Fleet Telematics Installation Rollouts Run To One Standard

API ProFleet is how we run large installations: one written scope, one install standard, one crew accountable for every vehicle โ€” so the data coming off truck 200 matches the data coming off truck 1. We come to your yards across Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina, and we work around your dispatch rather than the other way round.

API ProFleet™Fleet Installation Program

The Program

What Is API ProFleet?

API ProFleet is our program for fleets of 11 vehicles and up. At that size the install itself is the easy part. What decides whether the system earns its money is consistency: whether vehicle 47 was wired the same way as vehicle 3, whether the crew working one yard used the same ground point as the crew in the next city, and whether anyone wrote it down. We put that in writing before the first vehicle, and every vehicle after it is held to the same page.

It is the same technicians and the same 12-volt standard we bring to a single truck. What is added is the structure around it: a written spec per body type, a schedule your dispatcher can live with, verification on every unit before we leave the yard, and one person you can call from the first walkthrough to the add-on vehicles two years from now.

Why It Is Built This Way

Why A Large Fleet Is A Different Job

Because differences multiply. One truck installed inconsistently is one truck to revisit. Two hundred trucks installed inconsistently produce a dataset nobody trusts, and the fleet manager who paid for the system is the one asked to explain numbers they never controlled. Installation quality decides the accuracy of idle time, harsh braking, fuel burn, odometer readings and engine fault codes, and those five feed almost every decision made about a fleet.

The other reason is time. A rollout that stops trucks from working costs more than the hardware does. We stage units in advance, build the schedule around dispatch, and work early mornings, evenings and weekends so the vehicles keep earning during the day. On a staged rollout we install 40 to 50 vehicles in a day.

What You Get

What API ProFleet Includes

The Process

How A ProFleet Rollout Actually Runs

Four steps, in this order, every time.

One, the walkthrough

We look at a representative vehicle from each body type in your fleet and write the spec for each one. A box truck, a service van and a Class 8 tractor do not share a power source or a camera angle, and none of that gets guessed from a spreadsheet. This is also where takeouts get identified, because an old system left half-wired behind the dash is the most common surprise on a rollout.

Two, the pilot

We install a small first group, run the data for a few days, and confirm the reports say what they should before we scale. It is the step that keeps a single wiring decision from becoming a fleet-wide correction, and it costs almost nothing compared to redoing 200 vehicles.

Three, the rollout

Waves sized to your operation, on your schedule, with a running count of what is done. Multi-yard fleets run as one project with one standard, so a truck in one city is built exactly like a truck in another. Vehicles that are out working get caught on the next wave.

Four, the handoff

You get the spec sheets, the per-vehicle verification record and the photo set. One step stays human: somebody on your side confirms the vehicle list is current before we start, because a yard list that is three months old is the most common cause of a wasted trip. We will ask for it plainly.

A recent job

What Does An API ProFleet Rollout Look Like?

We recently installed GPS telematics on 70 vehicles for a South Carolina city fleet and removed the previous provider's devices, working in 7 visits of 10 vehicles each.

The city could only take 10 vehicles off the road at a time, so we came back seven times. Large fleets rarely park everything at once, and we schedule around the vehicles you can spare.

Specialized Systems

Which Specialized Systems Do You Install?

The equipment beyond GPS and cameras that transit, school and service fleets rely on.

A school bus with a camera on the stop arm side recording a car passing the extended arm

Stop-Arm Cameras

Cameras on the side of the school bus, wired to start recording when the stop arm goes out, to catch drivers who pass it.

A student tapping an RFID card on a reader at the school bus door

Student Ridership & RFID

Card readers at the bus door that log each student on and off, with the time and the bus location.

A dispatch screen showing vehicle locations on a map

CAD/AVL

Vehicle location and status sent to dispatch in real time, so the closest available unit gets the call.

A passenger counter sensor mounted above a bus door counting riders

Automatic Passenger Counters

Sensors over the doors that count riders on and off at every stop, for ridership numbers you can report.

An in-vehicle router connecting cameras, laptops and passenger devices

Onboard Wi-Fi & Routers

In-vehicle routers and roof antennas that connect the cameras, laptops and riders on board.

A laptop on a console mount kept clear of the airbag zones

Mobile Data Terminals

Laptop and tablet mounts, docks, power and antennas fitted clear of the airbags and the driver's controls.

A tractor-trailer with a pressure sensor on every tire and a trailer repeater

Tire Pressure Monitoring

A sensor on every tire, with low-pressure alerts sent to the cab and the shop, including on trailers.

Brand Agnostic On Purpose

Which Systems We Install

A mixed fleet that grew through three different buying decisions is normal. We handle all of it in one visit rather than one brand at a time.

Geotab
Samsara
Motive
Lytx
Verizon Connect
Netradyne
Powerfleet
CalAmp
Surfsight
Quartix
Hardwired & OBD-II
Asset & trailer units

We also handle the work that sits around the device: PTO and hydraulics, lift gates and dump bodies, spreaders and sweepers, boom lifts, compressors and pumps, plus backup and multi-camera systems. If it runs on twelve volts and it belongs on the vehicle, it is ours to install.

Fit

Who API ProFleet Is Built For

Multi-location fleets with vehicles across several yards, cities or states, where the real risk is each site quietly getting done a little differently.

Mixed-brand fleets running more than one platform at once, often because the fleet grew by acquisition or by changing providers mid-stream.

Fleets already reporting data they do not trust, where the hardware tests fine and the numbers still make no sense.

Municipal and public-sector fleets with procurement paperwork, fixed windows and a standard that has to survive an audit. Our municipal fleet work runs on the same program.

Growing fleets adding vehicles a few at a time that still have to match the original build exactly.

Questions We Get Asked

API ProFleet, Answered

How many vehicles do we need for API ProFleet?

Eleven. That is roughly where a written standard starts earning its keep, because it is the point where keeping every vehicle straight from memory stops working. At 1 to 10 vehicles, API FleetStart gives you the same technicians and the same install standard, organised around what you need instead.

Can you work across several yards at once?

Yes. We schedule multi-site rollouts as a single project on one standard, so a vehicle in one yard is built exactly like a vehicle in another. You get one schedule and one point of contact, not one per location.

What happens to the trucks that are out working?

They get caught on the next wave. We plan around the vehicles that are hardest to pin down rather than assuming the whole fleet parks on the same night, and we come back for the stragglers.

Our telematics data has been wrong for months. Can ProFleet fix that?

Yes. We diagnose it on the vehicle, correct the installs, and tell you which historical metrics were affected so you know which reports to set aside and which ones you can keep trusting.

Do you install hardware we already own?

Yes. We install what you have, whatever brand it is and whatever mix of hardwired and OBD-II units it includes. If you have not settled on hardware yet, we will tell you what installs cleanly on your body types before you commit.

What do you need from us before the first vehicle?

A current vehicle list with VINs and where each one sits, and one person we can reach during the rollout. That is it. We handle the rest.

Can you take out an old system and fit the new one in the same visit?

Yes. Takeout and new install happen in one visit, so a vehicle comes off the line once rather than twice, and the old wiring is removed rather than left behind the dash.
