Headquartered in Glenview, Illinois, Teletrac Navman is a provider of web-based GPS fleet tracking and automation solutions. “We are committed to provide our customers with the most accurate fleet data and tools needed to meet business goals and stay ahead of the competition,” begins Oswaldo Flores, Manager, Marketing and Product Managementat Teletrac Navman.

A.N. Webber is a great example of Teletrac Navman's work. A.N. Webber, transportation, logistics, and warehousing company wanted a new fleet management solution that would enable quick and effective communication with drivers. The company selected Teletrac Navman’s platform that not only provides GPS location and vehicle operational data, but also includes in-cab computers that allow dispatchers and drivers to exchange two-way messages. “Having access to more detail about how the trucks are being used, has allowed us to reduce idling and fuel consumptions and provide better information delivery for our customers,” says Rob Koch, Vice president of operations at A.N. Webber. It also has automated monitoring of driver hours-of-service (HOS) logs, which has reduced paperwork, data entry, and HOS violations for the company. “With a deployment of new fleet management solution, Transportation firm A.N. Webber has decreased idling by 15 to 20 percent,” says Flores.

Teletrac has met the needs of customers through the research and development of efficient solutions that provide value to their customers. The company's mission is to address cross-market problems based on the growing demand for integrated fleet data. Teletrac Navman focuses in fleet types of all sizes; from basic GPS vehicle tracking systems, to supporting the needs of enterprise customers looking for compliance solutions, third-party data integrations, and native business intelligence. Today, Teletrac is estimated to have over 500,000 units in service in over six continents globally. “Currently we are saving 28 million gallons of fuel for our customers and 280,000 tons of carbon dioxide by encouraging smarter and safer driving each year,” concludes Flores.
