New partnership delivers unprecedented shipment and asset intelligence

project44, the leader in supply chain visibility, and Nexxiot, the leader in Asset Intelligence, today announced a partnership that unlocks new areas of value for joint customers to deliver realtime network insights and IoT-centric conditional and location monitoring.

As logistics innovators, project44 and Nexxiot are substantially expanding their combined capabilities to transform the client experience for shippers and other logistics stakeholders around the globe.

This partnership gives joint customers enhanced ETAs using carrier milestones, signals, and historical performance with precise GPS tracking. Additionally, project44 and Nexxiot customers now have capabilities to drive advanced risk management strategies on order and inventory health. Finally, joint customers also unlock new use cases to better manage asset efficiency.

At project44, we strive to provide the most comprehensive supply chain visibility for all of our customers, and combining forces with Nexxiot is a huge step towards that goal. This partnership enhances the insights of our Movement platform with essential real-time asset level tracking, benefitting everyone with the new standard in actionable insights.
