Background

Operating Context

What Needed to Improve

  • Slower access to vehicle location when a theft event was reported.
  • Limited proactive alerts for unauthorized movement and geofence exits.
  • Inconsistent historical route review during recovery coordination.
  • Manual checks across thousands of connected vehicles.
