Navman Wireless Relies on the KORE Telematics Network to Power Its Fleet Management and Navigation Applications

KORE’s Flexible, Integrated GSM/CDMA Platform for Machine-to-Machine Communications Puts Navman’s Customers in the Driver’s Seat

Reston, VA, TORONTO and Glenview, Ill.—June 18, 2008—KORE Telematics, the world’s largest digital wireless services provider specializing in machine-to-machine (M2M) communications, today announced that Navman Wireless North America uses the KORE network for vehicle tracking and fleet management throughout the continent. Navman Wireless North America is a leading global provider of fleet tracking and management solutions based on GPS technology for small- to medium-sized vehicle fleets.

With KORE, Navman can offer its customers a choice of GSM or preferred CDMA technologies—whichever best suits each customer’s specific requirements—over a single, integrated service platform while maintaining direct connectivity to Tier 1 wireless carriers.

In addition, Navman Wireless is committed to providing a highly scalable solution for commercial fleets of any size, ranging from just a few vehicles traveling short distances to hundreds of vehicles traversing the nation on a daily basis. To do this, Navman requires a network that delivers the same network airtime cost economies to smaller fleets that are available to larger fleets. KORE’s network has no minimum use levels and, unlike operator plans, requires no payment for unused services. Simply, KORE makes Navman’s per-vehicle, per day service model click.

“With the rising price of fuel, vehicle tracking and management have become extremely critical to cost management for a wide range of organizations,” said Alex Brisbourne, president and COO, KORE Telematics. “Through this partnership, Navman’s customers get the double benefit of higher levels of control over their fleet operations and a reduction in the overhead required for fleet tracking.”

KORE is the only M2M network provider that offers both CDMA and GSM wireless services, along with real-time control through an integrated management console. With these services, KORE provides its ASP partners the most widespread, cost-effective, high and low bandwidth wireless services in the M2M industry.

“The KORE network is the perfect complement to our powerful AVL (automated vehicle location) solution,” said Renaat Ver Eecke, vice president, Navman Wireless North America. “KORE’s extensive digital infrastructure, including integrated GSM and CDMA network and data services, allows us to ensure that our customers are able to maintain the highest quality communications with their assets, anytime, anywhere. KORE’s responsiveness to market changes, willingness to develop programs that fit the ever changing AVL landscape and overall service levels, will play a valuable role as we continue to expand our range of industry leading fleet management offerings.”
