Why companies work with ForkOn

  • Manufacturer-independent

    We do not sell industrial trucks and do not favour any vehicle brand. Our solutions allow mixed fleets to be looked at in a uniform way.

  • Practical

    We combine data with the actual situation on site. That produces recommendations oriented towards operational requirements.

  • Personal

    Our contacts accompany you from the first question to the evaluation and the next steps.

Where we come from

ForkOn grew out of a simple observation: anyone who operates vehicles from different manufacturers needs one common view of the fleet.

  1. 2017

    Founding of ForkOn

    ForkOn is founded in Haltern am See – with the aim of making fleet management possible independent of the manufacturer.

  2. The ForkX fleet-management platform

    With ForkX a manufacturer-independent platform emerges that brings together information from different vehicles.

  3. Extension with telematics

    Our own telematics solutions create the data basis, also for vehicles without an existing digital interface.

  4. Extension with the audit and the material-flow analysis

    With the 360° Intralog Audit and the material-flow analysis ForkOn extends the platform by professional assessment and project-related measurements.
