PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. — Carrier is teaming up with Atrium Health to provide valuable real-time tracking and monitoring insights into COVID-19 vaccine conditions as part of mass vaccination events taking place across North Carolina, including at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte. Through its Sensitech business, Carrier is supporting several sites administering hundreds of vaccine doses per day. Carrier Global Corporation (NYSE: CARR) is the leading global provider of innovative healthy, safe and sustainable building and cold chain solutions.
Carrier is supplying the healthcare system with Sensitech’s next-generation IoT supply chain monitoring devices for real-time tracking of vaccine shipments throughout the state, as well as a stationary temperature monitoring system to track vaccines stored at Bank of America Stadium. The devices deliver real-time data that can be analyzed with Carrier’s Lynx™ digital solution to give added visibility into vaccine conditions, such as temperature and location, as doses move from a distribution center through administration.
