Rand McNally and DriverTech will team up offer a complete fleet management solution to the long-haul trucking market.


The mobile management solution, called Rand McNally TruckPC, powered by DriverTech, uses Rand McNally's IntelliRoute TND truck navigation on DriverTech's secure, on-board computing platform.

As part of the agreement, Rand McNally has taken an ownership stake in DriverTech.

DriverTech currently has its technology embedded in more than 20,000 trucks and other commercial vehicles. Going forward, Rand McNally and DriverTech will jointly develop products and services for the transportation and logistics markets, with Rand McNally providing exclusive sales and marketing support in this market.

"In Rand McNally we have chosen an industry leader that provides strong brand recognition and unsurpassed accuracy in the trucking vertical," said Mark Haslam, founder and CEO of DriverTech. "DriverTech will continue to work with clients in the military and emergency sector while collaborating with Rand McNally on engineering and product development in the trucking sector."

In addition to Rand McNally truck navigation, the TruckPC system provides electronic logs; mobile communications and automatic vehicle location; the ability to support peripheral devices such as scanners, back-up cameras and tire pressure monitoring systems; integration with leading third-party dispatch; in-cab video training; and a new workflow application.

Along with the TruckPC system, Rand McNally will also offer a high-grade scanner with advanced technology designed to optimize the size of the file to enable smaller file transmission over the air.

Rand McNally TruckPC is part of the TrueTrack suite of fleet management products.
