The expansion broadens the international availability of the SenseAware service, and breaks down barriers for customers monitoring highly critical global supply chains.
SenseAware customers in Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland can now monitor the location of their shipments in near real-time, and keep a watch on environmental factors with the SenseAware service.
Customers in Canada, many of whom are already using the SenseAware service, will now benefit from expanded capabilities and availability in that nation.
With the expansion of the SenseAware service in Europe and Canada, customers in those countries will also have access to the FedEx ShipmentWatch service. FedEx ShipmentWatch, a service of FedEx Custom Critical, leverages SenseAware for a range of sensitive shipments, including one-time and non-FedEx shipments.
Launched in the United States in 2009, SenseAware combines an online application with a multi-sensor device to provide customers that ship high-value or environmentally-sensitive products with near real-time visibility, insight, and collaboration across supply chains. Besides location monitoring, the service can monitor temperature, light exposure, relative humidity, shock, and barometric pressure. The SenseAware 2000 device supports a dry ice probe that monitors temperatures ranging from –80° to +60° C (–112° to +140° F) and a cryogenic probe that can monitor shipments from –195° to +60° C (–319° to +140° F).
As SenseAware continues to expand service availability, updates will be posted at www.senseaware.com.
