Shipping containers move through ports, rail yards and distribution centers before reaching their destination, and now customers can see what’s happening to the cargo inside along the way.

Launching this week to coincide with the Intermodal Expo in Long Beach, Phillips Connect ContainerVision brings our CargoVision technology to the intermodal market. When a container’s doors open, the camera captures images every five seconds, creating a visual record of cargo moving in or out and identifying when a person is present.

ContainerVision also shows whether a container is full or empty, how much floor space is available and whether equipment or dunnage has been left inside. The solar-powered camera is protected behind a steel shield built for the conditions containers encounter in transit.

Customers can check the container from wherever they are instead of sending someone out to open the doors and look inside.

A lot can happen to a refrigerated load between pre-cool and delivery, and fleets shouldn’t have to wait until the doors open to find out if there was an issue.

Phillips Connect Cold Chain Intelligence gives operations teams visibility into temperature, individual zones and door status throughout the trip, with alerts when conditions move outside established thresholds. New re**er integrations in Connect1 add operating data directly from the refrigeration unit, helping fleets understand what’s happening inside the trailer and how the equipment maintaining those conditions is performing.

Coinciding with this week in San Antonio, we’re expanding the cold chain intelligence available to refrigerated fleets.

WEBINAR THIS THURSDAY September 10, 1 p.m. ET: What Your Tires Aren't Telling You. Sign Up Today! https://na2.hubs.ly/H07HVXW0

Join a panel of trucking, trailer and tire experts for a direct conversation on what a comprehensive tire program actually looks like once fleets stop reacting to failures and start running on real data.

The panel includes Lawrence Bader, retired Director of Global Fleet Systems at UPS, one of the largest trailer fleets in the country, Brett Suma, President and COO of Bot Auto, Rence Oliphant of Hendrickson, and Derek LaFitte of Phillips Connect.

You'll walk away with:
1. A clear picture of what real-time tire intelligence catches that a walk-around and driver judgment alone cannot.
2. A practical understanding of how tire data turns guesswork into a program, including what to track and why it matters.
3. What separates a fleet that manages tires reactively from one running a real program built around cost, safety, and efficiency.
4. Lessons from decades of tire operations at enterprise scale, and what still holds up even as the technology changes.
5. Direct perspective from Hendrickson and Phillips Connect on how equipment and technology fit into a comprehensive tire strategy.

Speakers:
- Lawrence Bader, Retired UPS Global Fleet Systems Director and Principal at Advanced Transportation Technology, LLC
- Brett Suma, President and COO of Bot Auto
- Rence Oliphant, VP of Global Sales, Hendrickson
- Derek LaFitte, Head of Business Development and Partnerships, Phillips Connect

What Your Tires Aren't Telling You

Join us September 10 at 1 p.m. Eastern Time for a discussion featuring:

Rence Oliphant: VP of Global Sales, Hendrickson. Decades of equipment-side experience, speaking to what fleets should expect from their partners when tire health is the priority.

Brett Suma: President & COO, Bot Auto. He'll share the on-the-road stories that show what a real smart trailer program catches, and what it means for fleets running with or without a driver behind the wheel.

Lawrence Bader: Retired Director of Global Fleet Systems, UPS. Decades of tire operations at enterprise scale, and what still holds up as the technology changes.

Derek LaFitte: Phillips Connect. Direct perspective on how equipment and technology come together in a comprehensive tire strategy.

Together, they'll break down what separates a fleet that's guessing from one that's knowing, on cost, safety, and efficiency.

Your CSA score is a line item and smart fleets know it.

Insurance renewals, broker relationships, even shipper contracts increasingly reference a fleet's safety scores. Tire-related violations, underinflation, worn tread, mismatched duals, are among the most common and most preventable CSA hits a trailer picks up at roadside inspection.

Every point against a fleet makes the next insurance renewal a harder conversation, and in some cases affects which loads a broker or shipper is even willing to hand a carrier.

A score built on prevention rather than good luck at the scale is a number a fleet can defend to an insurer, a customer, or an auditor.

On September 10 join us for a discussion called “What Your Tires Aren’t Telling You.” It’s time to explore how smart trailer solutions can improve your bottom line, CSA score and overall operational efficiency.

Most fleets don't know a tire is failing until it already has. A slow leak builds for miles, invisible to a walk-around, until it becomes a road call, a blown tire, or damage that spreads to everything around it. The gap between when a problem starts and when anyone notices is where cost, safety, and efficiency all take a hit.

Real-time tire intelligence closes that gap by catching what a driver's eyes can't and turns tire health from a guess into a verifiable metric. It delivers on the kind of program that lowers cost and strengthens safety at the same time, instead of treating the two as a trade-off.

Let's talk tires.

Join a panel of trucking, trailer and tire experts for a direct conversation on what a comprehensive tire program actually looks like once fleets stop reacting to failures and start running on real data.

An insurance adjuster spends three weeks trying to reconstruct what happened to a shipment, calling the shipper, the driver, and every stop along the route, and still ends up with three different versions of the same night.

CargoVision gives the adjuster one version instead of three. A timestamped visual record of every door event from pickup to delivery means there's already proof of exactly when and where anything happened to the cargo load.

Ask any fleet what's inside their trailers right now. You'll get a shrug, a phone call, or a guess.

That's strange when you think about it.

We track brake wear down to the millimeter, we know tire pressure in real time, but the actual freight, the thing all of this exists for, is still a mystery unless someone opens the doors, until now.

CargoVision does it all: load status, door events, available space, and cargo condition, all logged automatically in Connect1.

No more guessing what's behind your trailer doors.

Most trailer breakdowns don't happen without warning. They often happen because the warning wasn’t visible.

Smart trailer technology changes what fleet operators know and when they know it. Real-time trailer visibility means catching a tire pressure drop, a brake anomaly, or an air system problem before it becomes a roadside event, not after the trailer is already on the shoulder.

The fleets running the leanest maintenance programs aren't just fixing things faster. They're working from continuous operational insights across every asset in the yard, on the road, and at the dock, which changes what a PM looks like and what an unexpected breakdown actually costs.

That's what trailer intelligence delivers: not more data to manage, but a clear picture of what needs attention before it demands it.

A trailer that leaves the yard partially loaded because dispatch couldn't verify remaining volume is a missed revenue opportunity and a decision made in the dark. Those decisions compound across a fleet.

Shifted or unstable cargo is a different kind of exposure. It’s one that lands on the driver first, and on safety and risk teams not long after. Both problems share the same root cause: no visibility into what's actually happening inside the trailer until someone opens the door.

CargoVision gives fleet operators real-time cargo monitoring from the dashboard, precise volume metrics and interior images that make deployment decisions faster, safer, and more defensible before the asset ever leaves the dock.
