WABCO unveils new fleet management solution TX-TRAILERGUARD

Sept. 24, 2014
TX-TRAILERGUARD combines the functionalities of WABCO’s award-winning TrailerGUARD telematics solution with Transics International’s back-office software platform TX-CONNECT.

WABCO Holdings Inc., recently introduced its next-generation TX-TRAILERGUARD fleet management solution.

TX-TRAILERGUARD combines the functionalities of WABCO’s award-winning TrailerGUARD telematics solution with Transics International’s back-office software platform TX-CONNECT. TX-TRAILERGUARD is designed to help commercial vehicle fleet operators improve their vehicle fleets’ safety and efficiency performance while reducing cost.

TX-TRAILERGUARD marks the first product integration after WABCO acquired fleet management systems company Transics, a market leader in Europe, in February 2014. The innovative telematics solution integrates the comprehensive real-time data gathered from WABCO’s onboard advanced braking, stability control and efficiency systems with Transics’ back-office software, TX-CONNECT, and its related suite of telematics systems. TX-TRAILERGUARD enables effective truck, trailer, driver and cargo management in real time. The new integrated telematics system will be available from 2015.

WABCO’s TrailerGUARD telematics system, introduced in 2010, allows commercial vehicle fleets to monitor remotely a vehicle’s various operating data such as electronic braking system (EBS) performance, roll-over alerts, mileage, axle load, tire pressure, temperature inside a refrigerated trailer and door status, among other operating functions. In addition, TrailerGUARD offers remote diagnostics capabilities enabling fleets to schedule preventative maintenance. TX-CONNECT aggregates these newly available data streams into a single dispatcher view and related management reports, providing fleet operators additional insights to improve their fleets’ safety and efficiency performance.

Following the acquisition of Transics, WABCO has diligently advanced the integration and global expansion of fleet management solutions. As recently announced, WABCO signed a groundbreaking contract with Saudi-Arabia based Almarai, one of the world’s largest dairy companies. WABCO will equip Almarai’s entire long-haul vehicle fleet of more than 1,300 trucks with its industry-leading fleet management solutions.
