XATA Corporation (Nasdaq: XATA) announced that long-time customer NAPA Transportation has signed an agreement to roll out XATANET to its entire 220-vehicle for-hire fleet in November-December 2010.

Mechanicsburg PA-based NAPA Transportation operates from Maine to Georgia and serves food and consumer-products companies. By upgrading now, NAPA Transportation gains an advantage that will make it easy to comply with CSA 2010 and associated regulations.

XATANET, running with a new Digi Corporation X5 onboard computer, is the next generation of XATA’s fleet management software, and is part of the company’s $30 million investment in the for-hire market. It combines the best MobileMax and XATANET features under one umbrella, giving fleets one hardware platform and a range of advanced functionality, including electronic driver logs, real-time alerts, exception-based reporting, and driver and vehicle CSA Risk Scorecards.

As part of this implementation, NAPA will be installing TREQ-L in-cab displays in all its vehicles. These displays feature full-color touch screens that make it easy for drivers to record their hours of service and to conduct other cab-based administrative functions.
