Our Sales Director, Marcelo Salinas, appeared as a guest on Círculo Logístico TV, a program dedicated to exploring the future of the logistics industry in Mexico and other countries. Below are six of the key ideas discussed during the interview:

1. Technology has revolutionized the supply chain, both by optimizing costs and reducing incidents of theft; however, it is still necessary to implement protocols and processes to get the most out of it

2. There is a lack of understanding within the industry about how the technology works at a technical level, which breeds mistrust and slows down growth in this area

3. There are systems and technologies that help prevent theft of merchandise, both during transit and at distribution centers and factories. These include:

4. 1. RFID sensors installed in each unit
   2. Duo Anti-Jammer Technology (for communication and positioning) in tractor-trailers
   3. Anti-tampering technology that detects tampering and cable cuts
   4. Fifth-wheel lock to prevent unauthorized unhitching of the trailer
   5. Satellite or electromechanical device installed in the truck cab
   6. Door-opening sensors with automatic locks

5. Investment in truck security technology is minimal compared to the savings achieved by eliminating theft from operations. Logitrack has clients who have recouped their investment in security technology by preventing the theft of 1.5 trucks, equivalent to more than 3 million pesos.

6. Investment in technology must be accompanied by investment in staff training and the implementation of processes and protocols throughout the entire operation

7. The weak point of any technology is the human factor; the systems developed by Logitrack are designed to minimize the human element in safety
