The fleet telematics industry is undergoing significant transformation in terms of ‘platformization’, digitalization, and data-driven business models. This transformation in the industry is set to open revenue opportunities for vendors as they diversify into new service-related revenue streams. Major telematics vendors have understood the need for progression and are headed in the right direction, while other vendors have struggled to innovate and often try to emulate strategies of market leaders. Most vendors in the industry are content with their mainstream offerings and ignore potential revenue-generating opportunities within their market radar.
Why Connected Truck Market?
• By 2020, globally about 30 million trucks will be connected.
• Nearly 40% of fleet managers feel connected trucks are a “must have”.
• With smart roads and smart cities, smart trucks will be a necessity.
• High value proposition for all ecosystem partners.
• Future trucks allow the user to easily pay for fuel, toll, parking, infotainment, and many more in real time.
Resreach Highlights
This study focuses on the importance of telematics data and various forms of monetization; significance of an open platform and how it provides a competitive edge in the market, and additional revenue- generating opportunities that are evolving as a part of technology integrations between ecosystem partners.
Vehicular data collected through a telematics platform can help government agencies predict traffic patterns, enhance sustainability, curb emissions, and optimize urban infrastructure projects. Specific datasets comprising texts, images, audio, video from a telematics platform will become an integral part of the smart city Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) data platform. Data can be converted into meaningful and actionable information by means of analytics and reporting that will add value be monetized in the digital marketplace.
The study analyzes key trends such as Smart City, Blockchain, Open Platform, Smart Fleet Card, Data Lake and its impact and value proposition to the global telematics industry.
Case studies of FleetComplete’s cloud-based digital platform, Geotab’s open telematics marketplace, Wirecard’s digital fleet card, Iteris’ smart city platform, and BigchainDB’s blockchain platform are included in this study.
