Platform selection
Sort out what you need the system to do, narrow the options, and prepare for demos with the right questions.
Fleet Telematics Consulting
Practical advice from people who install this equipment for a living. We help you choose a platform, plan the hardware, and map out a rollout that doesn’t stop your operation.
Independent advice
Brand-neutral, and upfront about it
Platform sales teams know their own product. We’ve installed and worked with many of them, so we can tell you how they hold up in the field: what installs cleanly on your vehicles, where the common headaches are, and what to ask before you sign.
Our job is to help you make a good decision and set the project up to succeed. Some platform resellers pay us a referral fee when a customer we introduce signs up, and we’re working toward reselling Quartix. If we have a relationship with a platform we recommend, we tell you up front.
- Plain-language comparison of the options that fit your fleet
- Hardware needs worked out vehicle by vehicle
- A rollout plan that fits around your routes and shifts
- Questions to ask vendors before you commit
Questions we help answer
- Which platform fits our fleet and budget?
- Do we need cameras, ELDs, asset trackers, or all three?
- What hardware does each vehicle type need?
- Should we pilot first, and how?
- How do we roll out without stopping operations?
- What should our install contract include?
What consulting can cover
Use one piece or all of it.
Hardware planning
Match devices, cables, cameras, and power to each vehicle and asset type in your fleet.
Pilot design
Pick the vehicles and drivers for a trial, decide what success looks like, and how you’ll measure it.
Rollout strategy
Phase installs by site or vehicle group, plan downtime, and line up hardware delivery.
Vendor coordination
Help you keep your platform provider, installers, and internal teams on the same page.
Cost planning
Lay out the cost pieces to plan for: hardware, subscriptions, installation, and downtime.
How it works

A call to learn your fleet, your goals, and what’s not working today.

- Who makes the final decision
Consulting questions
Are you tied to any platform?
No. We aren’t owned by any of the platforms we work with. Some platform resellers pay us a referral fee when a customer we introduce signs up, and we’re working toward reselling Quartix. If we have a relationship with a platform we recommend, we tell you up front.
We already picked a platform. Is consulting still useful?
Often, yes. Hardware planning and rollout strategy matter just as much as the platform choice, and they’re where many projects run into trouble.
Can you help us switch providers?
Yes. We help you plan the timing, the hardware swap, and how to keep vehicles reporting during the change.
Do you also do the installs?
Yes. You can use us for consulting only, or have us carry the plan through installation, project management, and training.
Do you work with government fleets?
Yes. We have experience on government projects as well as with large trucking companies and local businesses.
