Astrata said that after an extensive tender evaluation process TNT Asia chose Astrata as its partner for a regionwide asset tracking solution. The system also includes Astrata’s proven ‘anti-hijack protection’ which enables a vehicle that is stolen, hijacked or appears to be driven erratically to be stopped remotely using Astrata’s sophisticated vehicle tracking and immobilising solution.
Currently linking Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, China, and most recently Cambodia, the network is Asia’s first such road network offering TNT customers a fully-integrated, door-todoor, day-definite transportation solution throughout Asia.
Astrata’s GLP100 (Geo-Location Platform) will be fitted into TNT’s fleet of trucks and containers and will provide realtime monitoring, secure communications and expandability to other sensors, effectors and data devices. The solution for TNT will include GPS, driver ID, two-way voice, immobiliser (horns and blinkers), panic button, and cargo door sensor. The system will be monitored 24/7 at TNT’s monitoring centre in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
