J.B. Hunt Transport Services Inc., the Lowell, Ark.-based transportation logistics company, has been named the recipient of the 2004 Terion Pioneer Award.
"We are proud to honor one of the leading innovators in the transportation industry," said Ken Cranston, president of Terion. "J.B. Hunt was one of the first companies to deploy trailer tracking technology throughout its fleet. The success of this initiative has allowed them to deliver better customer service while achieving significant operational improvements."
Terion, a two-way wireless data communication and information solution provider, created the Pioneer Award as a way to recognize transportation companies who are proven leaders in technology innovation.
J.B. Hunt and Terion partnered three years ago to begin implementation of Terion's FleetView and Cargo Sensor modules on Hunt's trailer fleet. To date, this technology has been installed on virtually all of the company's 20,000 dry van trailers. This is the first year Terion has presented the award.
