SAN DIEGO CONVENTION CENTER, October 11, 2011—Xata
Corporation (NASDAQ: XATA), a leader in fleet optimization software, today
announced ComplianceConnect, a new product that enables fleets to seamlessly
integrate their existing driver-productivity applications with Xata Turnpike,
Xata’s low-cost, easy-to-install EOBR solution. The announcement was made at
the CTIA Enterprise and Application Convention in
San Diego.
“With ComplianceConnect, fleets are no longer bound by the
proprietary restrictions of traditional EOBR solutions,” said Christian Schenk,
vice president, product marketing, Xata. “Instead, they can now seamlessly
integrate the power of Xata Turnpike with the driver-productivity applications
they’re already running on their cell phones, smartphones and tablet
computers.”
ComplianceConnect features a two-way mobile application
programming interface (API) that enables Xata Turnpike to seamlessly run
alongside existing driver productivity applications, automatically collecting a
variety of driver and vehicle data, thus providing drivers and fleet managers
with a single interface to manage:
•
HOS
•
Driver Vehicle Inspection Reports (DVIR)
•
Speed
•
Idle time
•
Hard braking
•
Routes/GPS
•
Arrival and departure times
•
Engine-fault codes
This integration enables fleets to make the most of their
existing investment while taking advantage of the industry’s easiest and most
affordable solution for complying with Federal Motor Carrier Safety
Administration (FMCSA) regulations, including the current released technical
requirements for 395.16. Expected to go into effect in mid-2012, this remedial
directive mandates EOBRs for all carriers with poor hours of service (HOS)
compliance status.
“We are excited that companies now have seamless access to
Xata’s award-winning compliance solution and Airclic’s leading mobile supply
chain software products, in one fully integrated, on-demand solution,” said
Mike Lee, CEO, Airclic, a leading provider of mobile supply chain software with
more than 300 global customers. “By leveraging the packaged integration between
Xata Turnpike and Airclic’s Perform Products, our clients can now dramatically
increase the accuracy and efficiency of their fleets, while reducing the costs
associated with implementing other EOBR solutions.”
Apacheta’s CEO, Don Grust agrees. “Adding Xata’s
ComplianceConnect to our mobile workflow applications gives our customers a
highly-affordable DOT compliance solution for accessing driver logs and
inspections directly from their mobile device, while streamlining their mobile
business processes with our flexible mobile solutions.”
Fleets can use ComplianceConnect to seamlessly integrate Xata
Turnpike with Airclic, Apacheta and more than 35 additional MRM, dispatch,
routing, proof-of-delivery and other third-party mobile applications.
