As part of its strategy to offer platform-based solutions tailored to key industries, Verizon has launched a new practice focused on developing telematics solutions. Led by industry veteran Martin Thall, it leverage the company's wireless, cloud and mobility platforms to develop and deploy integrated telematics solutions for key industries including automotive and transportation. While
1984 Verizon currently offers a wide range of machine-to-machine solutions, the new practice will leverage the full breadth of the company's technology platforms to address the rapidly growing demand for telematics applications.
"Telematics services have been growing rapidly for the past decade," said Thall. "The always-connected consumer lifestyle, advancements in vehicle technology and increasing commercial fleet management requirements have set the stage for even steeper growth. Verizon has been a significant technology and network provider in OEM telematics for 15 years. Our 4G LTE and cloud analytics capabilities provide the core components upon which superior telematics solutions are and will be built."
A 25-year technology industry veteran, Thall previously was chief executive officer and founder of Vehicle ICT Corp and previously held various senior positions at 2214 Microsoft Corp. and 4169 Hewlett-Packard predecessor company Digital Equipment Corp.
