Frost & Sullivan’s 2008 North American Mobility Award for Best MRM Solution for Handheld Device Goes to TeleNav for its TeleNav Track™ Solution



PALO ALTO, Calif.-- The Frost & Sullivan Mobility Awards Committee recognizes TeleNav Inc’s TeleNav Track™ with the 2008 Mobility Award for Best Mobile Resource Management (MRM) on a Handheld Device.

TeleNav Track combines the latest advances in GPS, wireless and Web technologies to make mobile workforce and asset management an affordable reality for businesses of all sizes. In review and analysis of all similar industry offerings, Frost & Sullivan found TeleNav Track to be the leader due to flexibility in offerings, range of services, ease of use and customer support. TeleNav Track has driven impressive returns on investment for thousands of organizations across the country.

The productivity, customer service, and cost benefits of MRM solutions are becoming increasingly clear – and forward-looking businesses are turning to MRM solutions to establish a competitive advantage in their respective industries.

“The North American MRM market is likely to exceed $1 billion in annual revenues by 2012 and as a market pioneer and leader in the handheld MRM space, TeleNav provides wireless carriers with an innovative, customer-focused solution that increases average revenue per user (ARPU) and intensifies subscriber loyalty,” says Frost & Sullivan Mobile & Wireless Research Director Brent Iadarola.

The company has successfully introduced a highly usable and innovative set of MRM features and capabilities into the TeleNav Track solution. The service leverages GPS and wireless technologies to provide a complete mobile workforce management system, including wireless job dispatching, GPS-enabled tracking and reporting, wireless barcode scanning, integrated GPS navigation, and customized wireless forms.

As businesses increasingly insist on a wide range of mobile services to efficiently manage and monitor field activities, TeleNav has designed a compelling MRM solution that enables customers to optimize business processes.

By enhancing field productivity while managing operational costs, Frost & Sullivan believes that TeleNav will continue to provide customers with valuable tools to satisfy customer demands and drive adoption of MRM in a broad variety of service industries. The Frost & Sullivan Mobility Awards recognize such outstanding industry achievements.

Each year, Frost & Sullivan presents Mobility Awards to top companies in a variety of Mobile & Wireless markets. The Awards recognize the diligence, perseverance, and dedication required to develop successful products, services, technologies, and solutions that have demonstrated unparalleled excellence in the increasingly competitive global marketplace.

Industry analysts compare market participants and measure performance through in-depth interviews, analysis, and extensive secondary research in order to identify best practices in the industry.
