Geotab and Logmaster have announced that they have entered into a commercial agreement, which will offer the Australian trucking industry enhanced telematics and compliance capabilities.
This agreement combines Geotab’s telematics with Logmaster’s Electronic Work Diary (EWD) and fatigue compliance automation solutions. It enables Geotab to offer Logmaster subscriptions in a more seamless manner, making EWDs more accessible and empowering heavy vehicle businesses with the tools they need to stay competitive and compliant.
Many trucking businesses manually reconcile driver logbook records, telematics data, and schedules to ensure compliance – a time-intensive process that leaves room for human error, potentially compromising driver safety and fleet productivity. Under this new agreement, users of Geotab’s services in Australia can now purchase subscriptions to Logmaster’s solutions that improve driver safety, efficiency and compliance.
The combination of Geotab and Logmaster’s solutions allows for:
- Automated Fatigue Compliance – Logmaster’s EWD and fatigue compliance automation ensures drivers remain within legal working and rest times, reducing the risk of breaches and associated penalties. The platform provides minute-by-minute precision, addressing the limitations of traditional paper logbooks.
- Smart Alerts for Real-Time Action – Logmaster’s smart alert system notifies drivers and fleet managers when they are approaching a fatigue threshold. These proactive alerts are integrated with Geotab’s fleet management insights, giving operators the power to act in real-time for optimal route adjustments and scheduling changes.
- Data-Driven Planning and Analysis – Fleet managers can now use data to identify areas for improvement in route planning and scheduling. The platform offers insights that reveal patterns and inefficiencies in past operations that help fleet managers improve planning and reduce costs.
- A Comprehensive Compliance Solution – The integration provides record keepers with an all-in-one compliance solution, giving them oversight of driver activities and ensuring alignment with Australia’s fatigue management laws. Compliance checks and real-time data analysis make regulatory oversight simpler and more effective.
“We believe this relationship is only going to get better and that the result will be a world-class product for Australian customers. Looking ahead, both companies are exploring further integration possibilities to further enhance the customer experience,” says Sean Killen, Geotab’s Vice President for Australia and New Zealand.
“Our agreement with Geotab aligns perfectly with Logmaster’s mission to provide Australian truck and bus companies with unmatched tools for compliance, efficiency and safety,” says Josh Saunders, Logmaster’s Managing Director.
