WATERLOO, Ontario — BlackBerry is providing tracking devices for 2,000 chassis in Canadian Pacific’s intermodal operations.
BlackBerry Radar is designed for use on chassis, containers, trailers, railcars, and other equipment, BlackBerry officials say, and “provides near real-time information and analytics on location, motion, mileage, utilization, dwell and turn times.”
BlackBerry Radar will allow shippers to track their freight using a cloud-based dashboard.
CP will install the tracking devices at its Vaughn Intermodal Terminal near Toronto.
“We’re excited about this collaboration with BlackBerry Radar and the potential benefits this technology will allow us to drive within our network,” says Jonathan Wahba, CP vice president of sales and marketing for intermodal and automotive.
