Clearwater, Fla.-based AAMP Global, parent company of the mobile electronics brands Stinger, PAC, EchoMaster and PhoenixGold, has entered the telematics space with the introduction of new products.
Telematics is an industry term that involves the use of GPS systems and onboard diagnostic devices to monitor and track the status of a vehicle, be it a car, truck or even a ship.
The new category of customizable telematics products has been released by AAMP Global’s EchoMaster Fleet Solutions Division. The new line incorporates hardware, software and support, and featured products and services include asset and fleet trackers, an intelligent dash cam, live streaming video, real-time tracking, and nationwide customer service. The telematics line expands AAMP Global’s current vehicle technology and driving experience solutions for on-road, off-road and off-shore vehicles.
The new telematics products will allow companies to better monitor their fleets and make more informed and precise strategic business planning and fleet management decisions to increase margins, improve safety and better manage assets, the company said.
“AAMP Global and EchoMaster Fleet Solutions are excited to enter this new market with our comprehensive Telematics platform. Our solution will give fleet managers the data and analytics to make the best use case of assets in real-time and for future planning and growth, allowing them to deliver maximum efficiency and profitability,” said Brad Chapple, AAMP Global’s executive vice president/general manager of Commercial/Fleet. “These tools have the capability to improve everything from driver safety to a company’s bottom line.”
The Telematics hardware offerings – including two asset trackers, two fleet trackers, and an intelligent dash cam that films live streaming video both outside and inside fleet vehicles — help owners and managers track fleets in real time through tools such as driver management, vehicle health, maintenance management, traffic, and route planning.
AAMP Global claims that a key differentiator is its monitoring software, powered by M2M in Motion and accessible via tablets, mobile devices (Android and iOS) and PC.
“There’s no need to spend hours digging through endless raw data, as all the information you need to know about your fleet is presented to you,” Chapple said. “As a bonus, all this data can help lower insurance costs, as fleets are able to show a long-standing record of safe driving.”
