While some temperature-sensitive freight carriers believe that traditional responses to rejected loads are adequate, a new white paper issued by Blue Tree Systems makes it clear that automated, real-time, two-way systems with documented reporting are needed to cope with the rapidly changing refrigerated transportation industry.
Temperature-controlled freight carriers work in a changing work environment, due to new Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) rules, more discerning customers, increasing complexity of reefer units, and rising cargo values. The white paper, 7 Key Challenges in Refrigerated Transportation, provides insight into addressing issues such as hot loads, equipment failure, driver error, late notification, post-incident paper trails, regulations compliance, and lack of remote control.
