Omnitracs offers an application package for its telematics devices that tracks hours of service, a key component of the ELD mandate. Following its testing process, Omnitracs Intelligent Vehicle Gateway is registered with the FMCSA on their self-certification list which means that Omnitracs solutions will be compliant with the ELD Mandate prior to the deadline.

To prepare for the ELD Mandate, Omnitracs says it enhanced its system architecture and security measures to handle the anticipated increase in data traffic. To improve the user experience, Omnitracs also updated its entire suite of applications to improve safety, productivity, and ease-of-use.

“Although many of our customers have been using AOBRDs for years, the mandate means that fleets must take a closer look at their practices to ensure compliance,” said David Vice, Omnitracs CSO. “Early on, we committed the resources necessary to develop and test a road-ready solution. We take our position as a leader and innovator in the fleet management industry very seriously and are committed to maintaining a standard of excellence with our product offerings and customer service initiatives.”
