Geotab says its customers can use FourKites to 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.
Automatic ETA and delay notifications reduce 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 of 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.
The Geotab Marketplace is a complement to the MyGeotab platform that provides an ecosystem of 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.
