Ascend Access: Integrating Telematics with Keyless Vehicle Access
Ascend Access is a state-of-the-art solution that provides keyless remote access and control over your vehicles, all through a single, unified application on the Launch Mobility platform. In essence, it allows you to remotely lock and unlock your fleet vehicles, eliminating the need for traditional physical keys. This represents a significant leap forward in optimizing modern fleet operations.
How Ascend Access Works for Your Business: A Guide to Seamless Fleet Management
Ascend Access, a core feature of the Launch Mobility platform, is designed to bring unprecedented efficiency and control to your fleet. Its strength lies in its ability to adapt to your specific needs, whether you have an existing telematics system or are starting fresh.
Two Paths to Total Control:
Ascend Access offers a solution for every kind of fleet.
Scenario 1: You Have an Existing Telematics Provider
We understand that many organizations already use telematics providers (like Geotab or Samsara) to gather crucial fleet data, such as:
-
GPS Location: Knowing a vehicle’s real-time position.
-
Fuel Levels: Monitoring consumption and planning for refueling.
-
Battery Status: Ensuring vehicles are ready for operation.
However, a common challenge with many of these providers is the lack of functionality for remote vehicle locking and unlocking. This creates an operational gap—you have valuable data, but limited direct control over your assets.
Ascend Access is specifically designed to fill this gap. By integrating it with your preferred telematics provider, you achieve a truly comprehensive fleet management ecosystem:
-
Unified Data View: All your real-time vehicle telemetry (location, diagnostics, usage data) from your existing provider is seamlessly displayed within the intuitive Launch Mobility app.
-
Expanded Remote Control: Crucially, Ascend Access directly adds the ability to remotely lock and unlock vehicles from the very same app. You can maintain your existing infrastructure while gaining essential keyless entry and control capabilities.
Scenario 2: You Don't Have a Telematics Provider
If your organization does not currently use a telematics system, Ascend Access is a perfect solution for gaining fundamental vehicle control.
Ascend Access can operate as a powerful, standalone keyless entry system. It allows you to:
-
Instantly Lock and Unlock: Secure and grant access to your vehicles remotely from the Launch Mobility app.
-
Streamline Operations: Manage access without the need for physical keys, perfect for car-sharing, rental, or internal fleet use.
This standalone capability provides a simple, direct path to modern, keyless fleet management, even if you don't require the full suite of telematics data.
Key Benefits for Enhanced Fleet Management
Regardless of your setup, implementing Ascend Access brings significant advantages to your organization:
-
Seamless User Experience: Ascend Access centralizes all remote vehicle management functionality into a single, intuitive application. This significantly streamlines operational processes and reduces complexity for both drivers using the mobile app and managers using Mission Control (the administrative interface).
-
Comprehensive Remote Vehicle Control: The solution empowers both drivers and managers to execute remote locking and unlocking commands with ease, ensuring broad accessibility and robust control across your entire fleet.
