July 03, 2021 at 3:28 amMore spurious “claims” from GSF. Did the “arrival notices” suddenly stop? Just about every carrier offers some form of track & trace, based on actual interchanges. What extra value would IoT add if the actual interchanges are not being used to control dwell? D&D is up 100% because dwell is up 100% – it’s not rocket science hardly! This is more about shipper competency and understanding their vendors products than anything else.
