Weekly UpdatesWith much of the Evangelist selling accomplished, onboard fleet management systems employing wireless communications are positioned for strong growth. The early adopters have weighed in, and the benefits of wireless dispatch, vehicle tracking and real-time reporting are becoming well established. Improvements in driver efficiency, asset utilization, and customer service are making compelling sales tools for industry participants as they call on mainstream fleets.
As fleets become more comfortable and reliant on vehicle electronics and wireless data networks, they are becoming more ambitious in their plans for the use of these technologies. These power users of information technology require a reliable and ubiquitous wireless network if they are to re-engineer their fleet businesses around real-time communications. Solution providers offering dual wireless communications architectures in which a default low-cost airlink is supported by a second wireless network will have a strong advantage in these markets.
The number of fleets considering the new purchase of onboard electronics is now twice as high as it was three years ago. In the next few years, fleets that cannot offer their customers the higher levels of service these wireless-based systems provide will be absorbed by other carriers or forced into localized niche markets.
