Today' s next-generation Mobile Field Asset Management (FAM) solutions
encompass a broad portfolio of offerings, including local fleet management,
field service inventory tracking, and mobile product/cargo monitoring
services. Each of these data-centric solutions utilize a variety of wireless
technologies to remotely locate, track and manage mobile assets in the field.
The more savvy company also links these solutions to its backend corporate
software systems, providing management with real-time visibility,
reality-based reports, and integrated analyses. This is an evolving category
whose success is heavily dependent on accompanying hardware price points.
