Trimble Transport & Logistics, the leading provider of telematics services for the transport and logistics sector, is launching a unique solution: Truck4U and FleetXPS. Truck4U mainly focuses on real-time fleet management and FleetXPS on the collection and processing of current logistical information. The offer is unique owing to the fact that both solutions can be deployed in stand-alone or in combined mode. In addition, the solutions can be used within one organization or shared with multiple cooperating parties.

Michel Van Maercke, general manager for EMEA at Trimble Transport & Logistics, said: "With Truck4U and FleetXPS we can now offer and compatible state-of-the-art solutions that transport and logistics service providers can fully tailor to their specific needs in terms of real-time information.

Truck4U for Real-time Fleet Management
Truck4U is a DIN format on-board unit permanently built into the truck, without visual output. It is connected to the digital tachograph and FMS CANbus. Truck4U performs classic fleet management tasks, in which the interaction with the driver is limited to identifying the digital driver card.

FleetXPS for Real-time Logistics Information
FleetXPS is a robust mobile on-board unit, equipped with an integrated, high-quality barcode scanner and a camera. FleetXPS focuses on interaction with the driver when dealing with logistical activities. Michel Van Maercke said: "FleetXPS provides current, detailed information on the status and condition of consignments, from loading or transfer operation to digital proof of delivery. This forms the basis for efficient supply chain management," FleetXPS is also available as an app for Android devices. This application makes it possible for fleet owners to steer subcontractors while working within their own fleet management solution.

Flexibility, modularity and compatibilityA unique aspect of Truck4U and FleetXPS is that they not only communicate with the same back-office software from Trimble Transport & Logistics but also share data with each other. This allows you to install them together or in stand-alone mode.

The modularity and easy installation of Truck4U and FleetXps create new cooperation opportunities. A fleet owner, with the use of real-time fleet management can easily cooperate with a logistics service provider that needs only logistic data. Both parties can share the cost. Trimble offers end-to-end support for its Truck4U, FleetXPS and the CarCube products. "We not only focus on continuous innovation and in-house development of our solutions, but also on a high-quality customer service,". We take into account all our customers' needs by offering a comprehensive Trimble Transport & Logistics' support service" - said Michel Van Maercke.

Trimble products are used in more than 141 countries worldwide. The company was founded in 1978 and its headquarters are located in Sunnyvale, California.
