Foundation for digitalisation Kögel Telematics Connectivity

The "connected trailers" fitted with the Kögel Trailer telematics module send data directly to the new high-performance database. This is based on a shared solution with the well-established, vendor-independent integration software NIC-place, made by Kempten-based company kasasi. It allows Kögel Telematics customers to import trailers' EBS, geolocation, refrigeration, tyre and trailer data into existing processes and into a wide range of software systems in real time.

Kögel Telematics Connectivity offers a high degree of reliable data provision and delivers telematics data as needed, precisely tailored to the customer's requirements and processes. The database collects all of the telematics system's information in a single interface, prepares the data according to the request and forwards it to third-party systems. Going forward, Kögel Telematics Connectivity will naturally provide data to the Kögel Telematics web portal and for other fleet management systems as well.

"This means that in future, Kögel customers will have a telematics system which is not only perfectly designed for Kögel trailers, but which is also useful for providing connectivity throughout the whole logistics process and for optimising corporate processes," says Kögel managing director Josef Warmeling. "With Kögel Telematics Connectivity, we offer our customers attractive and innovative options for 'connected trailer' digitalisation which go far further than the standard telematics applications, creating real added value."
