XATA Corp has released XATANET 3.0, which enables fleets of all sizes to improve fuel economy, automate compliance reporting, increase driver productivity, and enhance customer service.
Besides offering many of the core applications from XATA's OpCenter product line, version 3.0 includes new features that increase driver productivity and customer service. One example is Smart Route, a tool for communicating and monitoring trip plans from initial dispatch to ultimate delivery, all without paper. Smart Route functionality, coupled with a multi-mode communication platform (satellite plus digital cellular) released in November 2004, allows fleets to integrate with routing and dispatch applications.
Designed to be paperless, drivers use wireless communications to pick up electronic trip plans from the XATANET web site. After delivery, trip information is displayed on the web site for plan versus actual analysis.
