Use cases

The problems people actually bring us.

Each one has the same shape: something is invisible, it costs money, and a tag makes it visible. No invented numbers — just what changes when you can see the asset.

USE CASE 01

Finding an asset that has gone missing

The problem

An asset is not where the register says it is and nobody knows when it moved.

The scenario

A generator booked out to one site turns up missing at the start of a job on another. The last person to sign for it left the company.

With Tagon

The tag on the generator has been reporting the whole time. Open the map, read the last position, and check the history to see when it moved and where it went.

On the platform

Live location, history playback, asset detail

What changes

The search becomes a lookup. Recovery starts the same day rather than after a stock count.

USE CASE 02

Knowing where a vehicle actually is

The problem

Dispatch is working from what drivers report, which arrives late and sometimes wrong.

The scenario

A customer calls asking where their delivery is. The answer today is a phone call to the driver and a guess.

With Tagon

The vehicle carries a tag. Position and movement history are on the same map as everything else you track.

On the platform

Live map, history playback, alerts

What changes

The question is answered from the screen instead of the phone.

USE CASE 03

Catching movement that should not happen

The problem

Assets used outside their assigned area, hours or agreement.

The scenario

A vehicle assigned to one region is being used somewhere else at the weekend.

With Tagon

Draw a geo-fence around the area the asset belongs to. Crossing it raises an alert.

On the platform

Geo-fences, alerts, history playback

What changes

You find out when it happens rather than when someone notices.

USE CASE 04

Tracking containers and trailers

The problem

Units spend most of their life off site and utilisation is estimated.

The scenario

Forty containers are in circulation. Nobody can say which are loaded, which are standing and which are late back.

With Tagon

An IP68 tag on every unit, geo-fences on every site, and dwell visible from the movement history.

On the platform

Live map, geo-fences, reports

What changes

Standing units become visible, and the fleet size conversation becomes a data conversation.

USE CASE 05

Keeping track of tools and small plant

The problem

Small, valuable assets are easy to remove and rarely missed until needed.

The scenario

A site loses a set of tools between two projects. The register still shows them in stores.

With Tagon

Tag the kit with formats small enough to hide inside it, then fence the site so an exit raises an alert.

On the platform

Asset management, geo-fences, alerts

What changes

Losses are caught at the boundary instead of at the stock count.

USE CASE 06

Tracking a consignment across borders

The problem

Coverage varies by country and carrier, so tracking goes quiet mid-trip.

The scenario

A high-value consignment moves through three carriers. Between the second and third, tracking stops updating for two days.

With Tagon

A tracking label on the carton reports independently of the carrier, for the length of the trip.

On the platform

Live location, alerts, reports

What changes

Item-level visibility that does not depend on the carrier's own system.

USE CASE 07

Seeing the whole chain, not one leg of it

The problem

Each carrier reports on its own leg. Nobody sees the whole journey.

The scenario

A shipment changes custody three times. Each handler has visibility of their part and none of the rest.

With Tagon

The tag travels with the goods, so the record is continuous regardless of who is carrying them.

On the platform

History playback, reports, API

What changes

One continuous record instead of three partial ones.

USE CASE 08

Recovering an asset after it is taken

The problem

Once an asset is gone, the cost is in locating it.

The scenario

A motorcycle is taken overnight. The frame carries a concealed tag.

With Tagon

The tag continues to report from inside the frame. Position and history support the recovery.

On the platform

Live location, history playback, alerts

What changes

A concealed tag keeps reporting when an obvious one would have been removed.

USE CASE 09

Knowing what is in the yard right now

The problem

Yard contents are established by walking the yard.

The scenario

A morning starts with somebody counting what is on site before work can be allocated.

With Tagon

Every unit is tagged and the yard is a geo-fence. The count is a screen.

On the platform

Live map, geo-fences, reports

What changes

The walk-around becomes a look at the dashboard.

USE CASE 10

Getting returnable assets back

The problem

Cages, cases and containers leak out of circulation a few at a time.

The scenario

Returnable packaging goes out full and comes back at a rate nobody has ever measured.

With Tagon

A 12-month adhesive tag on each unit and a geo-fence on the site turns leakage into a measurable number.

On the platform

Asset management, geo-fences, reports

What changes

Loss becomes visible, which is the first step to reducing it.

USE CASE 11

Locating financed collateral

The problem

A financed asset is one you own and someone else uses.

The scenario

Payments stop. The registered address is no longer current.

With Tagon

A concealed, high-capacity tag fitted at the point of finance keeps reporting, with geo-fencing on the agreed territory.

On the platform

Live location, geo-fences, history playback

What changes

Locating the collateral stops being the hard part of the process.

USE CASE 12

Measuring how hard rental assets work

The problem

Utilisation is reported, not measured.

The scenario

A rental fleet has units that are always out and units that never move, and no way to tell which is which.

With Tagon

Movement history across the tagged fleet shows what is working and what is standing.

On the platform

History playback, reports, asset management

What changes

Fleet decisions based on movement rather than on booking records.

USE CASE 13

Not losing wallets, bags and keys

The problem

The small things are the ones that go missing.

The scenario

A wallet, a laptop sleeve and a set of keys, all easy to leave behind.

With Tagon

A 2 mm card and a 32 mm disc, on the phone finder networks, with a sound you can trigger.

On the platform

Tagon App, Apple Find My, Android Find Hub

What changes

Found in the room, or found on the map.

USE CASE 14

Knowing a family member got there

The problem

Children and elderly family members need a tag that can be worn all day.

The scenario

A school run, a care home, a regular route.

With Tagon

A 9.2 mm pendant with a year of battery and a safe-area alert.

On the platform

Live location, geo-fences, alerts

What changes

An alert when a safe area is left, without a device anyone has to manage.

USE CASE 15

Finding a pet that has got out

The problem

A pet that gets out is found by walking the streets.

The scenario

A gate is left open.

With Tagon

A collar pendant with a geo-fence around home and an audible alert for the close-range search.

On the platform

Live location, geo-fences, audible alert

What changes

The search starts from a position rather than from the front door.

USE CASE 16

Protecting bikes and motorcycles

The problem

Two-wheelers are easy to move and hard to find.

The scenario

A motorcycle parked in a public space every day.

With Tagon

A 17 mm cylinder inside the frame, or a Find My accessory built into a bell, bar or reflector.

On the platform

Live location, geo-fences, history playback

What changes

The tag is part of the bike rather than attached to it.

Tell us which, and roughly how many assets are involved. We will tell you what we would fit and what it would take.

What to have ready

  • What you need to track, and roughly how many
  • Where those assets operate
  • Indoors, outdoors, or both
  • Any system the data needs to reach

That is usually enough for us to recommend a device and a deployment shape.
