Geotab and O2 Launch New Commercial Telematics Solution in the UK

Geotab has announced that it has launched its OBD fleet management solution with O2 in the UK.

O2 is adding two new GPS fleet management and vehicle tracking solutions to their Fleet Telematics portfolio based on Geotab’s solution: the O2 Track and Go and O2 Smart Tracking – designed to help companies reduce operational costs, enable real time remote vehicle monitoring and monitor driver behavior.

The solutions are considered particularly applicable for rental and leasing companies.

They include Geotab’s plug-and-play device, offer real time fleet management and the ability to develop a number of alerts, notifications and review vehicle trip and activity reports. Advanced features also include on-board diagnostics through engine indicators to provide feedback, such as engine failures, or an in-depth engine fault code diagnosis; detect accidents and retrace potential cause of the accident; and allow add-ons such as a navigational device, NFC driver ID key, sensors and more.

“Fleet, rental and leasing companies need reliable and secure fleet management solutions that are easy to install, manage and switch out as the fleet is changing rapidly,” said CEO Neil Cawse, Geotab.

“The technology,” he continued, “will serve verticals such as car rental, leasing, courier, beverages and utility fleets to improve their on-road productivity, on-road safety, and ecological efficiency, in addition to optimizing fleet performance to reduce fuel costs.”
