Xata Corporation (NASDAQ: XATA) provides on-demand software and services to the trucking industry. Based in Eden Prairie, Minn., Xata’s software solutions and services deliver data on vehicle and driver performance. Fleet managers, dispatchers and drivers collect, sort, view and analyze the data to improve savings, safety and regulatory compliance. Xata was the first company to introduce electronic driver logs and exception-based management reporting. Its fleet operations management systems have been installed on more than 100,000 commercial trucks at more than 2,000 customer locations.

Xata solutions include XataNet, a full fleet solution for private and for-hire fleets[1], and Xata Turnpike, a solution that runs on drivers’ existing cell phones, smartphones and tablet computers[2]. Both solutions help fleet managers and drivers meet established and emerging electronic onboard recorder (EOBR) regulations.

In 2010, Xata earned the rank of 363 on the Technology Fast 500(TM) list, which is Deloitte LLP’s ranking of 500 of the fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences and clean technology companies in North America[3]. The Minnesota High Tech Association (MHTA), in partnership with Enterprise Minnesota and LifeScience Alley, named Xata Corporation as the recipient of the 2009 Tekne Award in the Technology Services award category[4].
