Frost & Sullivan highlights technology as key player in transport
industry
In June 2006, Frost & Sullivan released a report on European market for
Commercial Vehicle Telematics Systems. In the study, Frost & Sullivan
analyses the market measurements, assesses the market size and provides
forecasts. The study also analyses current and future pricing trends and
competitive forces. It traces the key drivers for suppliers to invest in
development and identifies the main restraints affecting the telematics
systems market.
Previously, limited market adoption of telematics systems has been
attributed to a lack of education towards the potential benefits of adopting
telematics systems. However, the report highlights the increasing bottom line
costs such as fuel and toll charges, coupled with customers demanding
continuous improvements on service level agreements, meaning that fleet
operators are looking to solve these issues through telematics systems. With
increased understanding of the potential for cost saving, the market seeks
further return on investment through streamlining of operations to minimise
paper work and improve visibility between the vehicles and fleet managers.
Other market trends outlined in the report suggest fleet operators are
seeking greater opportunities for reducing bottom line costs, the market
requires a flexible system suitable for a range of vehicles and budgets and
increasing market demand for risk management practices.
The transport industry is currently at a turning point where the impact of
external factors such as government legislations resulting in tighter
emissions controls, road charge schemes and safety legislations governing
driver work times are prominent in the road transportation industry are
adding to the need for the ever increasingly technology driven market.
“TomTom WORK is supporting the industry, by delivering a service which helps
their drivers to navigate the most direct route possible and maintain
constant contact throughout a days work. This means they can undertake more
jobs in a given timeframe and companies can provide their clients with the
level of transparency of reporting they need to meet regulation
requirements,” says Peter Van der Vlis, Sales Director of TomTom WORK.
Frost & Sullivan predicts a healthy outlook for OE telematcis system
providers with company annual growth rates, total revenue, telematics
aftermarket and ROI of unit sales all on the rise from 2005 to 2011.
The report outlines the following recommendations:
Telematics systems need to be scalable in design, enabling systems to be
upgraded over a period of time. This enables suppliers to shadow growth
strategies adopted by customers, offering support and solutions where required
Development of telematics systems with integrated solutions will present a
number of desired benefits, including cost savings on hardware, single
installation costs and space saving opportunities
Consolidation into a single system that is flexible enough to operate across
all vehicle brands and vehicle ages will provide cost savings through economies of scale
A simplified installation process is desired by fleet operators to minimize
vehicle downtimes, while avoiding uninstall and re-install costs when changing fleet vehicles
