Asset Acumen Via GE

GE Equipment Services has introduced VeriWise RAIL and VeriWise INTERMODAL. These are remote asset management solutions that provide customers with on-demand visibility into the status of their fleet and the cargo it carries. GE’s VeriWise technology, already in service on more than 150,000 transportation assets in North America and Europe, can provide decision support data directly to cargo shippers and carriers. This product assists them by enhancing safety and security, improving shipment delivery cycles and increasing productivity.




VeriWise uses remote monitoring devices, an array of sensors, algorithms and satellite and cellular-based communications networks to gather and provide information about a fleet’s location and the environmental conditions inside each railcar or intermodal unit. Customers manage their fleet operations through a secure Web interface at their discretion and on their own schedule. Whether a shipment contains hazardous materials, agricultural commodities, coal, high-value electronics or automobiles, the ability to monitor location and a range of conditions offers shippers a wealth of information to plan arrivals, unloadings and restockings more efficiently—Chicago, Illinois
