Michigan-based industrial equipment supplier Gallagher-Kaiser (GK) is tracking its assets using technology from GearTrack.

GK selected GearTrack to track components during transport and delivery to improve supply chain transparency and on-time service, and to prevent theft.

Atlanta-based GearTrack is an intelligent supply chain management company that tracks critical assets across the value chain.

GK is a supplier of turnkey paint finishing systems, industrial and commercial HVAC, and mechanical automotive systems. GearTrack enables real-time visibility to enhance supply chain traceability and confidence for GK.

The technology was implemented and deployed for GK in days. The two organisations worked together ahead of deployment to ensure the system met all data and information security requirements, enhancing the integrity of Gallagher-Kaiser’s cyber-security systems.

“We are continually investing in cutting-edge technology that helps us deliver more value to our customers,” said Gallagher Kaiser vice president Shannon Watts. “GearTrack’s easy-to-use technology enables us to provide our customers with real-time visibility into the various locations of components, enhance the security of them while in transit and once they arrive on site, and offer the highest level of delivery service.”

GearTrack is designed to pair quickly and easily, associate and attach trackers to assets, reducing downtime during implementation. The technology creates an instant return on investment by empowering organisations to detect and respond to tampering, reduce the need for material reorders, and prevent spoilage and misplacement. It also provides fleet tracking, arrival and departure alerts, condition monitoring, and out-of-the-box analytics and reports for instant inventory reconciliation.

“We’re thrilled to partner with Gallagher-Kaiser to deliver greater transparency into their supply chain, both for their own track-and-traceability of components and for their customers,” said Ilan Gluck, CRO of GearTrack.

GearTrack has implemented its tracking for nearly 400,000 assets with over 20,000 sensors deployed for its customers to date.

GearTrack (geartrack.io), an intelligent supply chain management company, works with shippers to monitor and protect their most critical assets. Its easy-to-use, real-time asset tracking provides supply chain transparency, condition-sensitive goods monitoring, and high-value goods protection, and is designed to withstand rugged conditions.
