Nexxiot Supports Jaeger Bernburg in Ecological Vehicle Deployment

Zurich/Bernburg, April 21st 2021 – Jaeger Bernburg is using Nexxiot technology in its rail transport division to digitize its fleet and make rail operations more efficient and sustainable. The collaboration focuses on equipping the rolling assets with IoT technology to make the monitoring of mileage and other real-time data communication possible. The project started in April 2020 and has now been completed with the entire fleet equipped with Nexxiot sensors gateways, called Globehoppers.

Christian Koch, local operations manager, explains the reasons for the collaboration: “Our company is pursuing an ambitious digitalization strategy. To achieve this, it was important for us to rely on a system that is maintenance-free, as well as one that enables precise monitoring of the mileage of our fleet. Nexxiot’s Globehoppers combine these features perfectly. The technology enables us to ensure that our vehicles are maintained in accordance with European regulations and that we always have an overview of the operating performance. This allows us to optimize our processes and automate the collection and evaluation of data.”

The Jaeger Bernburg Group is primarily active in railroad construction and manages a large number of vehicles adapted to deliver related services. The entire fleet has now been fully equipped with Globehoppers enabling increased predictability and optimized deployment. “We can deliver our vehicles to construction sites more efficiently because we know where they are at all times. This prevents unnecessary shunting and saves CO2 emissions. We also improved our support for our own employees, especially with regards to their working processes. We now provide them with critical information for improved transparency and fact-based decision-making in real time,” Koch continues.

Nexxiot was founded in 2015 and the company now operates more than 122,000 Globehoppers globally. These connected assets have traveled a combined total of more than 2.5 billion miles. “Our goal is to achieve a five percent reduction in total global cargo CO2 emissions by shifting freight traffic from road to rail and optimizing routes. Enabled by our technology, every mile saved contributes towards this goal,” says Nexxiot CEO Stefan Kalmund.
