Elite EXTRA – First to Bring Telematics into Advanced GPS Dispatch

Eau Claire, WI –  Extra Trax, LLC, with a reputation for being at the forefront of logistics technology, has recently launched their new cutting edge integrated telematics solution, EXTRA +Telematics. As the first tool to combine true dispatch management with telematics (engine diagnostics, maintenance tracking, mileage, etc) EXTRA +Telematics adds a valuable real-time data stream to the dispatching process.

As those two above facets of fleet, distribution, and logistics management have traditionally remained separate, Elite EXTRA enhanced their platform to put everything in one place for distribution and delivery dispatchers, managers, and executives. By employing both efficient and inexpensive technology, such as bluetooth, OBDII connectivity, mobile, and cloud/web-based software, EXTRA +Telematics functionality is designed to be a robust and cost-effective tool to enhance the dispatch experience.

EXTRA President and Founder Jim Ward shares the motivation behind his philosophy of constant improvement: “We are passionate about maintaining our status as an innovator in real-time GPS dispatch management, and by integrating the power of telematics, we have created something brand new in the industry.”

EXTRA +Telematics was initially released in conjunction with Galpin Motors, a large Los Angeles based group of car dealerships, and beta-tested with their telematics provider. Butch Lemen, Wholesale Parts Manager, had the following to say, “We asked EXTRA to work with our telematics vendor, and it is great to see a combined dispatch and telematics solution as a result.  Dispatching with EXTRA +Telematics will allow us to better service our customers by being more efficient while also providing a better return on investment within our wholesale delivery operations.”

Mark Roman, Executive Sales Director of long-time partner CDK Global (formerly ADP), commented on the ongoing and continuous integration improvements over the course of their partnership.  “EXTRA has been a proven leader in the field of dispatch management, and is constantly pushing the envelope in terms of partnering to bring solutions to clients; this next step is truly revolutionary.”
