Company Information
CAMS Software provides innovative transportation solutions designed specifically to meet the
distinct and demanding requirements of large-scale grocery distribution. Since 1998, we have
deployed to over 115 major grocery distribution centers all across North America.
Grocery transportation typically involves short-range distribution of grocery and perishable
product to and from the same locations over and over. Oftentimes this is done using a large
private fleet. Most Transportation Management Systems (TMSs) are designed primarily for shipping with the lowest cost of transportation, not necessarily managing your own private fleet and
all the associated challenges.
CAMS Software designs solutions to handle the numerous challenges unique to grocery transportation such as driver bids, activity based compensation, on-time delivery performance and
tracking, backhaul and salvage optimization, reusable asset tracking, driver efficiency tracking
and so on. For these reasons, CAMS Software is the TMS solution provider of choice for more
major grocery companies than any other TMS.

Introduction
Mobi is a full-featured onboard computer system for commercial truck fleets. It is also a certified
electronic logging device (ELD) used to record driver records of duty status (RODS).
Mobi is an Android application running on a tablet mounted on the tractor dashboard. It is integrally synchronized with the tractor engine control module (via J1939) to automatically record
engine power status, engine hours, mileage, vehicle motion status, speed and other operational
data.
Mobi captures tractor location and routing data using the global positioning system (GPS) and
communicates via a cellular data network with the Mobi cloud-hosted application. This back
office application, accessed through a web browser, is used to monitor driver duty times, edit
hours-of-service logs, generate ELD reporting and provide troubleshooting support.
System Overview

ELD Certification
Mobi has been tested and self-certified to be compliant with US FMCSA ELD regulations including all the most recent amendments. The driver's log file export is generated according to the
latest ELD data element dictionary released by FMCSA.
