    Aug. 7, 2014

    Decker Truckline, Inc. has chosen Orbcomm  to supply a telematics solution for its fleet of 800 refrigerated trailers.

    Fort Dodge, IA-based Decker is a diversified carrier transporting flatbed, refrigerated and dry van freight throughout North America.

    Decker will use Orbcomm’s RT6000+, a two-way cold chain telematics device that provides comprehensive temperature, fuel management, maintenance, and logistical applications services.

    Orbcomm will also provide a web application with data reporting and analytics capabilities to increase in-transit visibility and efficiency.

    “Orbcomm is committed to working with partners such as Decker to achieve the maximum results with our telematics systems,” said David Gsell, senior vp & general manager of Orbcomm Solutions. “We expect to contribute directly to their bottom line, enable them to improve their customer support and achieve a strong and fast return on investment,

    “Decker will take advantage of our solution’s advanced features, like remote command and control of temperature and the ability to store up to 40,000 geofences on the device with automated configurable controls,” he added.
