The Monarch GPS Insight integration (also called Monarch Tracking or Monarch ELD) pulls real-time truck location data and IFTA miles from Monarch into Alvys, enabling visibility on the Asset Map and simplified IFTA compliance reporting.

What This Integration Does

Monarch GPS Insight is an Electronic Logging Device (ELD) solution popular among logistics companies operating near the border. Once configured, Alvys pulls real-time truck location data and IFTA miles from Monarch automatically. This gives dispatchers and operations teams live visibility into truck locations on the Load Details page and Asset Map, and populates the IFTA Report with accurate mileage for simplified compliance reporting.
