agree  Werner Walther: Warum schreibst Du nicht gleich just in time? Das heißt auf deutsch (ja - auf Deutsch = Ingenieur-Deutsch Just-in-time-Belieferung.

  -> Danke Werner :) Es ist Tatsache, das wir Ingenieure fremde Begrife gerne adoptieren, soll es English oder Japanish sein, Hauptsache es klingt gut.
agree  Rolf Buesken (X): Manchmal ist das Original dubios. Mir scheint, der Ausdruck 'trackside' kommt von Marketing-Leuten und ist eigentlich 'sinnlos'.

Explanation:
I suppose that "track" would not refer to any specific type of tracks (railways, streets, rivers, airways), but more to the procurement of components. So I propose:

the logistics associated with delivering components trackside have (been) simplified ..
=>
Die mit der Bauteile-Anlieferung verbundenen logistischen Probleme wurden über die ganze Lieferkette entlang vereinfacht.

Durch die Ermöglichung einer genauen und fortlaufenden Verfolgung und Aufspürung von Kisten, Containern und Paletten werden GNSS-Dienste in Verbindung mit anderen Technologien wie RFID (Radio Frequency Identification Devices) das Management der Lieferketten und das Flottenmanagement bei allen Verkehrsträgern sowohl im Nah- als auch im Fernverkehr verbessern.
By enabling accurate and continuous tracking and tracing of boxes, containers or pallets, GNSS, coupled with other technologies such as Radio Frequency Identification Devices, is improving the management of supply chains and fleet management for all transport modes both in urban areas and for long distance journeys

  -> Danke!
agree  Werner Walther: Eine der möglichen Varianten - die etwas weitere Bedeutung. Die engere Bedeutung wäre an das Fließband für trackside, das würde man aber auf Deutsch wohl zu Gunsten von Just-in-time-Belieferung zurückstellen.

  -> Danke! Deswegen habe ich auch weiter gedacht.
