Geotab Launches Integrated GM Telematics Solution

The solution allows fleet managers to access their compatible Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac vehicle data within the MyGeotab platform via a factory-fit, GM-engineered embedded OnStar module.

Geotab recently announced the availability of the Geotab Integrated Solution for General Motors.

The solution, which launched at Geotab’s largest Connect conference to date, allows fleet managers to access their compatible Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac vehicle data within the MyGeotab platform via a factory-fit, GM-engineered embedded OnStar module, providing fleet managers with access to one dedicated portal of powerful tools to meet all connectivity needs for today’s fleets.

With no installation or additional hardware required, the latest solution from Geotab and GM simplifies the task of mixed-fleet management by providing businesses with the ability to oversee their entire fleet from within one platform, according to Geotab. With the solution, fleet managers will gain access to rich, proprietary GM-specific data for connected Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac models 2015 or newer, equipped with the compatible OnStar module in the United States to help optimize fleet productivity, compliance and safety.

“GM Fleet and Geotab have many of the same customers and we want to provide them with the tools they need to run their business effectively and efficiently,” said Ed Peper, U.S. vice president of GM Fleet. “The Geotab Integrated Solution for GM will enable fleet managers to have increased visibility into vehicle productivity, location data and more.”

Vehicles able to access the Geotab Integrated Solution for GM will have the added benefit of access to the Geotab Marketplace – an exclusive online portfolio of mobile apps, hardware add-ons and software add-ins that enable Geotab customers to further customize their fleet management solution. The solution is currently only available in the United States, with plans to expand to include vehicles in Canada in the coming months.

“GM is committed to leading the transformation of the automotive industry, and we’re proud to partner with them,” said Geotab vice president of strategic partners Sherry Calkins. “With the Geotab Integrated Solution for GM, compatible fleets will be equipped with advanced telematics tools that provide a deep dive into vehicle information such as fuel usage, vehicle health and driver behavior.”
