Company to highlight expanded offering
including the addition of wireless connectivity services, new
mobile app and GAMP 5 approval at IAA Commercial Vehicles show in
Germany
ORBCOMM Inc. (Nasdaq:ORBC), a global provider of
Machine-to-Machine (M2M) and Internet of Things (IoT) solutions,
today announced that it has enhanced its cold chain compliance
solution for the European refrigerated transportation market. In
addition to industry-leading temperature recorders, sensors and the
ColdChainView web application, ORBCOMM’s comprehensive solution now
includes connectivity services from some of the largest providers
of terrestrial services in Europe as well as a new mobile app. By
enabling precise temperature monitoring, fuel management,
preventive maintenance and remote control for food, pharmaceuticals
and other temperature-controlled cargo, ORBCOMM helps customers
improve end-to-end operations and gain total assurance from the
product’s origin to destination.
As part of its cold chain compliance solution, ORBCOMM offers
the Euroscan X3 temperature recorder as well as the
Euroscan MX2 two-way monitoring and control device, which
can be used with a wide range of transport assets, including
gensets, railcars, ocean containers, straight trucks and trailers.
Featuring an integrated printer and easy-to-use interface, the
Euroscan X3 delivers printed or electronic temperature records,
real-time event-based alerts, advanced reports and analytics on
asset performance and utilization, geofences, and more, on demand
for temperature-controlled cargo. The Euroscan MX2 tracks the
location of refrigerated assets and provides real-time alerts when
specific conditions are detected, such as geofence access,
intrusion detection, temperature alarms, and more. It also provides
a direct interface to cold chain Original Equipment Manufacturer
(OEM) microprocessors to facilitate installation and use.
Both of these versatile devices can be integrated with ORBCOMM’s
ColdChainView, enabling customers to receive and manage
critical asset location, temperature, and status information
through the device’s built-in display or directly through the web
application to ensure timely corrective measures are taken when
needed. With ORBCOMM’s end-to end telematics solution, customers
can ensure proof of an uninterrupted cold chain, optimize asset
performance and enable more efficient business planning for
refrigerated transportation operations throughout Europe.
ColdChainView is also available through the new ORBCOMMmobile
app, enabling customers to manage their refrigerated assets on the
go from any mobile device. ORBCOMM’s mobile app runs on both iOS
and Android devices to facilitate easy access to real-time asset
data and key metrics.
As part of its end-to-end solution offering, ORBCOMM is now able
to provide terrestrial connectivity services in Europe through
partnerships with leading global wireless carriers, T-Mobile and
Telefonica. These unique partnerships enable ORBCOMM to offer
cost-effective terrestrial services with flexible data plans to
meet customers’ specific application requirements.
“From hardware and sensors to a robust web application to
wireless connectivity, ORBCOMM’s newly enhanced cold chain
compliance solution gives customers in Europe everything they need
for real-time management and control of their cold chain transport
operations,” said Marc Eisenberg, ORBCOMM’s Chief Executive
Officer. “By utilizing our ROI-driven solution, customers can
maximize operational efficiency and ensure that products moving
along the cold chain meet regulatory compliance and maintain
integrity, which significantly reduces claims over cargo loss and
damage.”
In addition, ORBCOMM recently received the Good Automated
Manufacturing Practice (GAMP® 5) official certification of approval
from the European Institute for Pharma Logistics (EIPL) for its
cold chain compliance solution for the European market. This
approval confirms that select ORBCOMM products offer a reliable,
cost-efficient choice for customers that need to gain complete
traceability of their operations, report storage conditions,
including deviations in temperature settings, and protect the
quality and integrity of their refrigerated assets throughout the
European supply chain.

solution, please visit us at the 66TH IAA Commercial Vehicles trade
