Motive, a vehicle software developer and Navistar are partnering on future software integrations. The partnership will connect Motive's Automated Operations Platform with Navistar’s OnCommand Connection telematics and Advanced Remote Diagnostics solutions.
As rising fuel and maintenance costs add pressure on already slim margins in today's physical economy, businesses across
The companies say telematics can help manage operations more efficiently to save on fuel and maintenance costs.
The partnership between Motive and Navistar combines thousands of vehicle data points to help fleets operate safer and more cost-effectively.
The partnership will offer two types of integrations. First, Motive users will be able to streamline their fleet operations by accessing data, including fault code descriptions, severity ratings and recommended parts and services from Navistar’s OnCommand Connection (OCC) platform. The added operations visibility will allow users, like safety, compliance and fleet managers, to diagnose and address potentially costly maintenance-related issues.
“Motive is committed to building scalable solutions that create long-lasting value for our customers,” said Jai Ranganathan, chief product Officer at Motive. “Through this partnership, our customers will be able to access even more data about their fleets, enabling our AI-powered applications to further improve the safety, productivity, and profitability of their operations.”
Second, Motive customers can expect improved fleet management by accessing data from Navistar’s factory-installed devices on International Trucks. These devices offer customers native telematics such as vehicle location, engine hours, tire pressure, brake and cabin temperatures and lights status directly from the vehicle manufacturer.
"We are excited to team up with Motive. Through this integration, International Truck customers will gain the full context of vehicle telemetry and the relevant insights related to vehicle usage. Having all this information in one place will increase their efficiency and productivity,” Navistar Vice President, General Manager of Connected Services and Analytics Scott Renier said of the partnership.
