Installed Base of Fleet Management Systems in the Americas to Reach 22 Million Units by 2022
August 15, 2018 | Berg InsightEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
According to a new report from the leading IoT market research provider Berg Insight, the number of active fleet management systems deployed in commercial vehicle fleets in North America was 8.0 million in Q4 2017. Growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.6%, this number is expected to reach 16.4 million by 2022. In Latin America, the number of active fleet management systems is expected to increase from 3.0 million in Q4-2017, growing at a CAGR of 13.1% to reach 5.5 million in 2022. The top-25 vendors in the Americas together have a combined installed base of more than 7 million active units in the region today. Notably, all the top-15 players each had more than 100,000 active units in the Americas at the end of 2017. More than 40% of the total number of units deployed in the region is represented by the five largest fleet management vendors alone. Verizon has in 2018 launched Verizon Connect which represents the culmination of more than $ 5 billion in investments including high-profile acquisitions such as Fleetmatics and Telogis.
“Verizon Connect is the clear leader in the fleet telematics space both from a global perspective and in the Americas specifically,” said Rickard Anderson, principal analyst, Berg Insight. Verizon’s closest competitor in the Americas is Geotab which has grown considerably in the past year, followed by Omnitracs and Trimble which have both surpassed 0.5 million active fleet management subscribers in the region.
“Zonar Systems rounds off the top-5, just ahead of Michelin which has established a strong position in the Americas through multiple acquisitions”, continued Andersson. He adds that the ongoing consolidation trend in the fleet management space is expected to continue in the coming years. Numerous vendors today have more than half a million active FM subscribers worldwide and the milestone of one million subscriptions has now been surpassed by three leading players, driven by growth strategies based on M&A activity and high-pace organic growth. “Berg Insight anticipates a future scenario where the global fleet management market is dominated by a handful of solution providers with installed bases measured in the millions,” concluded Andersson.
