FlashTrak Maritime Service: Empowering Exporters and Importers with Shipment Visibility

As the supply chain faces ongoing challenges and potentially additional supply chain shocks, it is more important than ever to monitor and track your shipments through the supply chain. To better assist decision-makers in navigating through the rough seas brought on by the disruptive supply chain situation, DeltaTrak is now offering FlashTrak Maritime Service. This new service provides importers and exporters with shipment location visibility while at sea.

FlashTrak is DeltaTrak's leading cloud service that provides real-time monitoring for temperature, humidity, light and shock. Now, with its release, Maritime Service has been integrated with FlashTrak to provide visibility of ocean container vessel location, departure date and ETA to further empower customers with the information they need.

FlashTrak Maritime Service uses GPS positioning and automatic identification systems to show vessel location and estimated time of arrival. Typically once a container leaves the port, its whereabouts are unknown, but now DeltaTrak customers can confidently move forward with the necessary data to take action. The new service offers FlashTrak subscribers with end to end temperature and location data during ground and ocean transport. Other sensor data such as humidity, light and shock are also available, depending on the DeltaTrak Real Time Logger model used.

Now, you can proactively manage shipment location and conditions to reduce the risk of arrival delays and product loss due to temperature and humidity excursions. Additional light and shock sensors designed into the new 4G/5G Real-Time Loggers alert you to unplanned security access which reduces and averts potential product theft during transportation.

Knowing the location of a shipment, the estimated time of arrival (ETA), and delayed arrival period from the original schedule, allows for advanced insurance claims notification, scheduling of inspections and customer pick-ups. This knowledge enables decision-makers to quickly make informed choices regarding cargo disposition and potentially can even shift the line between profit and loss.

Ultimately, FlashTrak Maritime Service is designed to put you in a better position to answer the questions: Where is my shipment and when will it arrive?

You can visit DeltaTrak at Fruit Logistica 2022 Berlin, Germany April 5-7, 2022 in Hall 23, Stand A-11 for a free demonstration.

  • DeltaTrak’s Real Time Loggers have been a game changer for our trucking program. Having the ability to monitor temperature while trucks are in transit has given us peace of mind knowing the quality of our product has not been compromised. The alert notifications, light sensors, and GPS tracking are just some of the great features that have allowed us to make pro active decisions that have strengthened the integrity of our product. The FlashTrak Cloud Service is easy to use and is a great tool to compare and analyze data. The FlashTrak App is super convenient as well. We have used other reliable DeltaTrak products for many years and we were excited to see these added to their lineup!

  • When it comes to making sense of data (in the supply chain) we have found a partner in DeltaTrak. The fact that I could recharge the real-time logger and the dual batteries made a lot of sense to me. It was user friendly and easy to use. With the uncertainty and complexity of today's supply chain, having an effective chain of custody system is not only a clever idea, but a requirement for effective handling of perishable goods.

  • It is my pleasure to recommend DeltaTrak to your company. During these times of crisis, we were fortunate to work with DeltaTrak to source top of the line Non-Contact forehead thermometers and PPE supplies at a real market price.

    As a healthcare organization, we are a common target for price gouging and abusive practices from several vendors. With DeltaTrak, we found a partner that understands our needs and who always provide world class customer service.

  • Dear Fred, I would like express my appreciation for the good business relationship we have had during 2018. The excellent work of Mr. Jorge Hurtado has given me the confidence to continue maintaining our commercial relationship with the DeltaTrak brand.

    Mr. Jorge Hurtado's customer service efforts are outstanding, especially in finding solutions to the challenges that may arise in the commercial process. In my opinion Mr. Hurtado's professionalism is a model for any company, especially when the client is thousands of kilometers away from Modesto, CA. I look forward to strengthening our successful relationship into 2019.

  • Thank you Juan Solorzano for paying us a business call 4 years ago. The DeltaTrak brand is the majority of our Temp Recorder business. ALL our Walmart/Sam's orders carry the DeltaTrak Temp recorders for the past 4 years without a single problem with any Walmart DC. When you have a load of 18 different orders on a single truck and temp recorders on each order, WOW what a savings your DeltaTrak brand has save us.

  • This upcoming fall will mark our 4th full season using DeltaTrak recorders. They are competitively priced and the customer service is always exceptional. We have never had a customer issue with one of their units and we don’t expect to. We use a wide range of DeltaTrak products and we have been more than happy with every one of them.
