WATERLOO, Ontario, Feb. 4, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- BlackBerry
Limited (NYSE: BB; TSX: BB) announced today that the BlackBerry
Radar solution now integrates with Trimble's TMW.Suite and
TruckMate transportation management system (TMS) solutions.
The new offering is available now for commercial carriers,
dedicated fleets, private fleets, brokers and 3PLs using TMW.Suite
or TruckMate software.
BlackBerry Radar is an easy-to-install asset monitoring solution
for trailers, chassis, and containers that provides information
data around utilization, location, motion, mileage, door open/close
status, and cargo capacity utilization through an intuitive online
dashboard. Data is transmitted and stored securely on a cloud
platform designed to maintain the privacy of user information.
TMW.Suite and TruckMate provide visibility into order-entry,
load-booking, dispatch and driver settlement, detention and service
failures, as well as many other processes so that business owners
can manage their fleets based on data-driven intelligence.
Through the integration, fleet owners will be able to receive
data on their trailers, chassis or containers' location, route,
door status, and cargo load state integrated within the TMW.Suite
or TruckMate TMS software.
"The integration of our TMW.Suite and TruckMate solutions with
BlackBerry Radar provides a seamless experience for drivers,
dispatchers and fleet managers alike," said Jay Delaney, Senior Director, Product Management
for Trimble Transportation. "With BlackBerry Radar, fleet managers
can achieve unparalleled visibility into their cargo assets from a
single dashboard that they can use to unlock excess shipping
capacity and improve profitability."
"BlackBerry Radar offers fleet operators unique benefits to help
them manage their operations more effectively, reduce costs and
offer customers more value," said Christopher Plaat, Senior Vice President and
General Manager of BlackBerry Radar. "We're thrilled to extend
these benefits to Trimble's TMS customers. Accessing the critical
information and insights that BlackBerry Radar is able to provide,
from right inside Trimble's solutions, will no doubt lead to
significant technological efficiencies for the countless employees
at freight brokerages, 3PLs, shippers and fleets who rely on these
systems for their day-to-day operations."
Each BlackBerry Radar device offers an easy install, giving
business owners virtually instantaneous access to a secure
cloud-based dashboard. The solution includes everything necessary
