Teletrac Selected To Participate in 2011 Connected World Conference Program

Teletrac EVP Speaks on Advancements In Fleet Management Software

ARLINGTON, Texas, June 07, 2011 —Teletrac, a leading provider of advanced fleet management solutions, today announced its executive vice president, Drew Hamilton, will be a featured speaker at the upcoming Connected World Conference held at the Lincolnshire Marriott Resort, on Thursday, June 16th from 11:05 a.m. to 11:55 a.m.  Hamilton’s presentation will focus on new technology advances that help fleet operators more effectively manage fleets to reduce operations costs and improve productivity.

Over the last 12 months, new telematics technology utilizing real-time data and online safety and fleet analytics, has helped fleet managers improve safety on the road, increase driver alertness preventing accidents, meet compliance guidelines, and significantly reduce fuel consumption. 

With Teletrac’s Fleet Director, managers can locate and track the position and operation of fleet vehicles — delivering cost-saving efficiencies such as real-time GPS tracking of vehicles from the desktop, automatic route optimization, and detailed reporting for advanced decision support and cost-efficient regulatory compliance.  Fleet Director’s electronic on-board recorders (EOBRs) and hours of service capabilities integrated with GPS and other advanced features, help ensure full FMCSA and DOT compliance, eliminating costly paperwork, violations, and reducing audit risk.

In addition to discussing new telematics technologies, Hamilton’s presentation will explore the benefits of new fleet management tools including:

• More accurate views of operations for more effective decision support
• Better driver/dispatcher communications
• Driver scorecards and other safety programs
• Vehicle diagnostics and preventative maintenance

Connected World Conference attendees will also have an opportunity to view hands-on demonstrations of Fleet Director. Demonstrations will reveal how fleet managers can:

• Locate and track the position and operation of vehicles and assets in real time, 24x7, from any browser-based computer or mobile device
• Reduce road breakdowns and improve maintenance via on-board vehicle diagnostics and engine monitoring
• Instantly notify drivers regarding key information including pickups, deliveries, work orders, jobsite arrivals, departures, and more.
