“The collaborations we are pursuing with car manufacturers are aimed at delivering innovative mobility services, developed through the integration of data streams from vehicles equipped with OEM devices, thereby reducing the operational impacts associated with the installations of aftermarket solutions”, commented Alberto Falcione, Vice President for Sales at Targa Telematics. “The objectives are to overcome the very high degree of complexity linked to the necessary integration and homogenization of data flows and to make these available for the development of solutions provided through the digital platforms of Targa Telematics. These solutions will be tailored to meet the needs of the client, ensuring  cost-effectiveness, while guaranteeing definite and optimal outcomes with the deployment of solutions in minimal times and with the improvement of processes tied to customer operations and the services provided by Targa Telematics itself”.

Through OEM partnerships like this one, Targa Telematics is able to provide fleet managers and drivers with an increasing number of digital services that cater to their needs, simplifying the provisioning process in vehicles.
