Digital GPS tracking & fleet-management system to be installed on mobile install vehicles

PONTIAC, Mich., Aug. 31  -- Guidepoint Systems today announced that it has begun shipping its GSM-based tracking fleet management solution to Northbrook, Ill.-based Donlen Corporation, the fastest-growing fleet leasing and management company in North America.

The Pontiac, Mich.-based supplier of stolen vehicle recovery, driver safety/convenience and fleet solutions said the initial units being shipped would be used to outfit a mobile installation workforce fleet of more than 250 vehicles. Donlen Corporation will provide system installation and fleet management services to the fleet operator, which maintains one of the largest fleets in its industry.

The Guidepoint fleet solution, which operates on the nationwide Cingular(R) Wireless GSM(TM)/GPRS/EDGE network, is targeted to small and mid- size enterprises with fleets of two to 300 vehicles. Designed with a "less is more" philosophy, Guidepoint offers the features most desired by fleet operators, including history reporting, stop reporting, and location-based tracking. Additionally, Guidepoint's fleet solution offers a number of specially available features, including an optional in-vehicle panic button, with 24/7/365 response center assistance and stolen vehicle recovery and emergency support.

"We're pleased to work with Donlen Corporation to provide a cost-effective and feature-rich fleet solution for small to mid-sized enterprises," President and CEO Rand Mueller said. "There are tens of thousands of vehicle fleets that can reap substantial and immediate ROI by using a GPS-based solution to manage and protect their mobile assets.
