Premium location-based services in Norway from Daniel Edibe? GPS was available in its early stages, but it wasn’t necessarily cheap. In order to track fleet vehicles, each and every vehicle had to be outfitted with a large, clunky, and expensive GPS tracking device. Plus, companies had to pay a hefty fee just to access the GPS satellite system. Combined with the slow growth of computer technology and even slower internet speeds, GPS was a technology saved for only the wealthiest and most powerful fleet companies, creating a larger division of wealth between the top-tier fleet companies and smaller companies looking to make their mark on the industry.

Even before GPS was developed, fleet telematics was invented in 1974 — or at least the origins of it. The U.S. automobile industry had begun a form of fleet telematics; as new cars rolled out of assembly plants via the Ford, Chrysler and General Motors manufacturers, they were cataloged using an electronic process. When orders were placed, a mainframe-to-mainframe method of communicating was used to process orders electronically, and vehicle status reports were generated using computer technology. This was the beginning of fleet tracking.
