Schmitz Cargobull and Trimble cooperate for controlled data management

Via Schmitz Cargobull's TrailerConnect® Data Management Center, freight forwarders can provide their customers with order-relevant data in a controlled and secure manner.
To enable freight forwarders to use existing real-time data even more effectively, Schmitz Cargobull relies on strategic partnerships with established technology providers to offer solutions for optimised and fast data exchange. Trimble, a leading provider of high-precision positioning technology, mobile communication and software, is now also on board. 

Full transparency and controlled sharing of selected data 

"Transparency along the entire logistics chain is the basis for our customers to design their processes individually and as efficiently as possible. The cooperation between Schmitz Cargobull and Trimble is another step towards digitally supported, high supply chain transparency,” says Adrien Nivard, Channel Manager EMEA and Sören Danielsen, Manager Strategy & Business Development at Schmitz Cargobull.  

Integration with the Schmitz Cargobull Data Management Center provides Trimble customers with a clear, detailed overview of important truck and trailer data on one platform without the need to install additional hardware. This allows important truck and trailer data to be automatically transferred to and displayed on Trimble's platform. The integration also offers the possibility to send the data to the end customer's transport management system, which improves their logistics and dispatching processes. This is an ideal solution for mixed fleet operations. 

Danielsen adds: "With the Data Management Center, hauliers have full control over their data and can pass on selected data to third parties in an efficient way. By intelligently linking information on the vehicle, tour and order, more than just position and temperature data can be selected, processed and transmitted to third-party systems at the touch of a button in future. The TrailerConnect® Data Management Center stands for connectivity and transparency. Everyone involved along the supply chain benefits from this."

Since 2018, Schmitz Cargobull has been equipping all box semi-trailers and curtainsiders with the TrailerConnect® telematics system as standard under the slogan ‘100% SMART’. With the availability of trailer telematics data, Schmitz Cargobull is continuing to drive forward the digital transformation of the industry and is creating a broad basis for the optimal control of a networked and integrated logistics chain for greater efficiency and low total cost of ownership (TCO). If a customer uses a so-called third-party system, it is possible to securely transfer the data to third-party systems such as Transport Management Systems (TMS) or Real Time Visibility Platforms (RTVP) via the Data Management Centre (DMC), which has been integrated into the TrailerConnect® portal. 

The number of partners regarding the interface connection via the Data Management Centre is growing steadily.
