Inside the truck data integration: Navistar, Samsara

There have been a slew of integration announcements between OEMs and technology service providers, which sound great on digital paper, but what do they really mean? How far does the integration go? Where do you see the data? How can you, as the fleet, make the most of it?

In the first of a series of data integration deep dives, I connected with Sean Slyman, director of connected services at Navistar, and Chris Mozzocchi, director of OEM integrations at Samsara, to walk through the recent integration announcement that the companies say will streamline data sharing between both platforms and empower customers to bring embedded telematics data from International 360 into the Samsara platform and make Samsara fault code data available in Navistar OnCommand Connection. Check out the video above for all of the insight.
