Sensitech Launches New IoT Supply Chain Monitoring Devices

February 26, 2021

Sensitech, a supply chain visibility provider, has expanded its suite of IoT devices to include air-carrier approved and non-lithium battery models for real-time tracking of shipments when cargo is traveling by plane. 

The family of TempTale GEO and VizCommTM View products support shipments including vaccines, pharmaceuticals and test kits with validated data, enabling accept/reject decision-making, regardless of how cargo is moving. Sensitech is a part of Carrier Global Corporation, a global provider of sustainable building and cold chain solutions.

“These multi-modal, real-time IoT solutions are available now and can quickly be in customers’ hands to enhance the in-transit visibility of their precious cargo. In fact, 90% of our orders are fulfilled within 48 hours,” said Mike Hurton, Vice President & General Manager at Sensitech.

Features of the devices include:

  • Real-time visibility for temperature and location, automated cGXP receiving processes, and expedited validated product release decisions meeting stringent
  • Electronic record-keeping requirements set by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the European Commission.
  • Non-lithium battery options for all modes of transportation for all industries – including air freight, extended trip lengths of up to 90 days and the capability of temperature controlled probed monitoring.
  • Increased in-transit logistics tracking granularity through integration with other business systems.

Data flows directly from the TempTale GEO and VizComm View products to the SensiWatch Platform, a cloud-based visibility solution, alerting users to in-transit events such as temperature excursions or trends, location delays or light events indicating that a truck or trailer door has opened. The Platform’s analytics engine provides real-time evidence and dashboard reporting to assess compliance and the trip’s performance.
