New Fleet Management Solution from MetTel

The new offering taps into the needs of businesses undergoing digital transformation by harnessing telematics, mobile devices, mobile network connectivity and mobile applications all rolled into an integrated package that accelerates workflow through mobile workforce management and field service automation.

“As transportation functions become digitized, MetTel Fleet will ensure your fleet assets and mobile workers aren’t just isolated dots on a map,” said Ryan Crandell, director of MetTel Fleet Management. “We have the power to connect the dots and activate your mobile workforce as one cohesive, productive and efficient unit that drives the business forward.”

Through MetTel’s network of 650 carriers in over 170 countries – and its communications management platform, which enables teams to track costs, inventory, maintenance, advanced offerings and more – the telematics process is being digitally transformed to take advantage of an IoT connected world.

MetTel has formed an ecosystem of strategic partners in the telematics space, providing multiple options to customers ensuring all telematics components are seamlessly integrated and workflow apps or devices such as the new iPhone can be easily added to the solution. Given this approach, their management solutions can be up and running for organizations in days versus months. There is no significant capital expense or added training, and it provides the ability to easily scale with a company’s fleet and add new features as needed.

“This latest offering leverages best-in-class solutions and ubiquitous global connectivity to turn mobile assets into viable business process enhancements,” Vice President of Mobility & IoT for MetTel.
