What are the advantages of IoT compared to simple Track & Trace?
EasyTrack helps you to track your goods easily
– Port-to-port tracking
– Near real-time and port-to-port tracking information
– Allows you to know a prediction of the date of arrival at the ports.
– Information on delays
IoTrack allows to get granular information in complex multimodal transportation.
– Condition monitoring at a high level of accuracy
– Complete independence for data capture
– Better anticipate and react in case of unforeseen events
– Complete end-to-end perspective
– Near Real-time visibility
What parameters are monitored with IoT?

How do I create value with the data I get?
At first the data is processed and qualified before being available on Safecube platform. Then there are many ways to create value from quality information:
– Route optimization: detailed analysis from lead-times per route and shipping lanes
– Working capital reduction: The flows optimization speeds up the process, gains in lead time and therefore reduces working capital.
– Insurance premium reduction: Reduce your insurance premium by proving that you have better control of your flows.
– Better customer relationship: With machine learning, get actionable and predictive ETA’s. Anticipate delays and synchronize operations for faster lead time to improve reliability for better customer relationship.
– Detention cost reduction: Get information on unloading activities in real-time to react faster and avoid sleeping containers

What level of integration with my SI is required for the service?
Can the tracking devices be reused?
How does the tracking works at sea, far from the coasts?
What transit benefits can be achieved through the tracking platform?
With reliable and up-to-date data you can analyse different information that allows you to reduce transit time, for example:
– A possible deviation
– Challenge carriers and see who is the best performer among others
– Analyse delays per line to see if it is possible to change the port of departure or arrival etc.
– Negotiate contracts with your carriers
– etc.
How to make the tool save users time when they will have to manage an additional platform on a daily basis?
There are several time-saving variants:
You don’t have to visit several websites of your forwarders or shipping companies, all information is gathered on our platform.
We can set up a daily report with all shipments with, for example, 2 days delay. This saves you visiting our platform or viewing all shipments but only tracking those with a significant delay. In addition, alerts are sent by email in case of incidents such as: failed transhipment, new transhipment, missed ship.
In addition, we have an API documentation that allows us to integrate with your management tool (e.g. ERP, TMS etc) and therefore automatically feed the data directly into your tool.
