Telematics provider Masternaut has completed the acquisition of data service provider E.Novation BTC, combining its telematics technology with wireless tachograph capabilities.
E.Novation's digital tachograph systems enable vehicle data to be transmitted wirelessly, as well as archived and analysed, while aso monitoring European toll charges and vehicle costs.
With this acquisition Masternaut says it can now deliver its customers multiple services via a single platform.
Masternaut chairman and CEO Martin Hiscox explains that fleet management and driving-time compliance will be unified into a single hardware unit, with instant, automatic and remote access to data.
The next generation systems will enable Masternaut's customers to handle compliance with drivers' hours and working time directive efficiently, while greatly reducing operational costs, he says.
"Fleet managers will no longer have to handle multiple platforms for telematics and tachograph functionality," states Hiscox.
"With E.Novation BTC's technology now on board, we will reduce the level of time required. Our next generation systems will deliver telematics and tachograph capability via one central, unified platform."
