To ensure optimal conditions when moving sensitive cargo from A to B, Maersk’s own refrigerated containers – equivalent to hundreds of thousands of units – are connected to Maersk’s Remote Container Management system which tracks the conditions inside the reefers. Since December 2019, customers have had visibility to these conditions via the virtual reefer assistant Captain Peter.
Now, A.P. Moller – Maersk launches the new Captain Peter Integrated package, enabling data integration with Application Programming Interface (API) for customers to get the raw data log with temperature readings into their own system of choice. It could be their own transportation management system or a 3rd party platform. In addition, the contractual customer can now grant access for their shippers and consignees to log in and view shipment details directly in Captain Peter.
For more than three years, Captain Peter has helped Maersk’s customers with managing their perishable goods by providing temperature and humidity information on in-transit refrigerated containers. Customers can now choose between three different versions of Captain Peter dependent on their needs.
By the end 2023, 90% of the Maersk reefer fleet will support hourly datalog transmission.
