A1A Software has added the functionality for the transfer of telematics data points to other software (OEM’s proprietary system or another off-the-shelf program) that fleet managers or mechanics may already be using for a mixed fleet environment. No additional programming is required for sharing data using the AEMP Telematics Standard, ISO 15143-3, as well as other customised data points which may be selected by the user.

“The benefit of sharing the telematics data feed is that it gives users control over the program they need or want to read the data in,” said Tawnia Weiss, president of A1A Software.

iCraneTrax combines sales, dispatch and fleet maintenance with telematics into one application to manage rental company daily operations. The software captures data from crane and lifting equipment, then combines various other business communications into one tool to improve coordination and communication between sales people, dispatchers, operators, managers, and mechanics.

Another new addition to the specification is the ability to e-sign documents, that utilises DocuSign to capture rental equipment delivery or return documentation on site using the iTeleTrax mobile app. It is then stored with the customer record in iCraneTrax.
