leading provider of wireless solutions for the Internet of Things,

to surveillance specialist QVIS Monitoring LTD in the United
Kingdom. Under the partnership, Novatel Wireless is supplying QVIS
with a feature-rich out of the box-ready telematics solution which
includes the MiFi® Drive model MT 3060, events reporting software,
and airtime. The new offering enables QVIS to add a new line of
service with recurring revenue to their business model, with mobile
tracking solutions optimized for both usage based insurance and
fleet management servicing consumers, commercial businesses, and
government fleets.
"Novatel Wireless was quickly identified as having
best, most versatile offering on the market," said Darryl Froome,
Account Manager of QVIS LTD. "QVIS is known for providing
sophisticated monitoring services to businesses, so the addition of
mobile tracking is a perfect complete to our portfolio. Novatel
Wireless delivers a compelling proposition with best in class
technology, managed services and support, and airtime in one tight
bundle. This type of all-in-one solution is exactly what we needed
in order to quickly deliver on our customers' desire to deploy
mobile tracking as part of their overall monitoring programs."
The MiFi Drive mobile tracking solution is
optimized for quick and simple deployment, comprised of a device,

a cellular powered plug-and-play device that can be installed in
minutes by any driver via the vehicle's OBD II port. The device's
on-board smart agent collects and controls critical vehicle data
and securely delivers that information to the cloud. With the
software, the customer is empowered to run a series of real-time
reports based on customized events, such as location, driver
behaviour, and vehicle diagnostics. QVIS offers the service via a
monthly fee to their business customers.
"We're delighted to have been selected as the
preferred solution for the launch of this new business offering,"

sales and marketing. "We address the technical complexities so that
our customers can focus on their core business only with no
