The firm will use NIC-Place to track and monitor its customers’ assets, enable road carriers throughout Europe to safely share data, and optimise logistics processes all in one platform.
Frank Gosnell, Head of CI & Digitalisation, Healthcare at Yusen Logistics (UK), said, “Any mistakes in temperature tracking can cost money, negatively impact reputation and most importantly risk people’s health. We used to gather temperature reports from hauliers manually, which took too much time, and frustratingly, we often could only get this information after a trip was over.
“Thanks to FourKites, we can now proactively provide our clients with highly accurate real-time visibility into temperature at any time, no matter where our fleet is. This has significantly increased our credibility and skyrocketed our customer service.
“The custom alarms, from temperature deviations to door openings, are preventing costly delays and ensuring our customers’ goods arrive safely and pass every regulation. Additionally, onboarding hauliers to NIC-Place has been a dream. Both for us and our carriers, because it’s so easy and fast.”
