Omnitracs announces new features for its telematics and compliance solutions

Omnitracs LLC has announced new features for two of its telematics and compliance solutions, which the company says will now benefit a wider number of industries using a variety of vehicle classes. Geared especially toward short-haul fleets, Omnitracs Roadnet Telematics provides company fleet managers a big picture view that allows them to optimize fuel consumption, reduce maintenance costs, maximize productivity and identify under-utilized assets, reducing costs associated with out-of-service vehicles by up to 25%, according to Omnitracs. Its accelerometer technology offers highly sensitive detection of maneuvers in any direction, including high speed, harsh breaking, rapid acceleration, and even backing into a loading dock. In-cab alarms alert drivers to risky driving behaviors, providing them with real-time feedback that allows them to immediately address the practices that put them at risk. Omnitracs Roadnet Telematics is offered as a bundle that includes hardware, training, and data. Once fleets are ready for even more productivity, Omnitracs provides seamless integration to Omnitracs Roadnet Telematics with Omnitracs Roadnet Anywhere, its industry leading route planning, dispatching, and delivery solution, the company said.

For companies and carriers with smaller fleets looking to combine both telematics and compliance solutions, the Omnitracs XRS platform helps level the playing field by enabling the use of smartphones and tablets to quickly and inexpensively equip their fleets with the applications and data previously available only to the largest carriers, the company said. The “plug-and-play” in-cab relay device provides diagnostic and positioning data via Bluetooth to the driver’s Android or Windows Mobile device.

“Often these solutions have been seen as being geared for only larger carriers that could deploy and support these critical intelligence-based decision-making tools,” said Kevin Haugh, Omnitracs’ chief strategy and product officer. “Omnitracs’ expanded telematics portfolio offers tailored plans and the simplicity of a single device for each vehicle. Now, telematics is accessible whether you’re a large carrier or foodservice business in need of compliance—or a small landscaping business in need of track and trace capabilities that can scale up when the company grows.”

Omnitracs Roadnet Telematics and Omnitracs XRS are customizable to any fleet size and are available today.
