(NASDAQ:IDSY), a leading provider of enterprise asset management technology and solutions for the Industrial Internet of Things, has received additional orders from a division of a Fortune® 10 global industrial manufacturer for I.D. Systems’ PowerFleet® Vehicle Management System. The new orders for a third additional site continue the customer’s rollout of VMS in facilities throughout North America.

Systems. “With employee safety as a top priority for many organizations, including for this new customer, our VMS delivers a safer workplace by controlling access to vehicles, providing in-depth insight into operator behavior, monitoring and identifying safety issues, and helping companies establish best practices in their facilities.”
