BT9 is end-to-end cold chain management (CCM) solutions, provider and the developer of Xsense®, a web-based, real-time monitoring and information system for temperature-sensitive products that is currently used by more than 200 companies in more than 35 countries around the world. BT9 is highly regarded within the food and pharmaceutical industries, where temperature control is critical to the integrity of products, as well as human safety. Many of today's monitoring systems are designed to measure each separate leg in a product's journey from the manufacturer's plant to the retail store, but these solutions fail to capture the complete end-to-end picture. BT9's Xsense system offers a holistic approach to cold chain management. It proactively monitors, analyzes and disseminates relevant data and recommendations on how to manage products throughout the entire cold chain, assuring the viability of a product's desired environmental conditions from start to finish. This enables all stakeholders in the cold supply chain to have full transparency and control over their perishables, around the world, at any given time. The automated analytics generated by the BT9 Xsense® system, in tandem with BT9's expert consulting services, provide customers with the tools they need to identify chronic cold chain problems and take corrective actions to reduce waste and improve quality, overall performance and profitability. BT9 also offers a number of innovative, complementary solutions, such as sophisticated container designs and modified atmosphere packaging to further maximize efficiencies in the supply chain. BT9 is privately held and employs multi-disciplinary professionals with industry and subject matter expertise spanning life sciences, agronomy, plant physiology, embedded technology, data analysis, and logistics. BT9 maintains a global network of technical and sales support partners.
