Advanced Visibility Enhances Driver Safety and Customer Service

Toronto, Ontario – December 8, 2016 – FourKites, Inc., a comprehensive real-time tracking platform provider, today announced the availability of FourKites on the Geotab Marketplace, a scalable and reliable source for top organizations requiring GPS fleet management and vehicle tracking solutions.

Geotab customers can share real-time location information of specific loads with internal and external customers, allowing shipping and receiving locations to plan in advance for arrivals, streamline loading and unloading, reduce wait times, and get the truck back on the road efficiently. As one of the most secure and reliable tracking providers for shippers and 3PL’s, FourKites allows Geotab customers to provide high-quality customer service.

Automatic ETA and delay notifications increase driver safety by reducing the number of phone calls, text, and emails to and from drivers, and allow carriers to eliminate expensive and antiquated EDI transmissions.

“Geotab is becoming a crucial player in the ELD telematics space, and with this partnership, Geotab customers can not only share their data and location in real-time with their shipper and broker partners but also gain valuable insights to help analyze their operations,” says Mathew Elenjickal, CEO, FourKites.

“Through our partnership with FourKites, Geotab customers have real-time supply chain visibility and logistics solutions across transportation modes, allowing for efficient management of their loads” says Neil Cawse, CEO, Geotab. “With advanced tracking information, this integrated solution provides one more way to increase customer service and boost productivity of their fleet.”

The Geotab Marketplace is a robust complement to the MyGeotab platform that provides customers with an extensive ecosystem of valuable business-focused applications and add-ons. Utilized by companies with fleets large and small, the Marketplace offers key applications to more than 14,000 Geotab customers and is on track to feature over 200 third-party applications by the end of the year, further solidifying the company’s leadership in commercial telematics.
