Savi Networks provides information services called ‘SaviTrak’, which leverages RFID and other automatic identification and data collection (AIDC) technologies at ports to further improve the efficiency, effectiveness and security of global supply chains.
The agreement calls for ESC to implement systems at port terminal facilities where Savi, which is majority-owned by Lockheed Martin Corporation, has partnership agreements with terminal operators. ESC also will provide systems integration of automated data collection points with SaviTrak information services and other supply chain management systems used in port environments.
Savi Networks will significantly benefit from their experience and capability in port deployments and solution extensions, such as Optical Character Recognition (OCR), gate automation, and integration with terminal operating systems, said Lani Fritts, chief operating officer of Savi Networks.
Savi Networks’ recent port terminal partnerships include the Georgia Port Authority (GPA), including the Port of Savannah, and the Garden City Terminal, which encompasses more than 1,200 acres and moving millions of tons of containerized cargo annually.
