Trimble has announced that CalAmp is supplying customized telematics tracking devices and systems management technology for Trimble’s Field Service Management (FSM) vehicle and asset monitoring solutions.  

Trimble will focus on the value-add fleet management, work management, diagnostics, driver safety and mobility software, and cloud-services that enable organizations to improve efficiency and productivity. The Trimble solutions allow fleet managers and equipment dealers to locate and monitor the health and utilization of their vehicles and equipment, and proactively manage maintenance.

The CalAmp devices are simple to install and its PEG (Programmable Event Generator) and PULS (Programming, Update and Logistics System) technology enables greater customization and easier device management. This technology improves field service response time by tracking vehicle and equipment location to efficiently deploy service technicians. In addition, the Trimble solutions incorporate equipment warnings and diagnostic information to improve first-time fix rates and increase customer satisfaction.

“Trimble chose to partner with CalAmp to strengthen our FSM portfolio,” said John Cameron, general manager of Trimble’s FSM Division. “Working together, CalAmp will deliver an industry-leading telematics device and Trimble will focus on field service management software technology. The end goal is to deliver a complete solution to transform work processes and efficiency for our customers.”

“We are excited to support Trimble with their telematics product offerings in the field service market. Our best-in-class telematics devices and device management systems are designed to provide high-value asset tracking and deliver critical vehicle data in real time to support a wide array of applications. We look forward to working closely with Trimble to develop custom solutions that meet the growing market demand in fleet and asset management,” said Justin Schmid, senior vice president and general manager of the Telematics Systems Business at CalAmp.
