The chassis provider Direct Chassilink Inc. (DCLI) said on Wednesday that it adds GPS tracking technology to its fleet of more than 152,000 53 feet of domestic chassis.
The company based in Charlotte, North Carolina, is the largest chassis provider for marine and domestic containers in the USA and operates more than 415 locations near ports and depots. The Marine chassis fleet comprises approximately 138,000 units.
The upgrades start immediately with the expected completion until the end of 2026. The amount of the investment required to retrofit the fleet was not announced.
Real-time tracking technology provides precise location data as to whether the devices are used, stacked or otherwise idle. Sensors can signal that a container is mounted on a chassis, and geofencing technology can provide customers with warnings when you get in and out.
Increased visibility is expected to improve chassis use and better identify the available inventory. The technology offers customers continuous visibility, faster shooting times and streamlined billing.
“The equipment of our entire DCL53 chassis fleet with GPS technology is proof of our ongoing mission, to lead intermodal industry with innovative solutions and unprecedented fleet quality,” said Lee CEO from DCLI, Lee Newitt, in a press release.
DCLI said the technology would offer improved kilometers so that it can adhere to maintenance plans and avoid downtime for devices. DCLI can also better locate devices that can be found when inspecting the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration.
The company plans to use data that has been recorded to improve the equipment position in the entire network.
DCLI was cleared in 2009 by Maersk (Maersk-B.Co) and sold in 2012. It currently belongs to an investor consortium, including Canada's Omer infrastructure and GIC in Singapore.
