Cornelius, NC, June 13, 2018 / / OVATION Wireless Management, a leader of Managed Mobility Solutions, is pleased to announce they have launched the first lease bundle of products and services for the logistics industry across America that includes Apple® products and mobility services in an effort to help fleets operate more efficiently. This initiative also helps to recruit and retain drivers by providing them the right tools and newest technology to support their work and make their lives easier.

iOS Leasing Bundle

Truck drivers today are faced with many challenges to try to source all the various components needed to make their job a safe and successful one. OVATION takes a streamlined approach to equipping trucks and drivers with the latest technology and best devices to help make the drivers’ experience optimal, while providing a total suite of technology and service solutions to meet all of the company’s policy objectives, risk and safety compliance measures, and to save fuel and labor expenses. The solution provides complete visibility of an entire fleet while enhancing customer service and increasing driver satisfaction (retention) rates.
With over 3.5 million truck drivers on the roads and over 70% of the goods carried in the U.S carried on trucks, the need is great for a total solution to bring safety, visibility and useful top notch products and services to this segment. Randall Light, CEO of OVATION states, “We wanted to create something unique that brings our experience of delivering wireless expense management, coupled with Apple’s world class products, to the transportation industry to help with their number one initiative, which is driver retention.”
Light further notes, “What we have built together is an affordable program for fleets to lease iPhones® and iPads® for their drivers along with mounts, wireless accessories, virtual driver training and education, ELD solutions and more, all with the iOS devices being at the center of it all.”
OVATION is working with other partners to bring this bundle to fleets, including Huntington Technology Finance, who will be providing the lease agreements, and Bigtincan, a content management platform service, will help fleets host and support company-specific operational programs, apps, and even their driver training and compliance programs on the iOS devices.
The driver lease bundle service includes many kitting options and can be customized and branded with a motor carrier’s logo and company colors for driver engagement and company brand promotion. Easy implementation with all existing wireless carrier rate plans, keeping all your existing numbers, with a buy-out program for existing device contracts and 24/7 customer service support for all users from OVATION makes it a simple decision.
“With our Professional Driver and Logistics Bundle, drivers will be able to securely communicate, operate, navigate and complete necessary safety training directly from a single iPhone® or iPad® device without having to leave their truck. This integrated device platform will be useful in consolidating critical truck and driver performance data and for use in fleet tracking apps, package scanning, signature capture, camera systems or even in-cab entertainment options”, comments OVATION’s Senior Vice President, Mobile Fleet Solutions, Lance Merklein. MacBook® and the complete line of iOS lease business solutions for management are available under this program as well.
OVATION and iOS bundles will help fleets keep drivers efficient and happy on the road, demonstrating innovative solutions and support as they strive to attract and retain top driver talent.
