Telefónica and Geotab to Launch M2M Plug-and-Play Fleet Management Solution

Telefónica and Geotab, a leading provider of m2m fleet transport telematics technology, have partnered to provide a solution which includes Geotab’s plug-and-play device, offering real time fleet management and the ability to develop a number of alerts, notifications, and review driver trip and activity reports.

Initially, the partnership focuses in Europe, beginning with Spain, Germany and the U.K.

Advanced features of the approach include on-board diagnostics through engine indicators to return feedback, such as engine failures, or an in-depth engine fault code diagnosis; detect accidents and retrace cause of the accident; and allow add-ons such as a navigational device, NFC driver ID key, sensors and more.

The technology is engineered to help businesses improve their on-road productivity, on-road safety, and ecological efficiency, in addition to optimizing fleet performance to reduce fuel costs.

Through this agreement, Telefónica extends its fleet management offer to further cover the global needs for its clients of both large corporations and small and medium size companies.

Geotab devices have been deployed in over 400,000 vehicles and currently support 40% of the top ten fleets in North America.
