2026 IoT Asset Tracking & Visibility Award
Turning Real-Time Visibility Into Operational Control
Submission overview
![]()
The 2026 IoT Asset Tracking & Visibility Award recognizes connected technologies that give organizations accurate, timely insight into the location, condition, status, movement, custody, and utilization of physical assets. From equipment and tools to vehicles, inventory, containers, and high-value goods, these solutions help teams understand what they have, where it is, and how it is being used.
This award honors the organizations combining sensors, tags, positioning technologies, connectivity, software platforms, and analytics to improve asset visibility across real-world operations. Eligible solutions may use GPS, cellular, BLE, RFID, UWB, LPWAN, RTLS, or other connected technologies to monitor assets across facilities, job sites, warehouses, transportation networks, and supply chains.
If your solution helps organizations locate critical assets, monitor their condition, reduce loss, improve utilization, strengthen chain of custody, or automate asset-related workflows, this award is designed to recognize that work.
This award is a great fit if your solution
- Locates, identifies, or monitors physical assets across indoor or outdoor environments
- Provides real-time or near-real-time insight into asset location, condition, status, movement, or usage
- Reduces asset loss, downtime, manual tracking, search time, or operational delays
- Improves utilization, inventory accuracy, maintenance planning, logistics, or chain of custody
- Combines connected devices, sensors, tags, networks, software, or analytics to create actionable asset intelligence
