Phillips Connect is partnering with Velociti to help support and monitor its trailer telematics solutions, the company announced July 27.
Velociti provides solutions and support services for a broad range of transportation and networking technologies. Phillips tasked the company with the installation, post-deployment monitoring and repair service support for its trailer telematics solutions.
“We are proud to partner with Phillips Connect who share a commitment to the industry and value forward-thinking ideas,” Ryan Powell, senior vice president of Velociti, said in a statement. “Our goal is to build mutually beneficial partnerships and deliver the best-in-class customer experience, both of which are achieved with this alliance.”

The new partnership will integrate Phillips Connect asset health monitoring with Velociti’s VeloCare. Phillips’ customers will first choose a trailer solution for their operations. From there, a designated Velociti Project Manager will arrange for the installation of the equipment.
The equipment will begin continuously reporting data from all the systems being monitored. The Phillips Connect dashboard will send alerts if any problems arise. Velociti will then dispatch a technician if the problem requires repair.
“We realize that just knowing about a problem is only a first step,” Jim Epler, executive vice president of Phillips Connect, said in a statement. “There needs to be a way to resolve the problem quickly and efficiently to maximize the benefits of the technology. Velociti has the experience, the systems and the skills to work that out and get the trailer back on the road.” — Transport Topics
