MINNEAPOLIS - XATA Corporation, a fleet operations optimization company, has signed a partner services agreement with Digi International. Under this pact, Digi will supply select on-truck hardware to support XATA's next-generation onboard communications technology.

"Digi International has an outstanding reputation for reliable hardware products that enable wireless, machine-to-machine connectivity," said Tom Flies, senior vice president of product management at XATA. "This partnership leverages Digi's strength, allowing XATA to focus more specifically on fleet performance and optimization software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications for the trucking industry." 

Under the agreement, which is effective immediately, Digi International will deliver iDigi, a range of its cellular and satellite communications products and services, to meet XATA's technology and connectivity needs for the for-hire and private fleet trucking marketplaces.
