The solutions and [technology for automobile manufacturers](https://www.financedigest.com/technology-skills-and-servitization-a-brighter-future-for-manufacturing.html "TECHNOLOGY, SKILLS AND SERVITIZATION: A BRIGHTER FUTURE FOR MANUFACTURING?") and importers will expand ERM’s current offerings, which mainly target fleet management and stolen vehicle recovery service providers. ERM [Advanced Telematics is an international automotive technology](https://www.financedigest.com/the-automotive-interior-materials-market-to-undergo-decisive-technological-advancements.html "The Automotive Interior Materials Market To Undergo Decisive Technological Advancements") vendor, whose products are installed in more than 1.5 million vehicles worldwide. ERM Advanced Telematics, founded in 1985, is headquartered in Israel and operates in over 65 countries in North, Central and South America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia. The company’s solutions are based on a range of wireless technologies, including cellular communications, RF, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. ERM offers a wide range of modular solutions that improve the protection, management, and diagnostics of vehicles, vehicle fleets, and valuable assets, reducing [operating costs](https://www.financedigest.com/uk-pub-operator-wetherspoons-loss-narrows-despite-higher-costs.html "UK pub operator Wetherspoon’s loss narrows despite higher costs") for both the service provider and the end customer. Over the [coming year](https://www.financedigest.com/food-fiber-market-to-exhibit-increased-demand-in-the-coming-years.html "Food Fiber Market to Exhibit Increased Demand in the Coming Years"), ERM intends to offer a series of solutions, which will include advanced analytics capabilities enabling automotive manufacturers and importers to predict upcoming expenses (‘money events’) over a vehicle’s lifecycle and accordingly build customized proposals for vehicle owners and fleet managers. The broad range of ERM [products will include products that integrate its CAN Engine technology](https://www.financedigest.com/u-s-lighting-products-market-recent-strategies-trends-technology-innovation-analysis-application-by-tmr.html "U.S. Lighting Products Market: Recent Strategies, Trends, Technology Innovation, Analysis Application by TMR"), which the company developed to provide a full vehicle diagnostics solution, various wireless communication and diverse add-on sensors interfacing technologies. In combination with ERM StarLink technology for telematics [applications products](https://www.financedigest.com/amino-acids-premixes-market-overview-analysis-with-application-product-source-opportunity-and-region-2022-2029.html "Amino Acids Premixes Market Overview & Analysis with Application, Product, Source, Opportunity and Region 2022-2029"), this diagnostics solution retrieves and conducts smart analysis of the vehicle’s operation in real time, and sends alerts of predefined events to a server. For example, the vehicle importer can obtain real-time information about an accident or malfunctions in the vehicle, contact the [driver and offer immediate and targeted assistance](https://www.financedigest.com/tesla-reports-two-new-fatal-crashes-involving-driver-assistance-systems.html "Tesla reports two new fatal crashes involving driver assistance systems") as needed.

They will also be able to obtain real-time assistance from the manufacturers and [importers to deal](https://www.financedigest.com/exclusive-indian-car-makers-propose-tax-cut-on-imports-in-trade-deal-with-britain.html "Exclusive-Indian car makers propose tax cut on imports in trade deal with Britain") with malfunctions and accidents. For example, the vehicle manufacturers and importers can know when the vehicle’s battery health is low, and offer the driver a reduced [price or other benefits if he goes to their service center to buy](https://www.financedigest.com/rising-oil-prices-buy-iran-time-in-nuclear-talks-officials-say.html "Rising oil prices buy Iran time in nuclear talks, officials say") a new original battery.
