## Summary

Adam Crossno, founder and CEO of OnAsset Intelligence, explains how his company provides real-time supply chain visibility for high-value assets, leveraging a history of modular RFID and cellular tracking technology. He details the shift from infrastructure-dependent RFID to autonomous, global tracking devices used in pharmaceuticals, aviation, and warehousing to ensure chain of custody and condition monitoring. Crossno emphasizes that successful IoT deployment requires customizing standardized hardware to specific customer needs rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions, and highlights the importance of edge computing for data filtering and sustainability. The discussion covers regulatory compliance, integration with legacy IT systems, and the strategic partnership between device manufacturers and software platforms to ensure data quality for decision-making.
