When Transnational Logistics, Inc. (TLI), a subsidiary of InEx Group of Companies, faced increasing operational complexity in managing thousands of assets across multiple facilities, it became clear that traditional methods were no longer enough.
Partnering with Penxel Technologies, the company adopted Solomon Fixed Asset Management System (FAMS) — a transformative move that reshaped how InEx tracks, maintains, and optimizes its physical and digital assets across the Philippines.
The result: improved data accuracy, reduced audit time, and smarter, insight-driven asset decisions.
Client Background.
InEx was established in 1997, originally focusing on helping clients dispose of obsolete materials and manage non-moving inventory. Over the years, the company expanded its capabilities — evolving into one of the Philippines’ fastest-growing logistics and supply chain service providers for manufacturing companies.
Today, InEx Group operates through multiple business lines, including:
- Warehousing expertise and cold-chain management
- Toll packing and distribution
- Full fleet delivery and trucking
- Inbound and reverse logistics
- Sustainability and circular economy solutions
- 24/7 personalized assistance and technology-driven logistics
As of 2025, InEx celebrated the opening of a new warehouse in Carmona, Cavite, further expanding its operational footprint and demonstrating its continued growth trajectory.
With over 100 employees and a logistics network spanning multiple regions, InEx manages thousands of moving assets — from delivery vehicles and warehouse equipment to IT systems and tracking tools. Maintaining accuracy and accountability across this scale presents a major challenge, especially in a high-volume, time-critical industry.
That’s where TLI’s transformation journey with Solomon FAMS began.
The Challenge: Growing Complexity and Manual Bottlenecks
Before digital transformation, TLI managed its fixed assets through spreadsheets and manual records maintained independently by departments.
This created major inefficiencies:
- Inconsistent records: Each department kept its own version of asset data, often leading to discrepancies.
- Slow audits: Physical verification took an average of 3–5 days per site, disrupting operations.
- Manual depreciation: Finance teams relied on formulas and manual inputs, prone to human error.
- Limited visibility: Asset transfers between sites were difficult to trace in real time.
- Reactive maintenance: Equipment repairs often occurred after breakdowns, not through scheduled upkeep.
As TLI’s logistics network grew, these inefficiencies compounded. Missing records, delayed audits, and inaccurate reports affected both compliance and operational agility. Leadership recognized the need for a unified, automated, and transparent system — one that could scale alongside their business.
The Solution: Solomon Fixed Asset Management System (FAMS)
Penxel Technologies introduced Solomon FAMS, an intelligent fixed asset management platform built for scalability, compliance, and efficiency.
The platform centralized every aspect of TLI’s asset management process — enabling real-time visibility, automated reporting, and mobile-powered tracking.
Key Features Deployed
- Centralized Asset Registry: A single source of truth for all assets across departments and locations.
- QR & Barcode Tagging: Rapid on-site identification and verification.
- Automated Depreciation: Aligned with accounting standards for accurate monthly valuation.
- Cloud-Ready Access: Secure, remote access for management and finance teams.
- Role-Based Permissions: Controlled access ensures accountability for every data update.
- Comprehensive Reports: Real-time dashboards covering asset utilization, audit history, and depreciation trends.
Deployment was handled in a modular rollout, allowing departments to transition smoothly without workflow disruption.
Implementation Process
The transformation took place over six weeks, guided by Penxel’s step-by-step digital transition framework:
- Assessment and Planning:
- Penxel worked with TLI’s finance, logistics, and IT departments to map workflows and identify process gaps.
- Data Migration:
- Existing spreadsheet records were cleaned, validated, and imported into Solomon FAMS, ensuring a clean start.
- System Configuration:
- The system was tailored to TLI’s operations, incorporating custom depreciation rules and asset categories for logistics operations.
- Pilot Testing:
- A limited pilot phase in select sites validated data accuracy and ease of use.
- Training and Enablement:
- Hands-on training sessions equipped employees to manage assets, run reports, and use mobile scanning tools.
- Full Deployment:
- Once validated, the system went live across all active sites with real-time synchronization.
- Post-Deployment Support:
- A one-year warranty and continuous optimization ensured smooth adoption and long-term reliability.
The Results: Efficiency, Accuracy, and Control
The impact of Solomon FAMS was immediate and measurable.
- Audit Time Reduced by 70%
- Asset verification that once took several days per site can now be completed in hours using mobile QR scanning.
- 100% Data Consistency
- All departments now work from the same real-time data source, eliminating duplication and outdated versions.
- Financial Reporting in Minutes
- Automated depreciation and built-in analytics allow the finance team to generate monthly reports instantly.
- Improved Asset Utilization
- Data-driven visibility helped identify underused assets, optimizing resource allocation and reducing redundant purchases.
- 30% Reduction in Unplanned Downtime
- Preventive maintenance schedules reduced equipment failure incidents and improved operational uptime.
TLI’s management now benefits from full transparency and control, making it easier to plan budgets, forecast asset replacement, and ensure compliance.
Beyond the Numbers: A Foundation for Innovation
Solomon FAMS didn’t just modernize TLI’s asset management — it built a foundation for future innovation.
With its modular structure, TLI can expand the system to integrate:
- Fleet tracking for delivery and logistics vehicles.
- IoT-based asset monitoring for real-time equipment status.
- Predictive analytics to anticipate maintenance needs.
- ERP integration for seamless data flow between logistics and finance systems.
As InEx continues its nationwide expansion, Solomon FAMS provides the digital backbone for scalable, sustainable growth.
What This Means for Other Businesses
InEx’s transformation mirrors a growing reality across industries: as companies scale, manual systems can’t keep pace with data demands.
Organizations in logistics, manufacturing, or warehousing often face the same challenges — fragmented asset records, long audit cycles, and inaccurate reporting.
Solomon FAMS solves these pain points by combining automation, visibility, and accountability into one unified platform. Businesses using the system typically report:
- 60–80% reduction in audit time.
- Up to 100% elimination of duplicate records.
- Immediate visibility into asset performance and lifecycle status.
- Significant cost savings through optimized asset utilization.
It’s not just about digitalization — it’s about enabling smarter, faster, and more reliable decision-making.
The Takeaway: Data-Driven Operations for the Modern Enterprise
For InEx and TLI, adopting Solomon FAMS represented more than an operational upgrade — it was a strategic investment in data-driven efficiency.
The move from manual spreadsheets to automated intelligence gave the company better control, accountability, and foresight — all critical in the competitive logistics industry.
By integrating digital asset management into daily operations, TLI has positioned itself for sustained growth, continuous optimization, and enhanced customer trust.
As logistics, warehousing, and transport services across the Philippines continue to evolve, InEx stands as a prime example of how digital tools like Solomon FAMS can turn operational complexity into strategic clarity.
