ATLANTA , June 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ – Geotab, a global leader in connected operations, video telematics, and AI-powered insights, today announced the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) has selected Geotab as its new fleet data and telematics provider following a thorough, multi-phase pilot review process. The partnership will equip TDOT's fleet with Geotab's core telematics technology and integrated forward-facing camera solutions, focusing on delivering the robust data pipeline and enhanced visual context required to manage a modern state transit operation.

State DOTs handle everything from snowplows to specialized highway assets, meaning managers need real visibility into equipment metrics like PTO engagement and onboard sensors. Geotab is built for these exact demands, giving transportation teams the clear information they need to keep crews safe and operations running smoothly.

TDOT's deployment focuses on core vehicle visibility and camera upfitting, which provides several immediate advantages:

“For a DOT, a vehicle isn't just a vehicle, it's a sophisticated mobile asset performing a critical public service, and the technology behind it has to match that responsibility. Geotab is purpose-built for exactly this kind of complexity,” said Neil Garrett, VP of Public Sector at Geotab. “We're proud to partner with TDOT to give their team a unified picture of every asset on the road, so they can focus on what matters: keeping Tennessee's infrastructure moving safely and efficiently.”

With this agreement, Geotab continues to expand its role as a trusted telematics partner for government entities. Geotab remains the leading telematics standard for state DOTs and public administrations nationwide, while also serving as the sole-source supplier to the entire United States federal fleet.
