Toes with us very nicely, rns - tick, container 42 - tick, U.S - tick, container/freight - tick.
Think the two dovetail really well
Here's a brief overview of what the US administration is attempting to do to help overcome their domestic issues. The Biden-Harris Supply Chain Disruptions Task Force has been set up to : act as an honest broker to encourage companies to start collaborating. Many have responded to this call, recognizing that a once-in-a-century pandemic requires everyone to do their part to support the nation’s economic recovery.
Moving all links in the supply chain simultaneously doesn’t happen overnight, but the actions being taken by every link in the chain will make a difference. These actions are starting to clear the backlogs and break down the barriers that have made it hard to move this unprecedented volume of goods.
The US administration will also continue to track how well their nation’s transportation and logistics supply chain is handling this increased flow. This requires a goods movement chain that is more resilient, fluid, and can operate at a higher velocity. The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, is designed to make the fundamental changes that are long overdue. This will be achieved by improving supply chain visibility and optimization through real-time IoT cargo monitoring and tracking which will uncover inefficiencies in the flow of goods, finances and information. Their aim is to provide multimodal in-transit supply chain visibility allowing all customers to understand what’s happening throughout their extended supply chain. With actionable insights, this will allow for the development of cost-saving strategies, optimization of supply chains, assessment of performance, and identification of bottlenecks.
Part of the US $1.2 Trillion infrastructure package is aimed at resolving some of their domestic issues within the global supply chain.Currently 000’s of tractor units are moving around on highways only 25% full. Right beside it is another tractor unit with a similar sized load going to exactly the same location. The US government’s aim is to collaborate and combine supply chains which would help take 000’s of trucks off the road and in the process radically reduce carbon emissions. This collaboration is already beginning to happen with the likes of Amazon who have a huge presence within the US logistics market. They are also acquiring small airfreight businesses with their own fleet of aircraft and plant to transport more goods by plane.
Amazon intend to sell spare space capacity to other major retailers, such as, Walmart and Home Depot, for example, which will more than cover their operational costs and is regarded as a smart move.
This will be a huge logistics exercise requiring sensors galore to help move goods in large volume, quickly and efficiently. It will require state of the art technology with the type of features possessed by Tetis, Tetis R and Tetis R Hybrid who provide the perfect solution for tracking, monitoring and cargo management. They monitor every aspect from the moment the container is sealed until it safely arrives at its destination.
In addition to recording temperature,humidity and light they have combined connectivity- cellular and iridium - which allows tracking and monitoring anywhere and anytime even when outside cellular connectivity range. Kylos has similar attributes which are perfect for smaller packages and parcels and which offer a full management solution when used in conjunction with their mobile and online applications and can be combined with other products eg. Lokies for multi layer security.
They're going to develop a new market which is going to be huge and we only have to capture a small fraction of the opportunities these changes will bring which would significantly improve Revenues and Profits especially from a SaaS perspective which may be the type of feature that many smaller retailers prefer.
Currently there are no other container tracking and monitoring businesses that provide a more "state of the art" business solution than t42 and our technology has some unique features they don't possess. Covid has presented the company with the catalyst required to transform its business. Let's hope that the BOD are up to the task of converting the many business opportunities these unique circumstances are about to present to us.
Correct me if i'm wrong, but the company have never said/confirmed they are involved in Container 42 whatsoever have they?
