Atlanta, Georgia (PRWEB) November 21, 2005 -- GEOCOMtms, a global provider of Fleet Management solutions for local pickup and delivery, announced today the launch of A.MAZE Now, the first fully integrated fleet management solution to be delivered as a service. Designed for mid-sized organizations that operate a private or dedicated fleet, A.MAZE Now is an advanced route planning and scheduling solution that enables private fleet operators to significantly reduce fuel, maintenance, and personnel costs associated with local pickup and delivery operations.

“Private fleet operators are always looking for better ways to manage their operation,” said Michael Nark, president and chief executive officer of GEOCOMtms. “This is particularly true for local pickup and delivery environments, where manual processes dominate. Many organizations have difficulty improving performance, however, because they lack the resources to implement new solutions. A.MAZE Now is designed for companies that want to optimize daily pickup and delivery, but aren’t prepared to support the technology infrastructure these solutions require.”

Vehicle routing and scheduling can be a complex, time-consuming activity. In many instances, the people responsible for daily planning are also assigned to other high-priority tasks. A.MAZE Now is an innovative approach that frees up these resources. Working with service partners that specialize in transportation logistics, GEOCOMtms provides an outsourced routing and scheduling service that gives fleet operators access to a proven fleet management solution without the need to implement or support additional software.

“Providing software as a service is an innovative approach that is ideally suited for mid-sized organizations that want to take advantage of fleet management solutions but aren’t ready to commit to a full scale implementation,” said Jonathan Ball, president of Transportation Technology Sales, a GEOCOMtms service partner. “A.MAZE Now eliminates the need for software, hardware, and even training, while picking up some of the workload for already overburdened personnel.”

Effective routing and scheduling solutions can deliver measurable benefits for private fleet operators, including reduced fuel consumption, lower personnel and contractor costs, and more consistent service to customers. A.MAZE Now provides additional benefits because it requires:

- No software
- No hardware
- No training
- No internal resources
