Blecon is a Bluetooth-based asset tracking and supply chain visibility platform designed to leverage frontline devices for real-time monitoring of assets and their conditions. By utilizing devices that teams already carry, such as smartphones or tablets, Blecon transforms them into BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) tracking agents, eliminating the need for additional readers, scanners, or gateways. This approach enables organizations to continuously capture ambient data on asset location and condition without changing existing staff workflows or installing extra infrastructure.
The system consists of several components: asset tags, the Blecon Agent, and tracking software. Asset tags come in various forms—including Label, Micro, and Logging Tags—that attach to assets indoors or outdoors. These tags continuously record location and sensor data, such as temperature and humidity. For assets that move outside of network coverage, Logging Tags store timestamped sensor data locally and upload the full record when back in range, ensuring no data is lost during transit or in remote environments.
Blecon Agent runs in the background on frontline devices, automatically collecting tag signals as staff move through different locations, from warehouses and hospital wards to vehicle cabs and customer sites. The tracking software provides a centralized operations platform, displaying live asset locations and conditions, managing zones and operational rules, and configuring alerts. Alerts can be set up for specific operational events, such as temperature breaches, unauthorized asset movement, or overdue returns, and are routed immediately to the appropriate people or systems based on customizable thresholds.
The platform is suited for a variety of supply chain and operational scenarios, including tracking returnable transport items like pallets and totes, monitoring cold chain conditions, managing inter-site shipments, and overseeing tools and equipment usage. Blecon also offers secure hotspot and network infrastructure services, supports both off-the-shelf and custom embedded beacons, and allows integration with any cloud service, giving users full control over their data and infrastructure. Evaluation kits are available for organizations interested in testing the system.
In the Business & Operations space, Blecon takes a focused approach. It focuses on tracking and monitoring assets and supply chain conditions in real time across distributed locations. It is built as a B2B product for supply chain managers and logistics teams. Blecon is available on the web.
Key capabilities include asset tracking, supply chain visibility, and bluetooth integration. It exposes integrations via a public API.
