Omnitracs Unveils New Device to Track Trailers

Omnitracs, a trucking technology company based in Dallas, has announced a new product called Trailer Tracks 150 for commercial carriers to track their trailers. It allows fleet owners to manage their inventory, keep cargo safe, and ensure that trailers don’t get dropped at an unauthorized site, according to the company.

While most Omnitracs products are located in the cab of the truck, this product is focused on real-time monitoring of trailers and containers.

“Fleet owners continue to struggle with a lack of real-time data related to their fleet, which results in the need to search for trailers, increasing their costs associated with driver time and fuel, as well as leaving them vulnerable to theft and misuse of trailers,” Jeff Champa, Omnitracs vice president of product management said in a statement.

Omnitracs provides technology to assist fleet management, routing, and predictive analytics solutions for private and for-hire fleets.
