HCSS announced a strategic integration with Geotab Inc., a global leader in connected transportation, video and asset tracking solutions.
This integration enables customers to seamlessly import on-road vehicle data from Geotab's telematics platform directly into HCSS Fleet, reducing manual data entry and improving the accuracy of critical fleet information.
By ingesting Geotab's rich telematics data, HCSS Fleet can now automatically update and align equipment hours and mileage, eliminating the need for manual meter entries and providing more precise inputs for job costing and preventive maintenance scheduling, according to the company.
Contractors can view Geotab-equipped trucks alongside OEM-connected assets and HCSS-tracked equipment on a single, unified map, giving operations teams a more complete picture of their mixed fleet.
Near real-time engine data from Geotab can also be used to trigger maintenance alerts in HCSS Fleet Maintenance, helping reduce the risk of missed services and catastrophic equipment failures.
"The integration with Geotab brings critical vehicle data into HCSS Fleet, giving teams accurate hours, miles and maintenance triggers without manual work. It's about turning connected equipment into better decisions," said Phil Robinson, group product manager of HCSS Fleet.
"We want to give our customers clear visibility and simplicity," said Andy Greig, associate vice president, Solution Partnerships. "Bringing on-road vehicle data from Geotab into HCSS Fleet means less manual work and a much clearer picture of what's happening across a contractor's entire fleet. When teams can trust their data and see everything in one place, they can focus on running safer, more efficient operations."
The HCSS and Geotab integration is available now for all HCSS Fleet customers. Integration setup can be completed within the OEM Providers tab of HCSS Fleet Telematics, allowing contractors to quickly connect their Geotab accounts and begin streaming vehicle data into their existing HCSS workflows.
