Maptuit Corp., Burlington, Mass., and SiriCOMM Inc., Joplin, Mo., announced they are working together to offer Maptuit’s FleetNav Express product through SiriCOMM’s national wireless network.

Maptuit is a provider of map-based software and routing solutions. FleetNav Express provides routing directions optimized for fuel purchases over the Internet. FleetNav Express is aimed at the owner-operator and small fleet market and is based on Maptuit’s FleetNav Fuel, a fuel optimization program that is part of Maptuit’s FleetNav Suite of software for large fleets.
SiriCOMM is developing a national network that combines local area Wi-Fi hotspots – at truckstops for example – with satellite communications. The company offers services to fleets in the truckload or long haul business, but also provides Internet service to drivers at its Wi-Fi hotspots.
SiriCOMM currently operates about 260 Wi-Fi hotspots. Maptuit says the FleetNav Express service will be launched later this year.
“Through a network such as SiriCOMM’s, we will have our new online truck routing solution available to truck drivers where and when they need it – online when they are at truckstops,” said Jeff Papows, Maptuit CEO. “By accessing FleetNav Express through such a network, drivers will have access to the directions and routes they need to get to their customer safely, and on-time.”
