Teletrac Navman, a connected mobility platform and Vontier company, has launched OEM Telematics, a new product enabling customers to connect its TN360 fleet management platform with factory-fitted telematics hardware from a wide range of vehicle manufacturers.

The development removes the need to take vehicles off the road for aftermarket hardware installation by connecting the data from the embedded vehicle telematics device with TN360. By simply adding a vehicle VIN number into TN360, fleet managers will have access to a wide range of business-critical telematics data, including:

•  Vehicle ID

•  Location (for visibility and geo-fencing purposes)

•  Usage patterns

•  Speed

• Fuel levels 

• EV battery state of charge

OEM Telematics is designed for high utilization and high turnover fleets, such as rental companies and other geographically dispersed operations, where fitting aftermarket hardware can be challenging. It harnesses cloud-to-cloud integration with the vehicle manufacturers to bring telematics data into a busy fleet operation quickly and effectively.

"The rapid growth of built-in telematics in vehicles reflects a broader shift toward connected mobility, where data-driven insights, real-time diagnostics, and seamless integration are transforming vehicles into smart, responsive platforms on wheels,” said Andrew Rossington, chief product officer at Teletrac Navman. “Robust data platforms are essential for unlocking the full value of this connectivity through secure, scalable, and actionable intelligence."

TN360 is Teletrac Navman’s flagship fleet management platform, enabling fleets to streamline operations, enhance safety and drive sustainability for their operations, all while remaining productive and profitable. It now allows fleet operators to simultaneously manage vehicle connections with both factory-fitted and aftermarket hardware, providing standard and advanced telematics data in a single pane view of fleet operations.
