2 is a version of entire that has been specifically designed for transport operations. The system supports tyre tracking on all transport vehicles to reduce costs and improve safety. Easy to use Tyre information is entered into from service sheets collected from the field. entire Wheels utilises drag drop data entry, providing the user with a user friendly interface that will track tyre location and performance by simply dragging tyres onto functional regions on the screen. Relatively inexperienced operators are able to operate the system quickly and efficiently. entire can be configured specifically to your requirements, including or excluding various features. Comprehensive online help is also available to the user at any time.

Manage tyre warranty claims Warranty claims require justification so that operational problems can be identified and separated from tyre with manufacturer faults. When justifying a warranty claim, entire Wheels can provide the user with a complete, accurate history of any tyre in the system including pressure and tread readings, total life (km/miles/hours), fitment positions and removal reasons. entire Wheels can also analyse the difference between your claim amount and settled amount, to be used when negotiating with suppliers. Photographs of tyre damage can be stored within entire and printed out along with the tyre history record for manufacturer appraisal. Powerful and fast System configuration Fully Audited entire is audited, tracking every addition or adjustment made in the system and marking each change with the user s name, date and time. This discourages people with access to the system from falsely modifying the data within it. An accurate audit trail is also vital for the integrity of the system and to satisfy the audit requirements of your organisation. entire utilises the Microsoft SQL Server Database and is fully expandable from a single user system to a large centralised multi-site, multi-user implementation with hundreds of online users. entire databases can contain multiple sites with gigabytes of information. Easily configurable entire allows you define every aspect of your system including scrap reasons, tyre sizes, repair types, users, tread and pressure units, distance units etc. Full tyre audit trail of changes and additions Software 2

4 Password Protected and Secure entire is fully password protected ensuring that unauthorised entry into entire extremely difficult. powerful and efficient user interface (Wheel Action Centre) Comprehensive tyre histories entire records a comprehensive history of each tyre used in your operations. Simply double clicking any entire tyre history User security and system access entire allows different levels of access depending on the requirements of the user.

User friendly, drag drop interface tyre on the screen will display a full technical and operational history. Breakdown of tyre life The life of each tyre is tracked throughout each transport operation and fitment to vehicles. Operational time on each vehicle, position and location is calculated. is operated by dragging tyres on and off vehicles and between locations using a A full life breakdown of each tyre Wheel Action Centre (data entry screen) Software 3

5 Extensive and powerful reporting Retread Analysis entire can track a retread using two methods which include: Tracking a single casing and multiple retreads through the life of the casing Treading a retread as a new tyre and only tracking the life of that single retread.

The system tracks individual tyres throughout the factory process using RFID Tags. Tyres are logged in and out of each station, while updating a central information store so the factory processes can be monitored and controlled from a central location. Multiple factories can be connected and controlled by the system with large wall displays of each station and process. This unique software will allow a single factory to process multiple brand/grade retreads, based on the quality of casings it receives. Screen displays and input at each station is linked to a central system that centralises and monitors every aspect of a retreading factory. Please request a brochure on entire Retreading if you require further information. entire Technical Support entire is designed to be managed completely inhouse, by the customer, with no intervention from VMC staff.
