Motive and Fleetio, a fleet maintenance platform, now have an expanded integration that centralizes fuel, maintenance, and telematics data. 

The solution provides two-way automated data workflows that, according to the company, will help eliminate manual tasks, strengthen safety and compliance, extend asset life, and provide fleets with greater visibility into fuel and maintenance operating costs.

The Motive-Fleetio integration introduces two new capabilities to meet fuel cost challenges:

  • Two-Way Driver Vehicle Inspection Report (DVIR) Sync: Defect resolutions now sync seamlessly through an automated, end-to-end DVIR process. When an issue is resolved in Fleetio, the corresponding DVIR defect in Motive automatically closes, allowing managers to act quickly and prevent unsafe dispatches

  • Motive Card Fuel Sync: Every Motive Card fuel transaction is automatically imported into Fleetio, giving fleets one source for cost tracking, budgeting, and International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA) reporting. By connecting fuel spend with driver behavior and asset health, admins can gain new insight into one of their largest expenses.

“This integration brings together fuel, telematics, and maintenance data in a way that helps companies not just react to challenges, but get ahead of them,” said Stefano Daneri, fleet ecosystem strategist at Fleetio. “It’s all about turning data into action, action into uptime, and uptime into long-term performance.”

Since 2018, Motive and Fleetio have worked together to unify maintenance and telematics data, enabling streamlined scheduling, fault tracking, service reminders, and asset insights. Today, Fleetio manages over 1 million assets.
