Qualcomm Inc. introduced several enhancements to FleetAdvisor, its fleet management solution for private fleet customers. The FleetAdvisor solution supports full-function, on-board computing and vehicle tracking with integrated back-office software and real-time wireless communications. The new version includes:

  • Automatic exception management reporting, allowing dispatchers to receive automatic reports to determine if trucks have stopped, are off-schedule or are operating outside of normal performance criteria.
  • Web-based architecture that allows dispatchers to provide re-rerouting, route editing, dispatch messaging and order entry changes via a web browser.
  • Support for SQL 2000, Microsoft’s latest database version, which enables support of very large private fleets.

    • Drivers may access data via FleetAdvisor applications on the MVPc in-vehicle computer, which operates on the Windows CE operating system with on-board software designed to complement Qualcomm’s OmniTRACS or OmniExpress mobile communications systems.
