Asset-tracking by Halo Group
Halo specialises in tracking Assets, Worldwide
Asset-tracking refers to the positioning of Assets using self-powered Trackers. Essentially, anything that does not generate power while in use i.e. Trailers or generate insufficient power accessories i.e. Outboard Motors require an Asset Tracker for protection.
Asset trackers may simply provide a GPS postition or may be more advanced and incorporate sensory arrays to provide more data about the Asset to which they’re attached.
The following list is by no mean exhaustive but gives an idea of the wide range of applications for Asset Tracking solutions:

- Protection of deployed analytics-hardware
- Windfarm Assets Recovery

Example Application: sLock – Halo Group’s GPS Padlock:
- Client: Whiskey distillery. Produces high-value bottled liquor.
- The Problem: During transport from the distribution centre to stores theft of a few cases here and there was being noted.
- Complication: They use various road haulage operators to carry out logistics and do not own their own fleet. The introduction of a fixed system on a fleet of owned trailers was therefore not an option. Any solution needed to be portable.
- Solution: sLock –Halo Group’s GPS Padlock.
sLock looks and behaves like a regular high-security padlock but has some critical differences:
- sLock reports its location
- sLock reports everytime it’s unlocked
- sLock reports everytime it’s locked
Upon safe arrival at destination, the sLock is returned to the distribution centre for re-use.
Method:
- Once a truck is loaded, sLock is snapped onto the trailer’s doors. The key is given to the driver.
- The truck departs for its destination.
- Any heavy impact on the lock (attempted theft) is reported to key stakeholders immediately
- If the key is used to open the lock before its destination is reached, an alert is generated
About this product: sLocksLock is a reusable tracking padlock which is perfect for being used as an instantly deployable alarm system for anything that accepts a standard padlock. An ingenious tool for Asset Tracking & protection.
