SmartDrive Names John Krumheuer VP of North American Sales

SmartDrive Systems, a leader in video safety and transportation intelligence, has appointed John Krumheuer as vice president of North American sales.

A veteran sales leader with over 20 years’ experience in transportation technology, Krumheuer assumes leadership of the regional and inside sales teams, joining Mike Baker, vice president of strategic accounts, at the helm of SmartDrive’s sales organizations.

Over the past five years, SmartDrive has quadrupled in size. With the release of the new transportation intelligence platform and SR4 hardware, SmartDrive has developed a solution that enables the future of what the company calls “intelligent transportation” while delivering fleets substantial services. The Innovative “single box” architecture of the SR4 enables the convergence of data, devices and network connectivity, lowering technology costs and reducing complexity.

The new organizational structure for North American sales leverages the talents of two experienced sales leaders, Krumheuer and Baker, and will provide SmartDrive with the flexibility to scale while focusing on the significant market opportunity in both the regional and strategic markets. It also positions the sales team to build on the momentum generated by the company’s fast-growing transportation intelligence and data analytics product line.

Krumheuer joins SmartDrive from PeopleNet®, a Trimble Company, where he was most recently the vice president of sales and account management. He previously held a number of roles at the company, starting in customer service and assuming sales and account management leadership roles with increasing responsibility and tremendous success over his tenure.
