Overhaul’s Intelligence Service Has Just Launched in Brazil

The Intelligence as a Service, product already available in the United States and Mexico, has just arrived in Brazil. Overhaul’s system, a global leader in risk management for in-transit supply chains, provides timely and accurate cargo security intelligence to protect shipments in transit and stay ahead of road threats.

With three levels of support, Overhaul can help identify the dangers and risks faced by a supply chain, whether through threat intelligence, route investigations, or onboard IoT devices. With one of the most modern cargo monitoring infrastructures in Brazil, the company offers visibility, automation, data analytics, and unparalleled response times.

Overhaul believes that human intelligence and technology combined provide the best protection: you cannot have one without the other. Telematics alerts monitoring agents 24 hours a day about any deviations, and AI technology allows them to work faster than ever. Here, AI plays a key role in risk management, providing data analysis on travel behavior, assisting with monitoring by detecting and prioritizing the most critical tracking alerts, thereby contributing to loss prevention and protecting people. With continuous monitoring, the service ensures greater security not only for the transported cargo but also for the drivers.

“Security is just the first part of our intelligence,” explains Barry Conlon, CEO of Overhaul. “Understanding threats and how to address them creates new opportunities. When AI allows us to identify what is truly critical, it gives us more time to focus on other business needs. We are very excited to bring this technology to Brazil and strengthen our global presence.”

In addition to its practical applications, the Intelligence as a Service is also the basis for publicly available reports and statistics, such as the Brazil: Quarterly Cargo Theft Report, which analyzes cargo theft in the country on a quarterly basis. The second quarter edition of the report registered 17,230 events, a 5.5% increase compared to the same period in 2022.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

Australia prepares to dredge 96.5 million m³ in Moreton Bay to deepen, widen, and realign channels of the Port of Brisbane, in a project of up to 25 years designed to accommodate larger ships and enhance maritime safety and regional port efficiency.

Study solves great ancient mystery: remains of Philip II, father of Alexander the Great, are identified in Vergina and resolves the enigma of the Macedonian royal tombs that had lasted half a century.

Portugal installs two giant underwater sockets to draw water from the Atlantic and create a €107.9 million desalination plant in the Algarve capable of producing 43.2 million liters of potable water per day with ocean intake 2 km from the coast.

Archaeologists open a 2,300-year-old tomb near the Great Wall of Qin and find a bronze bottle with preserved ancient beer.

Swiss nanodevice generates continuous electricity from the evaporation of saltwater, using a three-layer structure, silicon nanopillars, and the combined effect of heat and sunlight to produce autonomous energy for applications such as environmental sensors, wearables, and the Internet of Things.

Disposable masks that would end up in the trash can become road base in Australia, where RMIT researchers mixed shredded PPE with recycled construction debris to create a material capable of using millions of units per kilometer of pavement.

The Panama Canal stores water in Gatún and Alhajuela lakes to maintain 38 daily crossings and prevent a drought linked to El Niño from once again stalling ships, raising freight rates, and putting pressure on global supply chains as occurred in 2023 and 2024.
