Sierra Wireless has announced that Arval, a leader in full service vehicle leasing, fleet management and usage-based insurance owned by BNP Paribas, has selected it's device-to-cloud technology to build its new global telematics solution.

The Arval telematics solution leverages the Sierra Wireless AirVantage cloud, enabling Arval and its customers to monitor and manage a vehicle’s usage through a telematics on-board unit wirelessly connected to the cellular network with Sierra Wireless AirPrime embedded modules. Targeted at enterprise fleet managers, the service enables them to track mileage, fuel consumption, driver behaviour and maintenance, as well as utilise usage-based insurance models for cost savings.

Arval selected Sierra Wireless because the AirVantage cloud provides an accelerated development path, the cloud platform was already built and integrated with AirPrime embedded modules and was able to easily connect to third-party application servers and their own web applications. With the wireless integration and management already covered, Arval was able to focus on the portion of the solution that offers value and differentiates it from competitors.

AirVantage leverages standard device protocols, making it compatible with a wide variety of connected devices and future-proof in terms of compatibility with additional devices and services as Arval expands its service offering to its customers.

The AirVantage cloud is an integrated platform of services that enables organisations to quickly build and deploy IoT solutions, managing devices, subscriptions and application data through a single interface worldwide. AirVantage provides the data services to securely collect, store and organise data streams so they are easily available to web and mobile applications, enterprise systems or analytics tools. AirVantage also helps customers manage large deployments with dashboards and APIs to monitor the health of machines in the field and update them when required.
