Summary

A few years ago, MRM was typically a fleet management play, tracking and monitoring trucks via expensive in-vehicle systems and dedicated servers. Today's handset-based MRM solutions are significantly more affordable and have opened up our very under-penetrated North American market to a variety of new applications across an array of industries. Now, key MRM players -- including application developers, wireless carriers, device manufacturers, Independent Software Vendors (ISVs), and Systems Integrators -- must assess their strategies as MRM market consolidation pressures begin to build.
