Volan Technology & UPS Healthcare: A New Era of Precision in Cold Chain Logistics

Cold chain storage is essential for maintaining the integrity of temperature-sensitive products like vaccines, biologics, and specialty medications. But traditional tracking methods can’t keep up with the demands of modern logistics. Volan Technology solves this challenge by delivering real-time location intelligence inside complex facilities, helping pharmaceutical and healthcare providers reduce risk, ensure compliance, and act fast when every second—and every degree—counts.

Volan’s real-time location system (RTLS) brings automation, precision, and full visibility to airport safety compliance by replacing outdated manual systems with digital tracking. The platform delivers time-stamped data across all operational zones, helping airports prevent incidents, streamline emergency response, and meet FAA standards with ease. Volan supports the FAA’s new Safety Management System (SMS) rule by providing real-time analytics that identify hazards, manage risks, and improve accountability. With rapid installation, no infrastructure disruption, and fast ROI, Volan empowers airports to modernize safety operations efficiently.

When UPS Healthcare deployed Volan’s real-time asset tracking system, they gained more than just visibility—they unlocked a powerful engine for operational transformation. In one of the world’s most demanding logistics environments, Volan’s wireless platform delivered immediate results: faster workflows, smarter resource allocation, and full compliance visibility in real time. CEO Michael Bettua explains how this success story is just the beginning for industries looking to optimize complex operations.

A delivery driver drove onto the O’Hare tarmac and spent 10 minutes unchallenged in a live operations zone. This wasn’t an isolated mistake—it was a warning. Every airport is vulnerable to the same failures. The only question is: will you be ready when it happens at your airport?

Real-time asset tracking gives you instant visibility into your equipment and inventory—helping you optimize workflows, reduce delays, and protect high-value assets. From hospitals to warehouses to cold chain logistics, learn how this powerful technology is transforming operations.

Volan Technology has joined forces with UPS Healthcare to elevate the precision and reliability of cold chain logistics. By deploying Volan’s real-time location system at a flagship facility, UPS now benefits from live tracking, automated alerts, and AI-powered efficiency. This partnership sets a new standard for safeguarding temperature-sensitive pharmaceuticals from warehouse to delivery.

In today’s high-speed logistics and warehouse environments, the outdated reliance on walkie-talkies to locate forklifts creates costly inefficiencies. Lost equipment, delayed assignments, and poor communication can waste up to 30% of labor time, dragging down productivity and profits. Real-time location systems (RTLS) like Volan’s platform eliminate these gaps, offering instant visibility into forklift positions, task statuses, and operational flow. By replacing guesswork with real-time intelligence, warehouses can drastically reduce downtime, improve safety, and gain a major competitive edge.

Airline delays often start with a delayed servicing vehicle, like a fuel truck that is not where it is supposed to be—and a  scramble to find it using walkie-talkies. Despite managing thousands of ground service vehicles, most airports still rely on outdated communication methods that waste time, money, and fuel. Volan Technology brings real-time visibility to these “invisible fleets,” helping airlines optimize equipment usage, reduce delays, and unlock major operational savings. It’s a simple solution to a billion-dollar problem.
