Integrating with Penske's Maintenance Platform

Overview

Customer have the ability to integrate Samsara with Penske' Maintenance Platform. This integration is owned and managed by a third-party System Integrator called Assured Telematics (ATI).

This integration enables the following:

• Ability to view defects submitted through Samsara DVIRs that drivers fill out in Penske
• Ability to resolve those defects in Penske and have that resolved status filter back into Samsara

NOTE: when defects on an Unsafe DVIR are deemed not necessary to be resolved by Penske, you will need to acknowledge and resolve those defects within the Samsara dashboard before the vehicle can be operated in order to be compliant with FMCSA regulations (section 396.12c).

More information on how to resolve defects and DVIRs can be found here.
