A.P. Moller – Maersk announced the launch of the new Captain Peter Integrated package, enabling data integration with Application Programming Interface (API) for its customers to get the raw data log with temperature readings into their own system of choice, which could be their own transportation management system or a third party platform.

In addition, the contractual customer can now grant access for their shippers and consignees to log in and view shipment details directly in Captain Peter, according to Maersk’s announcement
“The launch of Captain Peter Integrated is an important step on the journey towards more digitally enabled and integrated supply chains. Visibility and flexibility are crucial for our customers and their stakeholders, and by enabling data to flow directly from our assets into the customer’s system, we are both building a closer partnership and ultimately enabling better decisions for their supply chains,” commented Bruce Marshall, head of Reefer Solutions in A.P. Moller – Maersk.
To ensure optimal conditions when moving sensitive cargo from A to B, Maersk’s own reefers are connected to the carrier’s Remote Container Management system which tracks the conditions inside the reefers. Since December 2019, customers have had visibility to these conditions via the virtual reefer assistant Captain Peter.
For more than three years, Captain Peter has helped Maersk’s customers with managing their perishable goods by providing temperature and humidity information on in-transit refrigerated containers, said the Danish company in a statement.
“Customers can now choose between three different versions of Captain Peter dependent on their needs,” pointed out Maersk.
