Swing Transport has selected ORBCOMM as a partner to deliver wireless connectivity for trailer tracking of its more than 1,000 dry van trailers and a web-based analytics platform for fleet management.
According to the company, ORBCOMM’s solution will enable Swing Transport, a privately owned logistics company specializing in the transportation of time-sensitive freight in the southeastern U.S., to monitor its assets in real time. Swing Transport is using ORBCOMM’s GT1100 device. In addition, Swing Transport will integrate its trailer data, including starts and stops, with McLeod Software’s transportation management system software.
ORBCOMM is currently deploying its telematics system on Swing Transport’s trailers and expects to complete installation across its entire fleet by the end of the third quarter in 2014.
