Started with metal tags. Same problem, different surface.
Metalcraft has been making asset identification plates since 1950 — the kind of tag that survives a quarter-century on a piece of heavy equipment. When the same buyers started asking for software to read those tags at scale, ARK was the answer: digital identification for the same operators, the same assets, the same problem.
What carried over: the operator's-eye view, the bias toward durability, the assumption that the gear has to work in conditions that don't make allowances.
Three RFID products. Custom development. One accountable team.
Grey Trunk RFID is cloud asset tracking for the field. QuickTrack RFID is inventory management for warehouses. Custom Mobile RFID is the engagement when neither off-the-shelf product fits the floor. All three sit on the same engineering bench — the same people who feasibility-study your environment also write the code that runs in production.
- SOC 2 in flight · GDPR-ready
- iOS / Android · RFID sleds · Bluetooth handhelds
- ERP integration · identity · audit-grade logging
Sit in the yard first. Write the workflow second.
We don't build software in a vacuum. Every engagement starts with a feasibility study in the operator's actual environment — yard, warehouse, audit room. We watch how assets move before deciding what gets tagged, where readers go, and what the dashboard needs to surface. The workflow is the product. The software just makes it visible.
- Feasibility studies in your environment
- Pilot programs before full deployment
- Post-launch optimization and read-rate tuning
- Ongoing maintenance, not handoff-and-vanish
