"Together we're integrating hours of service data from their electronic logging device (ELD) into Donlen’s DriverPoint Telematics technology. This provides enhanced visibility and real-time access to HOS logs to ensure consistent compliance with FMCSA regulations," said Brad Kacsh, director of licensing services at Donlen. "Fleets that are looking to adopt ELDs should contact us as early as possible. We can help them get started on the ELD transition and ensure that all of their vehicles are fully compliant."
Donlen will fully integrate data collected from J. J. Keller ELDs into DriverPoint Telematics to provide improved transparency and accuracy for HOS logs, according to the companies. The solution is compatible with Android, iPhone, and iPad devices.
