Penske Logistics, through its parent Penske Truck Leasing, has signed a software license agreement with XATA Corp for its new XataNet software application suite. In conjunction with the agreement, Penske will equip a portion of its fleet with XataNet software applications that will enable Penske to automate driver logs, monitor state line crossings, and calculate fuel tax. Penske evaluated the XataNet software applications in a multi-site pilot program.
The XataNet family of Web-based applications is compatible with various hardware and communications platforms and peripheral devices.
