LISLE, Ill., June 15, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Navistar, Inc. today announced the addition of Shaw Tracking, one of Canada's major telematics providers, to its industry-leading, open architecture remote diagnostics system, OnCommand™ Connection (OCC) for its flagship brand of International® trucks.
"OnCommand™ Connection has had an extremely rapid rollout in the Canadian market, and we believe, with the addition of Shaw Tracking, we are set up to provide a telematics and remote vehicle health monitoring solution to every customer," said Mike Cerilli, Vice President and General Manager, Connected Vehicle Business, Navistar. "Furthermore, Navistar's partnership with Shaw Tracking demonstrates our commitment to partnering with reputable providers our customers currently leverage, in order to help monitor and optimize their fleet's performance."
