We started with a clear vision: real-time WIP tracking. We worked with Viren and Petr, who combined RTLS + Digital Twins to deliver something far more valuable. Our WIP visibility project became a fully realized Digital Signoff system, FDA-compliant, audit-ready, and fully integrated with our SAP. They went beyond “tracking” WIP; they converted location events into operational confirmations, traceability records, and compliance-grade workflows we didn't know were within reach of this project. Their consulting depth and frameworks were impressive. They supported us with ROI, a fundable business case, and a change management approach that transformed how Philips thinks about location data entirely. "LocaXion Intelligence" instead of location data. The dashboards are actually believable – and we’re expanding this project into flow management, bottleneck isolation, and continuous improvement. What also stood out was their transparency and price arbitrage. Unlike RTLS OEMs or hardware vendors with a product to push, LocaXion came in technology-agnostic, laid out tradeoffs honestly, and steered us toward the right architecture. That kind of integrity is refreshing.

I sponsored an RTLS program at the corporate level and worked closely with Viren, who leads LocaXion. Viren’s approach was different and more structured than anything we heard from RTLS vendors. He drove the program using a step-by-step framework: Visualize, Measure, Maximize. Viren took the initiative to push a clear vision (that we didn't know we needed) - TRACKING is insufficient - DIGITAL TWIN is needed to build a DECISION system for intralogistics and What-If scenario testing. We learned the hard way. An earlier Bluetooth-based system looked fine in a demo and then fell apart in production, especially around metal, reflections, and day-to-day variability. On the commercial side, they were also unusually transparent. They helped us run vendor selection like an engineering decision, clear criteria, clear tradeoffs, and the willingness to recommend against options that would not hold up under our constraints. They also supported the internal work that actually determines scale: ROI assumptions, sensitivity drivers, and a phased roadmap packaged for leadership approval.
