Teletrac Navman simplifies the complex so that its customers can transform the way they work through cloud-based solutions that leverage artificial intelligence to unlock the power of operational insight.

Earlier in the year, the company announced major updates to its alternative energy product portfolio that will enable fleets to strategically plan, implement, and track the transition from internal combustion engine (ICE) to multi-fuel capabilities. EVE (Electric Vehicle Evaluator) by Teletrac Navman is an electric vehicle (EV) transition platform that utilizes telematics data and predictive analytics to build a plan that supports a fleet’s decarbonization goals.

Mayank Sharma, Head of Global Product Management & UX at Teletrac Navman, says, “Fleets all over the globe are facing pressures to change to low carbon energy types in an efficient and cost-effective way, without disrupting business operations. It can be overwhelming. We have designed EVE to help fleet managers navigate the journey to alternative energy by simplifying what can be a very complex process.”

EVE provides intelligence for transition planning in the three key areas of Feasibility Planning, Financial Planning, and Infrastructure Design to support informed strategic capital expenditures planning and expenditure conversations. The Feasibility Planning tool helps to identify the vehicles suitable for transition to electric based on trip and cargo data and the optimum battery and charger types to use. The Financial Planning element provides a detailed cost analysis of the total cost of ownership between EV and ICE vehicles, indicating which ones would be more cost effective to transition.

EVE’s Infrastructure Design tool models the most efficient charging infrastructure to support and sustain a transition plan. It also has the capability to factor in weather conditions, different charger powers, site charge fuse limits and varying base load, which enables fleet owners to build custom infrastructures that will keep their businesses moving. The launch of EVE is complemented by Teletrac Navman’s new Sustainability Dashboard, which enables fleet managers to monitor progress against their decarbonisation targets once their energy transition has commenced.

The Sustainability Dashboard gives fleets a score out of 100 so fleet managers can see progress at a glance. It simplifies internal and external company reporting on their targets, including emissions. Not only does it provide a snapshot of savings in fuel costs, but also feeds in data from individual vehicles to help identify areas of improvement in driver performance that can impact emissions.

“Our recent TS24 telematics survey found fleets need trustworthy support when it comes to decarbonisation,” adds Sharma. “Our experts are always available to guide fleets through their transition and to also ensure they’re making the most of the solutions they’ve employed through ongoing support, tailored guidance, and data reviews.”

Teletrac Navman is headquartered in Northbrook, Illinois. The company opened its Research and Development Center at Hacienda in July 2013. Teletrac Navman manages more than 700,000 vehicles and assets around the world.
