The integration, which is Fleetio’s first embedded original equipment manufacturer (OEM) integration, now supports a more comprehensive data exchange with the Fleetio platform.
Fleetio, a fleet maintenance management software company, announced the expansion of its embedded integration with Ford modem-equipped vehicles and Ford Pro plug-in device technology.
The integration, which is Fleetio’s first embedded original equipment manufacturer (OEM) integration, now supports a more comprehensive data exchange with the Fleetio platform, open to all Ford Pro Telematics subscribers.
Real-Time Data Exchange for Proactive Fleet Management
Building off the original integration, which allowed fleets to sync odometer readings and fault codes automatically, this expanded version also provides:
- Access to diagnostic trouble code (DTC) alerts for proactive repairs.
- Vehicle location details for optimized routing.
- Fuel vendor location alerts for enhanced fuel monitoring.
These new features allow fleets to take action on the data needed to improve the efficiency of daily maintenance operations with faster access to vehicle data, which is vital to keeping vehicles on the road, drivers safe, and costs in check.
Fleetio now offers seamless integration for Ford Pro Telematics subscribers, allowing direct connection of their telematics account to the Fleetio platform.
Ford Pro Telematics subscribers can continue to utilize their Ford Pro Intelligence dashboard for in-depth tracking, with the added convenience of critical data automatically flowing into Fleetio for enhanced maintenance insights.
“The Fleetio and Ford Pro Telematics integration is a significant win for fleet managers,” Jake Martino, vice president of partnerships at Fleetio, said. “By centralizing critical telematics and fleet health data within Fleetio, our mutual customers are better positioned to improve uptime and extend the life of fleet assets.”
This new integration follows a previous announcement of Ford Pro’s Fleet Management Software, which offers a comprehensive fleet management solution built on software from Fleetio.
Fleet Utilization and Preventive Maintenance Compliance
By pairing Ford Pro Telematics data directly with Fleetio’s platform, users can proactively monitor vehicle utilization trends, create accurate vehicle replacement programs, and ensure preventive maintenance compliance is achieved across an entire fleet.
“We are excited to be the first OEM with embedded integration capabilities with Fleetio, allowing fleet customers to utilize their telematics data within the Fleetio platform without having to invest in an electronic plug-in device,” John McEachern, director of fleet management software and services at Ford Pro, said.
This new integration follows a previous announcement of Ford Pro’s Fleet Management Software, which offers a comprehensive fleet management solution built on software from Fleetio.
