Fleetio has expanded its integration with Geotab by introducing a Shop Network add-in within MyGeotab, allowing fleet managers to locate and direct drivers to nearby maintenance shops without leaving the Geotab platform.

The feature enhances maintenance coordination by leveraging Fleetio’s Maintenance Shop Network, which connects fleets with thousands of national, independent, and mobile service providers to expedite repair approvals and provide real-time visibility into outsourced maintenance activity, Fleetio claims.

While dispatchers and fleet managers can search for verified and unverified maintenance shops based on a vehicle’s GPS location, the system also enables fleets to filter for their most trusted providers, access shop details such as pricing and available services, and coordinate repair approvals directly within Fleetio.

This development builds on Fleetio’s existing integration with Geotab, which allows customers to sync real-time telematics data, including GPS tracking, engine fault codes, sensor data, and utilization metrics, into Fleetio for a holistic view of fleet performance and health, according to the release.
