In a growing number of industries, reusable containers made of plastic are replacing their cardboard counterparts for shipping certain products. However, manufacturers and distributors using such containers have found them hard to keep track of. To address this problem, TNT Logistics, a global supply-chain logistics provider, used the Microsoft .NET Compact Framework, Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Microsoft SQL Server 2000, and Microsoft Windows Mobile 2003 to develop and deploy a tracking solution for one of its customers. TNT Logistics also integrated the solution into its Matrix supply-chain execution system so the company can offer similar benefits to its entire customer base.
