Navteq: the time is right for business integrated geospatial solutions

Says Eric Fumat, Vice President and General Manager, NAVTEQ Business Solutions EMEA: enterprises invested massively in the 80s and 90s to streamline their internal processes and benefited from the latest innovations in software and computer technologies.
Now it’s time to look externally!
Huge productivity gains are at hand for enterprises looking to optimise and manage their mobile
assets and lift them out of a ‘black hole’. Companies eager to improve their bottom line
and increase customer satisfaction will have to adopt our industry‘s offering because the price
of oil will probably remain high.
Also, technologies now allow mobile asset management solutions to be deployed cost effectively. Mobile GPS devices, fast communication technologies and Internet-based solutions are all converging as robust and proven tools offered by our industry.
So great is the return on investment that decision makers can no longer ignore our joint offerings.
It’s not unusual to save anything from 7 to 15 per cent of the operating costs by optimising the
dispatch of field technicians or delivery vans.
NAVTEQ works daily with its partners to deliver fitfor- purpose integrated geospatial solutions that let them seamlessly optimise, track and navigate.
Only then can our customers’ mobile assets get out of that black hole.
