Trucking & Logistics

A Challenging Environment

The operational and financial environment in the trucking industry has grown increasingly more challenging.  Supply chains have increased in both global scale and complexity, requiring the integration of multiple players in different corners of the world. The rise of lean manufacturing has led to more streamlined operations where each participant in the supply chain has only those components needed to complete its discrete task. These issues have become top drivers for logistics operators and trucking companies to achieve better asset visibility and improved coordination.  Remote asset management is becoming critical to success.

SkyBitz employs a variety of remote asset tags and associated intelligent sensors to monitor and report the location and the condition of trailer or container assets, onboard equipment and cargo. The flexibility and adaptability of SkyBitz solutions drive more informed decision making and operational processes as businesses seek to become more efficient and support growth.  These solutions lend themselves to a number of important applications to help you manage your business more effectively and profitably:

• In-Transit Visibility

  By enabling visibility of assets and cargo while on the move, SkyBitz helps improve customer satisfaction, helps better support just-in-time logistics, and increases customer trust by demonstrating continuous control of goods.

• Fleet dispatch Optimization

  By improving dispatching operations, SkyBitz reduces capital expenses for trailer purchases & leases, reduces fuel and staffing costs and ensures optimal operating conditions and efficiency.

• Remote Monitoring & Control

  By monitoring on-board equipment and cargo, SkyBitz helps companies reduce equipment costs, improve maintenance planning, limit liabilities for cargo loss and pre-empt operational failures.

• Supply Chain Management

  By increasing the accuracy of information regarding shipment status, SkyBitz helps cut costs by reducing inventories and lead times, reducing direct goods transportation costs and supports continuous supply chain optimization

• Safety & Security

  By constantly monitoring the location and status of trailer assets and cargo shipments, SkyBitz provides enhanced security protection for high-value loads, improves detection of terrorism and other malicious threats and improves stolen asset recovery.

Remote asset management provides a wide variety of benefits. These benefits quickly add up in dollars saved by reduction in capital expenditures and operating expenses, and dollars added due to improved competitiveness. Customers typically achieve full payback of a SkyBitz in investment within one year of installation.
