Transportation Security and Safefreight's Trucking Technology - A Solution You Can Trust

Since 9/11, government and the transportation industry have been working hard to enhance security measures for the transportation of goods, including hazardous cargo, trans-border, intermodal and food-distribution shipments.

Trucking fleets and other transportation stakeholders are looking for low-cost systems that ensure security for cargo, vehicles, employees and the public, without compromising commerce and workflow.

Supply Chain Security and Fleet Administration the SmartFleet® Way 

Safefreight Technology has developed solutions that promise to enhance not only security and reduce risk, but also provide sufficient returns on investment through improved management, more productive operations, safety to motor carriers, and levelling or reductions in insurance rates.

With Safefreight’s SmartFleet® System, critical security and location information is collected by a vehicle-mounted SecurityGuard® device, communicated wirelessly by cellular and / or satellite, and served to the customer online via Safefreight’s internet application - SmartFleet® Manager.

Visibility On Demand Reduces Risk and Gives You Control

Safefreight’s integrated solutions provide a combination of onboard alarms, sensors, wireless monitoring and real-time tracking that responds immediately to cargo and security threats while also allowing fleet managers to more efficiently operate their fleets. 

The system provides security, tracking, monitoring, control and reporting capability for dry van and tank trailers as well as the power units that haul them. SmartFleet® effectively mitigates transportation security threats.

Commercial carriers and private fleets will benefit from the following features and services:

24/7 situational awareness by tracking the location and movement of mobile assets. Dispatch can send a query to determine the current or last position of a vehicle or trailer. Onboard hardware can also be programmed to report location information at any chosen time or distance interval. 

Enhanced route planning through more efficient, safe routing optimization. 

Security alert notification to pre-established key contacts when onboard sensors, including tamper, volumetric, door, radiation, temperature are tripped. 

Trailer disconnect notification when a trailer has been disconnected to its assigned truck, or if it is connected to an alien truck. 

Geo-fencing of mobile assets to provide a digital, geographic perimeter of security. Once this asset-centric fence is broken, an alert is immediately sent to notify key contacts of the breach. 

Geo-zoning a digital geographic boundary of any shape around high-risk areas such as nuclear facilities. If your vehicle crosses into the landmarked area, you’ll know about it instantly so that you can take immediate action. 

Panic buttons that alert dispatch or call centers to driver distress or emergency situations when the button is activated by the driver. 

Forensic software that provides a log of location, speed, working hours, idle time, alarms and vehicle history. 

Full integration of software and systems into existing platforms, along with training, support and resources that will ensure smooth transition for your business.
