PR Newswire MOUNTAIN VIEW, California, September 26, 2012

The company is the first to provide freight and logistics providers with a framework that smoothly works across all modes of transport MOUNTAIN VIEW, California,September 26, 2012/PRNewswire/ -- Based on its recent analysis of the machine to machine (M2M)-enabled freight intelligence solutions market for the cargo (airlines and shipping containers), Frost & Sullivan recognizes OnAsset Intelligence, Inc. (OnAsset) with the 2012 North American Frost & Sullivan Award for Customer Value Enhancement. In the face of stiff competition and thin margins, differentiating service offerings is imperative among global freight and logistics forwarders and OnAsset's M2M- enabled freight-tracking platform allows for easy and comprehensive freight intelligence. Combining its SENTRY hardware platform with its Vision™ software platform, OnAsset offers unique tracking solutions for all modes of freight, including ground-based trucking, inter-modal, ocean, and air travel. This ability directly maps into the immediate requirements of intricate supply chains involving multiple modes of transportation. "The unmatched capabilities of its SENTRY devices to monitor sensitive and time-critical cargos have ensured its entry into the airline space and leveraged its competitive position in the market," said Frost & Sullivan Research Analyst Rahul Vijayaraghavan. "The Vision platform has given customers an interface to monitor cargo on a continual basis and integrate internal systems to streamline operations and differentiate OnAsset from its competition." One of the key differentiators is the horizontal ability of OnAsset's solution suite. Maintaining one electronic board design for hardware with different form factors is possible because the SENTRY devices can be used for tracking any cargo on any kind of freight transport. The freight forwarders can buy one device for all modes of freight rather than having to manage different devices and train people on their uses. Furthermore, no tools are required for the installation of this device on the freight, reducing the number of human touch points, thereby reducing time delays for deployment. OnAsset's business-driven solution addresses some of the key areas of concern in the transportation supply chain, such as complete transparency of the freight in transit, thus reducing the liability for cargo misplacement. The solution suite is used internally by customers to improve operational efficiency and identify breakdowns in the logistics process. Other critical issues, such as delivery assurance and condition of the product, are also supported by OnAsset's solution. OnAsset cutting-edge SENTRY FlightSafe® has helped expand its reach in the airline space to track high-value and sensitive cargo. This FAA compliant technology ensures that the company is uniquely positioned to gain a majority of the airline cargo tracking market.
