Teletrac Navman is upgrading its TN360 fleet management platform through a new integration with Ekos fleet, fuel and EV management software.
Sustainable fuel management and reducing fuel costs are key challenges for fleets operating vehicles with internal combustion engines. By incorporating Ekos’ solution for driving efficiency, increasing productivity, and lowering costs, Teletrac is further positioning its AI-powered platform as a “single pane of glass” from which fleets can plan, manage, and optimize operations using a data-driven approach, the company said.
“In today’s current business and economic climate, there are increasing pressures to operate more efficient and sustainable fleets,” Mayank Sharma, Teletrac head of global product management and user experience, said in a news release. “Being able to confidently plan and manage what are increasingly becoming mixed-energy fleet takes a unified approach to fleet management powered by smart data.
“With the power of Ekos, we are continuing to equip fleets with the tools they need to simplify complex tasks and make sound business decisions that will impact them today and into the future.”
From controlling on-site fuel distribution and inventory, to pulling in live fuel card data, Ekos streamlines operations and leverages AI technology to identify patterns in data where efficiencies and savings are achievable. Moreover, the Ekos Fuel Index provides live aggregated data on retail and wholesale fuel prices, guiding operators on where and when to plan on-site stock purchasing and off-site refueling.
Teletrac’s TN360 platform delivers insightful dashboards, reports, and real-time alerts that simplify decision making, the company added. The latest integration expands the company’s portfolio, which includes TMS/job management, temperature monitoring, freight visibility, route scheduling and dashcam.
