Geotab Partnership with Phillips Connect Asset Trackers

Geotab is ever expanding its suite of Fleet Management integrated partners. Phillips Connect asset trackers are a new addition and available today from your MyFleetistics>Quick Order menu. Phillips Connect has leveraged their patented technology in more than eight million IoT devices and now they have developed state of the art asset tracking solutions to solve a number of problems in the transportation industry.

Why do I need asset tracking?

These devices are specifically designed for harsh environments and all solutions are IP67-rated. They are built to withstand the real-world abuse that non-powered and powered assets, like trailers, endure on a daily basis. Asset tracking goes way beyond the simplicity of dots on a map. Phillips Connect asset trackers integrate sensors to monitor cargo status, location and usage data. This provides organizations with actionable data to find efficiencies and reduce costs. Integration into MyGeotab furnishes analytics and real-time alerts instantly allowing fleets to:

Instantly boost trailer/container/chassis utilization
Eliminate trailer/container/chassis loss and theft with a real-time view of its assets
Increase detention revenue by holding customers accountable for how long they hold onto every trailer/container/chassis
Reduce trailer/container/chassis maintenance costs by improving scheduled maintenance and enabling predictive maintenance insights
Automate yard checks
Enhance driver satisfaction by eliminating wasted time looking for trailers
Bill customers and perform maintenance based on hours or miles
