GATX Rail Europe expands digital telematics services with kasasi

In a bold move towards embracing digital innovation, GATX Rail Europe announces the expansion of its telematics offering for customers, marking a significant stride into the digital age within the rail transport industry.

The introduction of the Basic Telematics Package stands out as a key feature of this expansion, seamlessly integrated into GATX’s lease contracts at no additional cost to customers. Recognising the importance of accessibility to advanced technology, GATX ensures that every customer gains essential access to telematics data for their fleet.

A pivotal aspect of this expansion is the strategic partnership forged with kasasi, underscoring GATX’s commitment to delivering cutting-edge telematics services to its customers. This collaboration not only simplifies access to telematics services for existing GATX customers but also facilitates direct interfaces with existing systems and strategic information exchange. Elisabeth Jilli, head of sales and service at GATX Rail Europe, notes, “Customers benefit from an enriched experience as all GATX railcars are equipped with telematics devices, providing them with extensive data for improved transport decision-making.” Markus Lerch, CEO at kasasi, echoes this sentiment, emphasising the strategic significance of the partnership and its focus on efficiency, transparency, and innovation in logistics solutions.

Through the GATX-kasasi partnership, customers now have direct access to their railcars via the GATX-kasasi portal, accessible through the gatx.eu website. This streamlined access not only enhances the user experience but also presents opportunities for training and upgrades through the kasasi platform, as explained by Elisabeth Jilli.

GATX Rail Europe is committed to empowering its customers with telematics data, transcending the traditional concept of waggon leasing. By integrating telematics into their operations, customers can leverage data-based support for enhanced, sustainable, and optimised logistics planning. Julian Madsen, strategy and sales development manager at GATX Rail Europe, underscores the significance of the strategic cooperation with kasasi in empowering customers with telematics data-based planning, expressing gratitude for the trusted partnership forged over the years.
