Teleport, the logistics venture of Capital A Berhad, is the first Southeast Asian logistics provider to implement Wiremind's SKYPALLET product and is also lined up as one of the first customers of the upcoming SKYPALLET Version 2.

Teleport and Wiremind signed the SKYPALLET implementation contract on June 1, following a successful Proof of Concept trial.

The Malaysia-headquartered integrated logistics provider said the stepwise roll-out of the original SKYPALLET software version is now underway, with a subsequent SKYPALLET Version 2 deployment phase planned as soon as the product is launched later this year.

"Initial cooperation talks began at the end of last year when Teleport was seeking to find the perfect digital fit to advance its capacity steering and load planning processes," the announcement said.

It added that having established Teleport's requirements, Wiremind arranged an accompanying trial period, enabling the carrier to test the full range of SKYPALLET's functionalities.

In particular, SKYPALLET's advanced algorithmic logic and the software’s extensive integration options convinced Teleport to begin implementation.

"Teleport is no stranger to advanced digital solutions, knows exactly what it wants, and provided us with excellent feedback during its extended SKYPALLET trial, earlier this year," said Guillermo Medina Moralejo, VP Cargo Business Development of Wiremind.

"This has willingly been incorporated in our SKYPALLET Version 2 roadmap, and Teleport will be among the first of our customers to benefit from the upgrade. And I am proud and thankful to say, Teleport is our first customer in Southeast Asia," he added, noting that Teleport on board, Wiremind has achieved a solid milestone on its global expansion journey.

Milan Dhingra, chief product officer at Teleport, said as a tech-enabled logistics provider, Teleport is continuously exploring ways to optimise while further simplifying our operations – from improving pallet configurations to reducing manual planning efforts and minimizing errors. 

"With the latest addition of this upgraded dynamic load planning tool to our technology stack, we are confident that it will allow us to achieve greater automation and accuracy in our planning, which will result in better productivity and space utilization. All of which will positively impact our customers' experience with Teleport," Dhingra said.

Teleport and Wiremind are also exploring other initiatives and look forward to growing the relationship.
