TomTom Business Solutions, the division dedicated to commercial fleets, today unveiled a new navigation fleet management unit for the North American market designed to help businesses improve productivity. The PRO 9150 portable fleet management solution  requires no installation and can be moved easily among vehicles in a fleet, the company said.

"The PRO 9150 combines navigation, GPS tracking, and work-order communication in an easy to use, portable solution," said Michael Geffroy, vice president of sales, North America for TomTom Business Solutions.

The connected PRO 9150 is the first device for commercial fleets to offer TomTom HD Traffic. By capturing and reporting more actual traffic jams, TomTom HD Traffic provides accurate reporting to help drivers avoid delays and better plan their arrival times. TomTom HD Traffic recognizes traffic conditions for all major and secondary roads within the U.S. roadnetwork, and by delivering real-time traffic updates every two minutes, drivers can steer clear of traffic sooner, the company said.

The PRO 9150 works with the TomTom WORKsmart solution to deliver vehicle tracking, job dispatch, time management, eco driving, and management reporting tools via a TomTom WEBFLEET subscription. WORKsmart's real-time dispatch features allow dispatchers and drivers to communicate through work status messages, reports on closest drivers to a customer, and instant delivery of customer addresses to drivers. Additionally, reporting features allow drivers to log time on site at jobs, as well as both private and business miles.

The new TomTom PRO 9150 will be made available in North America in Q2 2011 via authorized business partners.
