ADVERTORIAL FEATURE
, Fleetmatics
a Verizon Company, provides
mobile workforce solutions
Canadian Design and Construction
Report special feature
Fleetmatics, a Verizon company,
is a leading global provider of mo-
bile workforce solutions designed
to help small and medium sized
businesses get more out of their
vehicles and mobile workers.

The company’s fleet manage-
ment system, Fleetmatics RE-
VEAL TM , pairs GPS vehicle tracking
technology with easy to use cloud
based software that provides ac-
cess to critical vehicle and driver
data such as vehicle location, fuel
usage, speed and mileage. It also
provides insights into a business’
mobile workforce that can help re-
duce operating and capital costs,
and potentially increase revenue.

Todd Ewing, Fleetmatics direc-
tor of product marketing, says the
company’s success and rapid
growth has been driven by its
focus on the needs of smaller serv-
ice based business. “Service busi-
nesses like plumbers and other
contractors have very different ve-
hicle monitoring needs than big
trucking companies that have full-
time fleet or operations man-
agers,” he said. “Our customers
need the same level of accuracy
and dependability, but they don’t
have hours to spend running re-
ports. Our software is designed to
provide the information they need
at a glance.”
Ewing says for the business
owner or manager who is active in
the field, Fleetmatics REVEAL
helps solve the problem of manag-
ing the activities of the team, the
individual, and the business from
the road. “Often the person using
this system has other jobs to do,
so being able to pull up a map and
quickly identify vehicle locations is
not only time saving but critical.”
That same ease of use, he says,
is also available in looking at his-
toric and more general information
without having to dig through past
reports or files. “Our native mobile
app for iOS and Android gives
users get the same benefits on the
road as sitting at their desk.”
Keeping people
moving throughout the day, rather than
stopping constantly to check-in or
record activities, means the return
on investment in working hours is
evident. Other features, like fuel
card integration, can achieve cost
savings in other ways, by confirm-
ing the validity of purchases for in-
stance. Another product, Fleetmatics’
WORK TM , provides greater busi-
ness function by moving sched-
ules, invoicing and quotes into the
cloud. “The great thing about our prod-
ucts is that they require no upfront
installation fee or hardware. Our
professional installer can get a
client’s team set up quickly and
easily and then, if they have ques-
tions, our frontline team is available
and able to help,” Ewing says.

Ewing says because the system
updates automatically and trans-
parently, customers have access to
the most recent updates and fea-
tures. Fleetmatics was founded in
2004 and grew into one of the
largest fleet tracking providers in
the world. In 2016, Fleetmatics
was acquired by Verizon Inc. For
