“We strive to work with companies who share our commitment to providing an excellent customer experience, and IoT America offers
unique IoT applications and solutions that can enhance any agricultural operation while providing ongoing support every step of the
way,” said Scott Scheuber, director of emerging product and services management at U.S. Cellular. “IoT doesn’t have to be
difficult, and with our track record of high-quality network service, we can ensure that farms of all sizes and functions have
access to the technology they need to be successful.”
U.S. Cellular and IoT America will be providing smart farming solutions for farmers and ranchers to deliver higher yields and
efficiencies to enhance day-to-day operations. Initially, IoT America will begin with asset tracking and tank monitoring solutions
for U.S. Cellular customers. Asset Tracking includes outdoor applications as well as Lone Worker identification capabilities. The
Tank Monitoring solutions highlight diesel tank, propane tank and water tank monitoring. Additionally, Tank Monitoring allows for
reduced truck rolls from delivery companies, increased time utilization for both family farm operations and large co-ops, and
better facility performance and uptime for livestock and machinery.
IoT America manages every aspect of implementation and delivery of IoT technologies, including installation, sensor management,
ongoing monitoring as well as data analytics. Whether a farm needs tracking devices on herds or tanks, facility monitoring or
anything in between, U.S. Cellular agricultural customers now have a cost-effective way to reduce the complexity of evolving their
farm into a tech-forward business.
“The success of our customers living and working in rural communities drives everything we do at IoT America, including our
strategic engagement with U.S. Cellular,” said Michelle Reese, senior vice president of strategic alliances at IoT America. “By
combining our vast IoT capabilities and industry expertise with U.S. Cellular’s market leadership in creating solutions that
delight customers on their network, we are in a perfect position to help growers and ranchers make smarter decisions and improve
the way they work.”
