Penske Truck Leasing has announced that it has established an onboard technology consulting group within its existing operations. The group was created as a value-added service to help Penske’s customers to address the proliferation of technology choices and questions fleet operators have about selecting, evaluating, implementing, and using onboard systems, Penske says. Penske takes a device-neutral approach when helping its customers evaluate onboard systems, the company adds.

“Onboard fleet technology systems and options are changing rapidly,” said Art Vallely, executive vice president and chief operating officer at Penske Truck Leasing. “Many fleet operators simply cannot keep up with the rate of change. Our goal in creating this expert team is to provide customers with an objective, fact-based view of the various onboard technologies such as telematics, ELDs, in-cab cameras, and other emerging technologies going forward.”
