FedEx ShipmentWatch, a service of FedEx Custom Critical, leverages SenseAware for a range of sensitive shipments, including one-time and non-FedEx shipments.
The expansion of both the SenseAware and FedEx ShipmentWatch services offers increased visibility for a range of industries shipping high-value, sensitive packages throughout the world, including healthcare, aerospace, oil and gas, manufacturing and high-end merchandise such as fashion, art, and antiques.
Launched in the U.S. in 2009, SenseAware combines an online application with a multi-sensor device to provide customers with near real-time visibility, insight, and collaboration across their supply chains.
In addition to location monitoring, the service can also monitor temperature, light exposure, relative humidity, shock and barometric pressure.
