As important as its trucks, are Samworth's 160 temperature-controlled trailers and the company worked with MAN to boost performance in this area too. In ar temperature-controlled trailer, the absolute `must have' is obviously temperature control, so that was the focus for the team.
Samwortht trailer fleet is now monitored 24 hours a day for any anomalies in temperature, with fleet managers tracking every trailer on the road through a special web portal. Previously, this required a cumbersome combination of two packages, with even those unable to offer continuous real-time monitoring.
Now Samworth gets immediate updates on irregularties whenever and wherever they occur. saving valuable loads with the opportunity for near-instant rectif icatlon of a fault, or giving customers advance notice of any threat to an on-time delivery.
