Remote yard monitoring in Steinbach
In Steinbach, where freight moves by road instead of rail, Sigma puts live agents and AI cameras on truck yards, trailer lots and manufacturing sites, watching around the clock and calling police the moment someone shouldn't be there.
Local and live
Southeastern Manitoba's hub on Highway 12
Steinbach runs on trucks, not trains: no railway reaches the city, so PTH 12 and PTH 52, which cross in the downtown core, and the four-lane stretch linking PTH 12 to the Trans-Canada Highway 22 kilometres north carry nearly all of its freight. More than 70 trucking companies based in the city carry US DOT numbers, and an Industrial Road extension gave heavy trucks on Highway 12 and Highway 52 a route around downtown while opening more lots in the local industrial park. A regional truck dealership on Northgate Drive, just off Highway 12, later added a 15-acre service facility with 80,000 square feet of space. Manufacturers such as Barkman and Loewen Windows add further truck traffic moving in and out of the city's industrial area.
Thefts move fast in Steinbach. On September 11, 2026, RCMP said a black Ford F150 and the trailer it was hauling were taken from Reimer Avenue in a window of just twelve minutes, between 8:10 and 8:22 in the morning. Earlier that year, RCMP also investigated an enclosed trailer stolen from a Steinbach parking lot. A yard or lot without someone watching live can lose a truck and trailer before anyone even notices they're gone.
At a Steinbach site, every camera has someone watching it live, day and night, 365 days a year, which matters when a truck and trailer can disappear in the time it takes to notice they're missing. An agent reviewing the live video who spots AI's flag on a person or vehicle gives a live, instant talk-down through the site's speakers right then, not after the fact, and calls police with the recording already pulled. That same live coverage reaches the gate and the lot too, through Gate Operations and Yard Operations.

FAQ
Steinbach monitoring questions
Can you watch a trucking yard along Highway 12 in Steinbach?
Yes, and quickly enough to matter: a truck and trailer can be gone in minutes, so Sigma's agents are already on the live camera feed, not reviewing footage after the fact. AI flags a person or vehicle on your lot, the agent confirms it, gives a live, instant talk-down through the site's speakers and has police on the way with video in hand. That coverage runs 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
Can agents run the gate for drivers at our Steinbach site?
That's what Gate Operations is for. An agent watching the camera speaks to the driver through the gate speakers as soon as they arrive, checks them against your pickup list or schedule, and opens the gate from a distance rather than leaving it on a timer or a code. Every arrival and departure gets logged with the time and an image attached.
Does Steinbach need anything different for Sigma to set up?
Setup doesn't change because Steinbach has no rail service; monitoring works over whatever internet connection the site already has. Sigma's technicians make the trip to install cameras and speakers, and a lot of what's already on-site can be connected if it's compatible. After that, the site keeps responsibility for its own power, internet and gate.
