NORTH LIBERTY, IA – Collective Data Inc., a provider of fleet operations management software, has released collectiveFleet-Te, a product that combines their fleet management software with the mobility of the multifunctional Motion Tablet PC that includes a digital camera, barcode scanner, and optional mobile broadband.

"Clients were looking for more mobility options," said Rob Kinney, Vice President of Sales and New Product Development for Collective Data. "Data is everywhere and they need to capture it.  Clients and potential customers are excited to have such an easy yet reliable way to collect data out in the field."

Jason Wonase, President and CEO of Collective Data, commented on the company's new release. "We are always researching and developing new ways to make the jobs easier for people managing a fleet," he said. "Introducing the Motion Tablet PC will continue that trend."

This all-inclusive package can prove to be particularly beneficial for fleet inventory management. "Parts managers can roam the parts room with ease, or receive parts right on the spot," said Sean Taylor, Director of Sales for Collective Data. "Lugging around a laptop with a scanner, camera, and dangling cords on the keyboard or cart are now a thing of the past." 

The collectiveFleet-Te package can add productivity to any currently implemented Collective Data system, or it can act as the all-in-one option for smaller fleets. "Now you do not need to purchase a server, hire an IT guy, or purchase a new computer," said Taylor. "It's a simple, turn-key solution that gives users a multifunctional device, software, and the tools they need to get the information they need to make decisions that can positively affect their bottom line."

"Motion strives to provide solutions to our clients, and the best way is to partner with software providers, like Collective Data, who bring their deep industry knowledge in to software-optimized applications that further enhance mobile initiatives," said Mike Stinson, VP Marketing, Motion Computing. "We are excited to help Collective Data offer real-time relevant data to customers at the place they need it most, the point of service."
