Spireon, the leading innovator of Machine-to-Machine (M2M) and Business Intelligence Solutions that connect companies to their mobile assets and workforces, has added another dimension to its already existing GSM technology powering their FleetLocate Trailer and Asset Management Solution by introducing their next-generation CDMA technology that gives trailer tracking customers additional reliability and coverage across the country.

“With the integration of the latest CDMA cellular network technology, the FleetLocate Trailer and Asset Management Solution will provide our transportation customers a choice of cellular providers for the coverage and service that best fits their operational needs. Our goal is to provide customers with more options that work for them whether they are looking for CDMA or GSM technology,” says Roni Taylor, Vice President of FleetLocate Product Management. “New CDMA capabilities allow our customers to stay connected to the critical trailer Rich Data in real-time with network availability, even when trailers are in remote locations.”

The new CDMA capabilities will also provide FleetLocate customers with a choice of network carriers, adding to the flexibility of the solution. CDMA will be available on both the FL11 and FL700 products, both designed to provide trailer fleet managers and owners with an unprecedented level of Rich Data, analytics and tools that allow them to optimize trailer performance.

Along with the new CDMA technology, key differentiators of FleetLocate’s Rich Data Trailer Tracking solution include:

• Instant access to real-time intelligence

• GPS positioning reported every 10 seconds

• Ability to track actual turn-by-turn miles with GPS data captured every second

• Flexible customized reports that can be scheduled or generated on the fly

• PAR reporting tool that identifies the actual number of trailers needed at each location

• Exception-based alerts triggered by specific events such as trailers leaving or entering the geofence

• Ability to see which trailers are moving or idle

• Ability to track trailer speed and heading

• Ability to track unauthorized trailer use

Combined, these features enable FleetLocate customers to automate trailer pool management, perform more accurate preventative maintenance, increase turns, right-size and even reduce fleets, redirect underused trailers to locations with higher demand, improve customer satisfaction, encourage customers to unload their trailers first, and do more with less.

“FleetLocate products with next-generation CMDA technology allow fleet owners and managers to increase their trailer IQ and their bottom-line performance,” adds Taylor. “This is just one more example of how Spireon continues to embrace emerging technologies that deliver increased competitive advantages for our customers.”
