FLS (TomTom Telematics)

Webfleet is a web-based fleet management solution. According to the company's own history page, it was established in Leipzig, Germany during the dot-com boom by two founders and introduced by the start-up Data Factory AG as one of the world's earliest web-based fleet management solutions, a software-as-a-service offering that let fleets access technology without on-site installation. The page states that TomTom's acquisition of DataFactory in 2005 brought the Webfleet fleet management platform together with LINK devices, and that Webfleet launched TomTom WORK in 2006. The Webfleet platform covers vehicle tracking, fleet optimization, professional navigation and traffic, and workflow management, and is offered alongside vehicle tracking devices, driver terminals, mobile apps and fleet dash cams.

According to Webfleet's own company history page, during the dot-com boom two ambitious visionaries established Webfleet in Leipzig, Germany, as one of the world's earliest web-based fleet management solutions. It was introduced by the start-up Data Factory AG and allowed fleets to access technology without needing on-site installation, described as a pioneering software-as-a-service solution that set a new benchmark for scalability. In 2001 Webfleet partnered with Blaupunkt and Siemens to create one of the first integrated navigation systems, combining tracking with two-way communication. In 2005 TomTom's acquisition of DataFactory brought together the Webfleet fleet management platform with LINK devices, introducing connected navigation and order management; the page states Webfleet experienced rapid growth through international expansion, acquisitions and strategic partnerships, ultimately emerging as Europe's top fleet management solution. In 2006 Webfleet launched TomTom WORK, and in 2010 the PRO 7100 and 9100 Driver Terminals were introduced for enhanced driver connectivity.
