TACHOSYNC - NEW SOLUTION FOR REMOTE TACHOGRAPH DATA MANAGEMENT
#teltonikatelematics, #corporatenews, #solution
We are pleased to announce the launch of TachoSync - a modern SaaS solution for remote tachograph data management. It will allow fleet operators to download driver and vehicle data from anywhere, automate compliance, and say goodbye to manual workflows for good.
THE NEEDS OF THE MARKET AND ESTIMATES OF ITS SIZE
Tachograph compliance is a legal requirement in EU countries, but it's traditionally been a resource-intensive process. Manual downloads, driver coordination, and physical access to vehicles - all lead to inefficiencies and potential fines. With growing fleet sizes and international operations, automation is no longer a luxury - it is a necessity.
According to the report, in Europe alone, there were over 7.9 million trucks and buses that will be legally required to use tachographs by 2024. By 2026, we expect this number to rise to 8.8 million, with an additional 700,000+ vans coming into the scope of tachograph regulations due to evolving EU compliance standards.
This represents a total addressable market (TAM) of nearly 9 million vehicles by 2027, each a potential candidate for automated, remote tachograph data processing.
HOW IT WORKS
The core components of the solution include the PROFESSIONAL family GPS tracker FMC650 or FMM650, Smart Tachograph, Driver Card, TachoSync, Company Card Authenticator (CCA) Application, Company Card, and a Smart Card Reader.
Once all the core components are in place, the key steps are as follows:
- Data collection from the tachograph - the solution starts with Teltonika FMx6 series device, which is installed in a vehicle and connected to a smart tachograph. Our tracker communicates with the smart tachograph and collects data such as driver activity, vehicle speed and other key metrics.
- Data transmission over the cellular network - once the data has been collected, it is sent over the cellular network to TachoSync. This is where the data is processed, verified, and digital tachograph files (downloaded data is packed into files) are created for further use. An easy-to-use platform is then made available to customers.
- Company Card Authentication - in addition to the FMx6 device, you also need to be able to remotely authenticate the tachograph with the company card. For this purpose, we have developed the CCA application, which reads the data from the company card and manages the authorisation with the tachograph. This application works with a smart card reader connected via USB to a computer with the Windows OS.
- API integration capability - customers have the flexibility to integrate their platform directly with TachoSync via API to access the data and functionality within their own systems. This flexibility supports different operational setups and workflows.
The new TachoSync is now available for fleet operators looking to modernise their tachograph compliance processes. Whether you are migrating from manual downloads or expanding an existing solution, Teltonika's telematics team is here to help. Please contact your account manager or local Teltonika office for more information or to schedule a demo and get started.
