TrackX Announces Contract with Industrial Logistics Company for Supply Chain Management in the Utility Industry

DENVER, June 11, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TrackX Holdings Inc. (TSX.V:TKX | TKXHF:OTC | FRANKFURT:3TH) (“TrackX” or the “Company”), a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) based enterprise asset management and supply chain execution solutions provider, today announced that it has entered into an initial three year agreement to provide its supply chain and inventory management solutions to Shifflet Bros. Enterprises (“Shifflet”), a freight hauling provider servicing the electric utility industry. Under this agreement TrackX will leverage its IoT-enabled, SaaS based platform to automate Shifflet’s management and delivery of utility poles to utility operator job sites and service centers.   The initial deployment will utilize TrackX’s Global Asset Management for Enterprises (GAME) platform to automate many previously manual processes such as shipment receipt, inventory management, put away, order picking, routing and delivery that will drive efficiency throughout the Shifflet operation. 

Shifflet Bros. is a contract trucking firm servicing electric utility companies. Within the electric utility industry, providers are dealing with increased regulations and supply chain complexity.  For this opportunity, in partnership with Omni-ID, the number one industrial RFID tag provider in the world, TrackX will deploy its GAME solution platform with RFID to capture accurate, real-time inventory and supply chain information. The initial implementation will encompass 18,000 uniquely identified and high value inventory items sourced from 4 suppliers and stored at a 70-acre facility. Order delivery, performed daily by 19 trucks, will be managed across hundreds of the electric utility operator’s job sites, service centers and lay down yards. The result will be a single system of record driving the automated, active management of critical inventory levels and supply chain activity for Shifflet and their utility customers.  

“TrackX is proud to announce this relationship with Shifflet Bros., a leader in addressing the transportation needs of the electric utility market, a heavily regulated industry where supply chain collaboration and enterprise analytics are critical,” says Tim Harvie, CEO of TrackX. “Now, more than ever, companies are facing increased pressure to improve supply chain visibility and efficiency. The TrackX IoT-enabled solution platform and extensive supply chain experience will help Shifflet automate many of their inventory management and supply chain processes, further differentiating them within the utility industry and enhancing service to their customers.”
