“Full Visibility. Zero Loss. Intelligent Returnable Trolley Management with SmartRun.”

A Tier-1 Automotive Clutch Manufacturer, operating a high volume production environment, depended on the Timely Return and Availability of Customer Bound Trolleys to keep production running. Without Structured Tracking or Maintenance Visibility, the plant faced recurring Asset Loss, Delayed Returns, and avoidable Operational Disruption  all tracked manually on paper.

SmartRun deployed a fully digitized QR Based Trolley Management Solution that enables End to End Lifecycle Control, from dispatch to customer return, integrating Real Time Tracking, Condition Monitoring, and Dispatch Interlocks within a centralized platform, built to the manufacturer’s own quality and traceability standards.

The Business Challenge

  • Lack of real-time tracking made it difficult to monitor trolley movement and current location.
  • Frequent delays and misplaced trolleys increased operational costs and affected production continuity.
  • Paper-based tracking resulted in inaccurate records, manual errors, and inefficient asset management.
  • Absence of automated maintenance schedules caused missed servicing and unexpected downtime.
  • Damaged or unserviced trolleys could be dispatched due to the lack of approval controls.

Solution Implemented

  • Implemented QR code-based tracking for complete visibility throughout the trolley lifecycle.
  • Enabled IN-OUT scanning using PDA devices integrated with invoice validation.
  • Provided centralized dashboards displaying trolley status, location, movement history, and availability.
  • Automated maintenance schedules with timely alerts to improve asset reliability and lifecycle management.
  • Blocked damaged or maintenance-pending trolleys from dispatch until approval and clearance.

Results

  • 90% Reduction in trolley misplacement incidents
  • 100% Trolleys tracked in real time across the lifecycle
  • 35% Fewer unplanned maintenance stoppages
  • 0 Unapproved dispatches of damaged trolleys since go-live
