Redwood Delivers Double-Digit Savings for RWI Logistics with RedwoodConnectâ„¢
RedwoodConnect™ integrates multiple supply chain technologies, eliminating costs, risks and months spent connecting systems manually
RedwoodConnectâ„¢, Redwood Logistics' proprietary flagship supply chain integration platform-as-a-service (iPaaS), saved solutions-oriented logistics service provider, RWI Logistics, 10% in operational overhead costs through new enterprise connectivity, operational efficiencies, automation and visibility. Designed to eliminate inefficiencies and streamline integration processes, RedwoodConnectâ„¢ seamlessly integrates multiple supply chain technologies, reducing costs, risks and hours spent connecting systems manually while also providing users with actionable data in real time.
"Redwood's Platform Services team stepped in and helped us identify ways to effectively cut operational costs, enable the expansion of our service capabilities and implement RedwoodConnectâ„¢, ultimately modernizing our business," said David Noone, RWI executive vice president & general manager. "RedwoodConnectâ„¢ has provided our company the foundation to achieve our growth strategy while providing automation and visibility across the entire supply chain network."
With the support of Redwood's Platform Services team and integration of RedwoodConnectâ„¢, RWI experienced dramatically improved connectivity between enterprise and cloud systems, as well as carrier EDI connectivity and real-time visibility to the integration pipelines that power a company's entire supply chain. With this level of connectivity, TMS operations, such as automated order entry, improved planning and optimization, integrated tracking activities and customer invoicing allow for substantial ROI across existing systems.
"RedwoodConnectâ„¢ eliminates delays and bottlenecks caused by outdated systems, which prior to integration would not communicate effectively," said Eric Rempel, chief innovation officer, Redwood. "Any company that manages complex logistics, whether for themselves or for others, can benefit from seeing every transaction and piece of data as it occurs and making adjustments as needed. This empowers companies to be proactive rather than reactive to any potential supply chain disruption resulting from incorrect data."
-Additional benefits of RedwoodConnectâ„¢:
- Customer-specific integrations that allow for custom business logic to be applied, reducing manual touch points and increasing customer retention.
- New updates delivered quickly to maintain ever-changing business integration requirements.
API-led architecture which enables nimble connectivity and powerful data-in-motion strategies to send any data, format or protocol.
- Easier onboarding and faster time-to-revenue / return-on-investment.
- Standardized business operation and automation.
- Quick scalability and enhanced data visibility to reduce impact on IT resources.

FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection
The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
