Refrigerated and In-Cab ELD Compliance a Key to Transporting Perishable Products Safely

WOODCLIFF LAKE, N.J., March 04, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — I.D. Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:IDSY), a leading provider of enterprise asset management and industrial Internet of Things technology (IoT), today announced an agreement with Robert Heath Trucking for the deployment and installation of the PowerFleet for Logistics refrigerated and ELD compliant solutions.  Founded in 1939, Robert Heath Trucking is a leading middle market refrigerated trucking operation transporting highly sensitive food products throughout the central and western half of the United States.

“Having a great customer like Robert Heath deploy both our refrigerated trailer systems and our in-cab units with ELD is a testament to the value of our recent CarrierWeb acquisition,” said Norm Thomas, VP and GM of I.D. Systems’ Logistics Visibility group. “Robert Heath is known in the industry for their excellent customer service and efficient operations and we are proud to help them be successful,” Norm added.

The I.D. Systems ELD compliant solution is in-cab and powered by the LV9000 hardware device, which is an on-board solution that enables two-way communication with the driver and customized driver workflow.  The PowerFleet telematics solution automatically appends pertinent dispatch data from the customer’s workflow to the driver’s logs, which in turn reduces redundant driver input and helps eliminate possible log violations for inaccurate data.

The PowerFleetin-cab system also provides real-time positions with minute-by-minute reporting and real-time engine performance information such as speed, MPG, idle time, and fault codes.  This performance data can be used to benchmark driver performance and behavior and/or truck performance.  Additionally, the solution also supports ALK PC Miler truck-specific navigation, which then ties to the fleet’s dispatch information to automatically capture the address of the next stop – thus eliminating the need for drivers to enter data manually.

“Our motto has always been “America’s Best” and that is a promise to our customers on each and every load we haul. Our drivers are the key to making sure we follow through on that promise by maintaining our on-time service rating of greater than 98% and we’ve chosen PowerFleet for Logisticsto support our drivers in executing at that service level for our customers,” said Brent Shankle, Chief Operating Officer of Robert Heath.

The PowerFleet refrigerated solution is fully integrated with Carrier® Transicold® and Thermo King® microprocessors, and provides full, over the air reefer monitoring of temperature, alarms, operational status and changes.  In addition, the solution also provides GPS tracking, Two-way command and control to adjust reefer conditions as necessary from dispatch, landmarks for accurate reporting of arrival and departure times, fuel usage reporting by landmark, and dwell time reporting.

The recently acquired CarrierWeb operation is being integrated in the I.D. Systems Logistics Visibility group, becoming PowerFleet for Logistics. The complete bumper-to-bumper technologies include: in-cab with workflow, diagnostics and ELD; refrigerated trailer and container two-way management, dry van and intermodal container tracking technologies. In addition, there is a complete line of sensors for monitoring the status of both assets and cargo, as well as their new deep learning voice interface Lucy® application to help improve real-time decision making.

I.D. Systems Acquires CarrierWeb, Adds Key Technology, Increases Customer Base, and Enters New Market Segments

/in , /by

Company Positioned as Turnkey Logistics IoT Technology Provider

WOODCLIFF LAKE, N.J., Jan. 31, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — I.D. Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: IDSY), a leading provider of enterprise asset management and Industrial Internet of Things (IoT) technology, has acquired the U.S.-based assets of  telematics provider CarrierWeb, an Atlanta-based provider of real-time in-cab mobile communications technology, electronic logging devices (ELDs), two-way refrigerated command and control, and trailer tracking. CarrierWeb’s U.S.-based assets will be integrated into the I.D. Systems logistics visibility solutions group, called PowerFleet® for Logistics. The acquisition closed on January 30, 2019.Growth and Expansion
With the acquisition, I.D. Systems adds 9,000 net new subscribers to its platform. The acquisition allows I.D. Systems to offer a full complement of highly-integrated logistics technology solutions to its current customers and prospects, and immediately adds more than 70 customers, including the Customized Distribution Division of foodservice industry leader Performance Food Group (PFG).
“The CarrierWeb assets align with our strategy of expanding and strengthening our position in the fleet management value chain,” said Chris Wolfe, CEO of I.D. Systems. “The acquisition is immediately additive because it allows us to sell complete bumper-to-bumper telematics solutions, with higher monthly revenues, covering in-cab, refrigerated trailers, dry van and containers both to I.D. Systems’ existing customers as well as to potential customers whom we have not been able to address previously. Overall, this transaction allows us to address what the market and our customers have been asking for — a complete, fully-integrated offering.”An Unmatched Single Source of Fleet Management Tracking Technology
I.D. Systems and CarrierWeb offer complementary services that together allow for an unparalleled single source of fleet management tracking technology. The CarrierWeb solutions will be integrated into I.D. Systems’ recently launched line of logistics telemetry solutions, which include a suite of interoperable sensors, an interactive voice-user interface, and a first-of-its-kind image-based cargo visibility detector. These robust technological platforms enhanced I.D. Systems tracking, monitoring, and reporting capabilities to provide freight transportation providers, shippers and supply chain stakeholders with powerful insights to make smarter and faster decisions.
CarrierWeb’s patented technology is designed to better manage transportation workflow, streamline data operations and management for mobile communications. CarrierWeb’s key products offer a range of innovative solutions for truck, dry trailer, refrigerated trailer, and driver monitoring and management:

  • ReeferMate® is a standalone cost-effective solution that enables users to monitor and remotely manage refrigerated trailers and cargo;
  • CarrierMate™ is an advanced touch screen electronic on-board recorder / electronic logging device (AOBRD/ELD) that also provides a driver-preferred ELD for regulatory compliance.

I.D. Systems is committed to the integration and future development of the CarrierWeb technology platform. The new PowerFleet® for Logistics division is led by Norm Thomas, who joined I.D. Systems in 2018 from PeopleNet, where he led professional services, software engineering and integration technology. Previously, Thomas served as a senior executive at CarrierWeb, as well spent more than 10 years at U.S. Xpress in a range of senior roles, including Chief Technology Officer.
