Burlington, MA – September 6, 2007 —
Maptuit Corporation today announced KLLM Transport Services will
be deploying FleetNav Directions throughout its national fleet
of 1400 trucks providing its drivers with the industry’s
best–in–class truck–to–dock turn–by–turn directions. KLLM
is joining the growing number of leading trucking companies that
are taking advantage of FleetNav’s hightly sophisticated routing
technology which ensures driver safety, improves fleet
efficiencies, providing greater fuel savings and improved
overall customer satisfaction. KLLM also expects to
upgrade to Maptuit NaviGo in the very near future. Maptuit
NaviGo is the first and only truck specific real–time, hybrid
navigation solution that offers spoken turn–by–turn directions
and uses the nation’s most accurate dynamic road network.
"At KLLM we are a driver–focused company. We
understand that these professionals are key contributors to our
Company’s success and we remain committed to supporting them
accordingly. It is our desire to provide our drivers and
managers with all of the tools necessary to perform their jobs
efficiently and safely. Maptuit delivers on these promises
by providing our drivers with the industry’s most accurate truck
routing available" stated K. William Grothe, Jr., President

"We are in the business of providing our customers with
real–time information that affects their business and their
bottom line" stated Jeff Papows, President and CEO of
Maptuit. "With the only dynamic road network our
customers take real advantage of our expertise. As recent
as the bridge collapse in Minnesota or as far back as hurricanes
Rita and Katrina on the gulf coast, we were able to shut down
entire highways and roadways and re–route our customers’ trucks
around those affected areas; being able to do this in real–time
makes Maptuit the solution for today’s trucking needs and gives
our customers a competitive edge. We are happy to have
KLLM join Maptuit and the growing community of drivers."
FleetNav Directions is a subscription–based solution that
integrages with all leading fleet management and mobile
communicaitons systems to provide a comprehensive transportation
optimization solution.
