"Since our financing, TrackX has accelerated its growth by expanding its resources both internally and through our partner network," said Tim Harvie, President and CEO of TrackX. "This supports the accelerated deployment of an existing backlog while ensuring the band-width necessary to address the mounting number of new opportunities."

"As the investment and attention surrounding the Internet of Things (IoT) continues to grow, TrackX is well positioned to become the dominate player in managing the flow of assets within the Industrial Internet of Things. This is being validated by our current multi-million-dollar pipeline, and specifically, the growth of opportunities within large multi-site, enterprise accounts. What's exciting is that once we are in these accounts our customers see new opportunities in other divisions with other assets and applications."

TrackX's core solutions include asset tracking and inventory management for high value assets, returnable/reusable assets, yard management, manufacturing process, inventory management and supply chain management for in industries such as government, agriculture, horticulture, food processing, manufacturing, beverage and brewery, transportation, retail and healthcare, to name a few. "The acceptance of cloud based computing, lower cost hardware, embedded sensor technologies, additional locationing capabilities and the focus on device to device communications resulting from the IoT, has lead customers from around the globe to TrackX," says Harvie.

"Our revenue will not only grow from the currently scheduled deployment of solutions to our customer base, but also as these customers continue to extract more value from the TrackX platform and manage additional assets across their enterprises. While they see a rapid return on the initial investment, they further leverage the significant amount of data and information we provide to enable additional workflows and efficiencies within their operations."

Software Development

TrackX continues to build out its software design and engineering team to address the needs of a diverse range of customers with customizable solutions. Asset tracking has become a pillar of the Internet of Things which is reshaping how humans interact and manage devices. More than 30 billion devices are expected to be connected via the internet by 2020 (BI Intelligence, The Internet of Everything, 2015). Industries seeking automation are embracing the IoT to enhance their offerings, increase profits, gain knowledge into workflows, and secure their assets, with spending on the Industrial Internet of Things expected to reach $500 billion by 2020 (Accenture, Driving Unconventional Growth through the Industrial Internet of Things, 2015).

"Updates to our Jaspersoft dashboard interface will enhance our analytics and presentation capabilities while new releases of industry-specific software continue to help drive value for our customers," said Harvie.
