IRVINE, Calif. and RESTON, Va., Feb. 14,
2018 /PRNewswire/ -- CalAmp (Nasdaq: CAMP), a
telematics pioneer leading transformation in a global connected
economy, announced today that it has entered into a partnership
with CargoSense, a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) company that
provides logistics oversight for supply chain networks. This
partnership will deliver critical telematics information on
high-value, sensitive air cargo for one of the world's largest
global airlines headquartered in the
United States.
The solution will provide the global airline's customers with
real-time data and analytics through reports on valuable shipments
such as pharmaceuticals, wine, electronics, live freight and
perishables that require specific environmental monitoring during
transport.
"In supply chain logistics, the game changer is the ability to
monitor the health and status of air cargo using IoT solutions so
the global airline can provide value-added services and visibility
to its business customers and passengers," said Paul Washicko, senior vice president and general
manager of CalAmp's Software and Subscription Services business.
"We are pioneering an effective and efficient way of maintaining
control and monitoring the condition of high-value cargo with
detailed real-time environmental data to optimize safe transport
from departure to arrival."
The CargoSense platform will ingest pre-, post- and in-flight
data collected from CalAmp's SC1000 and SC1100 telematics
gateways and iOn Tag™ smart sensor tags that monitor location,
temperature, humidity, shock, light and vibration. CargoSense
analyzes the aggregated data from the sensor devices via an API
feed from the CalAmp platform to detect critical environmental
conditions and movement patterns from one flight segment to the
next. This provides the global airline with granular information
and greater insight into shipment processes and assists in meeting
mandatory reporting requirements on high-value cargo.
"Being able to provide peace of mind and ensuring trust is
imperative for airline customers shipping valuable goods," said
CargoSense's CEO, Richard Kilmer.
"Through our partnership with CalAmp, the global airline will gain
real-time insights into the exact status of all its cargo through
our comprehensive logistics solution that is unparalleled in
transport monitoring today."
