FlexiVan and Hoopo partner to redefine smart chassis

FlexiVan, a long standing leader in North American intermodal equipment, and Hoopo, a global provider of asset tracking and fleet intelligence, have joined forces to accelerate the digital transformation of chassis operations. The integration of Hoopo’s rugged, battery powered hoopoSense Titan devices enables FlexiVan to equip a significant share of its nationwide fleet with advanced tracking and intelligent reporting, supporting both direct-to-customer and pool based operations.

This collaboration equips a large segment of FlexiVan’s Smart Chassis® fleet with Hoopo’s hoopoSense™ Titan devices, delivering real-time location data, movement updates, container mount status, and more. Hoopo is one of FlexiVan’s key technology partners in advancing its smart chassis program, supporting the company’s broader fleet digitization strategy. The hoopoSense Titan offers an exceptional battery life (up to 10 years), ruggedness, reliability, and real time intelligence designed for the demands of modern intermodal logistics.

FlexiVan’s digital fleet strategy is anchored in its AIM360 platform, which unifies telematics, maintenance, billing, and customer facing analytics into a single environment. With Hoopo’s flexible and reliable location based data feed now integrated, FlexiVan teams can deliver tailored insights, ranging from real time location updates to dwell anomaly detection, route deviation alerts, and proactive maintenance triggers.

The result: faster decisions, fewer blind spots, and stronger service performance for fleet operators, dispatchers, and customers alike.

“We’re not just capturing location. We're enabling intelligence,” said Don Alfarone, VP of Technical Services at FlexiVan. “Hoopo’s Titan solution stood out for its reliability, adaptability, and seamless integration. Whether we’re optimizing routing, identifying stalled assets, or proactively scheduling field repairs, Hoopo’s technology helps us translate real-time data into measurable value for our customers.”

FlexiVan’s operational teams, across Telematics, Maintenance, Business Intelligence, Commercial, and Loss Prevention, leverage Hoopo’s solution to deliver insights that go far beyond raw GPS data. From helping customers improve trucking efficiency by flagging suboptimal routes, to generating tailored reports that alert when assets exceed dwell-time thresholds, the system empowers FlexiVan and its customers to act in real time, not retroactively.

This partnership further strengthens FlexiVan’s position as a customer-focused leader in the intermodal sector, enhancing its service platform with an added layer of data driven operations and performance intelligence.

“FlexiVan’s leadership in data powered operations is clear,” said Al Tama, Hoopo’s SVP and GM North America. “They understand that smart assets aren’t just trackable, they’re strategic. By embedding intelligence into the chassis fleet itself, FlexiVan is raising the bar for visibility, responsiveness, and supply chain efficiency across the intermodal sector.”

Together, FlexiVan and Hoopo are setting a new benchmark for operational excellence in the intermodal industry. Smart chassis are no longer “nice to have”, they are the backbone of asset availability, faster turns and reliable service across the supply chain.
