Software specialist MCS Rental Software has expanded its telematics portfolio with the addition of asset tracking and fleet management solutions. 

The company has added asset tracking capabilities from US-based Geoforce, a company that combines a cloud-based software platform with GPS tracking devices and global satellite and cellular networks to monitor the location, condition, and utilisation of assets.

Also based in the US, Samsara is a platform that provides fleet management, equipment monitoring, maintenance and reporting, as well as a range of other features.

It utilises real-time GPS data, full vehicle tracking, integrated route optimisation and custom route analysis to provide fleet owners with “top-tier visibility,” MCS said.

Nick Thomson, sales director, said, “The integration of Geoforce and Samsara into our telematics offering represents a strategic leap forward in our commitment to providing state-of-the-art rental solutions.

“We are allowing MCS users to track more of their equipment, while expanding the software’s accessibility to rental businesses worldwide. By incorporating Geoforce and Samsara into our portfolio, MCS reinforces its position as a trailblazer in comprehensive fleet and rental management.”

The integrations of Geoforce and Samsara solutions are the latest MCS has made to its software offering. Last year it added QR code functionality, MCS Check-Out and MCS Third-Party.
