Announced June 21, 2010, Praetorian has contracted with Lockheed Martin's Savi Technology to leverage Savi's existing wireless cargo tracking network in Pakistan. Praetorian will integrate Savi's real-time information into its own system as a value-added service to improve visibility on the location, security and condition of both defense and commercial shipments transported throughout the country.
Savi's software suite automates visibility on the location, security and condition of shipments because it can receive real-time data from wireless monitoring devices affixed to containers or assets. Savi's active Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags can be equipped with sensors to monitor security breaches, temperature or humidity, and can be linked with Satellite Communications or Global Positioning (GPS) systems to provide continuous visibility.
Praetorian also plans to leverage the Savi SmartChain Enterprise Platform and suite, including shipment, asset and consignment management applications. The commercially operated network in Pakistan and Savi Consignment Management Application (CMA) already provide in-transit information to major organizations.
Savi's software is compatible with standards-based RFID devices, including those based on DASH7 (ISO-180007), ANSI or NATO's Standardization Agreement 2090, enabling interoperability when needed. In addition to providing real-time, in-transit information, Savi's asset and supply management offerings provide automated alerts, analytics, and audit histories.
