Wenda Company
Wenda is an innovative Italian startup supported by European investors. Founded in 2015, it aims to contribute to the construction of a safer and more sustainable Food system. Wenda is the only all-in-one collaborative Platform to govern Food traceability data from the cold and hot chain. Wenda is a collaborative Platform that automatically collects, analyzes and shares supply chain data, automatically integrating with existing measurement tools, data loggers and management, logistics and quality software available on the market and already in use in the customer company. In this way it provides decision support and statistics on temperature and traceability to each player in each specific supply chain. Wenda's multi-disciplinary team has a long experience in technology, in the management of corporate clients and in agile innovation methods (IoT solutions). It has developed key partnerships with Universities and leading European companies. Wenda mission is to contribute to the reduction of the Food waste by leveraging on the power of digitalization of the Food supply chain. At the same time, the company aims to contribute to the development of safety and traceability in the food system. Wenda developed an user-friendly, ease-to use and versatile Platform which automatically collects, controls, manages and shares food distribution supply chain data, integrating with measurement tools, data loggers and software (management, logistics and quality). The Platform responds to the food distribution companies needs for reduction of time and costs for the optimization of their processes and necessity of control of risk points. Wenda products can be widespread at a global level. The innovativeness of its technology, international vocation and its scalable business model make its solution the best one in allowing to effectively pursue its mission. Below is a list of the different features of the Platform. -Data management and integrity analytics: You can gain visibility into traceability and temperature data by controlling the main risk points in the supply chain. With the simple and easy-to-use all-in- one Platform, you can enhance your decision making and service level, cutting costs, optimizing time and increasing profits. -Document digitization and data storage: you can import the documents of each shipment, storage or goods entry, reducing storage time, quickly retrieving information and documents, receiving alerts and operational actions, sharing data with employees. All this from a single integrated and easy to use Platform. -Universal IoT Platform: The full potential of the Internet of Things (IoT) can be exploited to integrate all data loggers and measuring instruments already in use in the customer company or available on the market and to make them communicate with each other. In this way you can save time and ensure continuity with the technologies already in use, welcoming future developments. -Horizontal process management: You can increase your supply chain collaboration by working across the company and strengthening your connection with customers and suppliers. Thanks to multi-site management and multi-access control, you can choose with whom to share data in real time, allowing access to logistics, quality and management departments. This data can also be shared directly with suppliers and customers. -Blockchain, Big Data and Machine learning: the use of blockchain has three major benefits: transparency (everyone can visualize the information recorded on the blockchain), decentralization (blockchain operates on a network), security (data and transactions on the blockchain are encrypted). All the data gathered in the Platform form a huge quantity of data (Big Data): this improve the quality of decisions operators can make on the basis of that data, An additional help comes from the Machine Learning algorithm integrated in the Platform: the machine learns the best and most efficient way to manage processes and builds more and more refined models which can help operators in making decisions. A key goal of the Platform is to provide end-to-end supply chain visibility. This is why the Platform is organized into modules, allowing the customer to choose the ones needed for operations: taken individually, the modules manage temperature and heat and cold chain traceability in well-defined supply chain processes
