SkyBitz, a provider of remote asset tracking and information management systems and  TMW Systems, provider of transportation management systems, announced an integrated application for trailer maintenance: the SkyBitz /TMT Fleet Maintenance–SQL.

The integration utilizes visibility and management services from SkyBitz, directly delivering trailer specific information to TMW System’s TMT Fleet Maintenance-SQL application. This is the latest step in SkyBitz’s overall integration efforts with TMW Systems, adding to its existing integrations with TMWSuite, TruckMate and Innovative IES applications.

The combined system will provide customers of both companies the ability to centrally monitor and track trailers within their fleet maintenance management software to gain accurate location, mileage and trailer sensor status information. Specifically, the integration is designed to help fleet maintenance managers better maintain their equipment, avoid missed preventive maintenance (PM) schedules and prevent costly breakdowns with the following key features:

“We are excited to provide even more value to our customers by expanding our overall integration partnership with TMW Systems,” said Henry Popplewell, senior vice president and general manager, SkyBitz. “Trailer maintenance is a costly area for fleets. Integrating our asset management information with TMW’s fleet maintenance solution will greatly improve preventive maintenance efficiency and help avoid costly downtime for our customers.”
