Summary/Abstract: The fourth industrial revolution is especially present in manufacturing processes. However, many technological solutions used in this area can also be successfully used on other levels. One of them is the armed forces. In the article, the authors analysed a process of the soldiers functioning in the course of the daily routine to indicate that it is possible to apply simple solutions in the field of electronic data collection and obtain measurable benefits. This is also how the main aim of the study was defined. The authors made a detailed analysis and evaluation of the selected process, pointing to its imperfections and proposing a solution that would optimize its most important parameters (time, reliability). The proposed solution, involving the use of proximity recorders made it possible to solve the research problem, i.e. to answer the question: is it possible and justified to support selected processes of the functioning of soldiers in a sub-unit with the use of modern logistics 4.0 tools? This allowed to verify the research hypothesis that the use of simple tools using new technologies can significantly im-prove the functioning of the examined process. The following research methods, tools and techniques were used: literature analysis, synthesis, observational method, statistical analysis, comparison and inference. The article consists of an introduction and then a review of the literature. The main part is a statistical study. Based on this, a possible solution to the identified shortcomings was proposed. The article ends with a summary and final conclusions.
