Volvo Trucks offers new Geotab telematics package

Volvo Trucks North America has partnered with Geotab to offer a new telematics solution and platform to provide fleet management, diagnostics, compliance and driver support.

The new Geotab Drive + Fleet for Volvo Trucks is an expandable, cloud-based platform for fleet managers and drivers, the company says. Fully integrating the Geotab fleet management solution via factory-fit telematics hardware, the latest solution from Volvo Trucks eliminates the need for additional hardware installation on Volvo trucks. Geotab Drive + Fleet for Volvo Trucks is compatible with all 2015 and newer Volvo Trucks models powered by Volvo engines.

When using Geotab Drive + Fleet for Volvo Trucks, fleet managers can access activity reports, driver performance reports, delivery schedules and more, as well as monitor vehicle locations all through a simple, user-friendly dashboard, Volvo says. Customers also have 24/7 access to the Volvo Trucks Uptime Center.

Geotab Drive + Fleet for Volvo Trucks includes Geotab Drive for Volvo Trucks, a cloud-based system that delivers operator and vehicle logs in compliance with the federal Electronic Logging Device (ELD) mandates.

The Geotab platform provides additional functionality by leveraging data analytics and machine learning to help customers improve productivity and efficiency and offers hundreds of third-party data integrations and analytics options, Volvo says.
