Intelematics understands the challenges faced by vehicle importers in establishing an Australian telematics capability and has experience in overcoming these hurdles to deploy successful port of entry telematics programs.
Invariably, the major barrier vehicle importers face to the early introduction of a telematics solution is the sourcing of telematics hardware. Intelematics can assist importers to overcome this hurdle by providing importers the option of utilising factory approved hardware or a locally sourced hardware alternative. Utilising its award winning Telematics Service Hub (TSH), Intelematics is able to integrate any telematics hardware device and provide a manufacturer grade local service delivery capability.
In the case of a local hardware supplied port of entry solution, Intelematics can assist the importer in the specification, sourcing and in-vehicle integration of a local telematics device. This includes managing the design and sourcing of patch harnesses and working collaboratively in securing the necessary head office hardware approvals.
Intelematics is also able to assist importers overcome the challenge of providing an elegant in-cabin driver interface solution. The Intelematics patented Flex-HMI is our solution to the challenge of integrating a functional yet stylish user interface in a vehicle cockpit. The design which includes buttons, status indicators, and microphone in a flexible housing can be adapted to a range of cockpit locations and configurations. The Flex-HMI is also designed to be easily screen printable to meet importer branding requirements.
In collaboration with a number of leading Australian designers and electronics manufacturers Intelematics has continued to evolve a 'model solution' for port-of-entry or accessory programs. Our flexible approach provides importers a rapid, low risk market entry option that ensures any launch strategy is a starting point, not a long term lock in to a proprietary hardware/service offering.
