Fleet management in North America has become one of the most rapidly developing fields in the enterprise technologies sector. According to Berg Insight's "Fleet Management in North America 2025" report, the installed base of active fleet management systems rose from 18.5 million in 2022 to 19.2 million by 2024 and is forecasted to increase to 33.2 million in 2029. This would mean 14 million units of additional demand within five years.

Despite the growing size of the market, the field is becoming increasingly consolidated. Large players like Geotab, Samsara, Verizon Connect, CalAmp, and Lytx control the lion's share of all installed telematics devices.

However, there is one notable outlier in this regard. One Step GPS stands out from the rest of the fleet management field by following an unusual business model for such enterprises.

The Only Major No-Contract Provider in the United States

Compared to other large telematics vendors, One Step GPS follows a distinctly different path in several ways.

Most importantly, One Step GPS has no long-term contracts with customers. Unlike other major telematics providers, which operate primarily via multi-year agreements, One Step GPS offers month-to-month pricing without being tied into fixed-term deals. This difference provides a major competitive advantage.

A no-contract telematics system can help businesses adapt to this type of situation much more flexibly compared to other solutions.

Customer Pain Points Are Often About Contractual Obligations

Common problems encountered by fleet management clients include poor support, high prices, low-quality tracking, and inflexible contracts.

However, the problem with contracts often turns out to be one of the biggest obstacles for potential fleet management customers. For many users, switching to a new provider is less a question of software quality and more about getting out of a contract that is too costly or otherwise unsuitable to their changing requirements.

This is another area where One Step GPS provides an attractive alternative for clients seeking flexible solutions to their fleet management challenges.

The Numbers Behind One Step GPS's Growth

Recent figures show why One Step GPS is currently attracting so much attention.

The company reports serving over 20,000 fleets in North America. Moreover, the company has appeared on the Inc. 5000 annual list of the fastest-growing firms in the United States for five consecutive years due to the continuous growth of its revenues.

Lastly, Berg Insight listed One Step GPS as one of the top 15 fleet management solution providers in North America based on the number of active installed units in 2025. Most importantly, it is the only no-contract vendor to make the list.

By making this list, One Step GPS demonstrates that a month-to-month model can still be highly successful despite competition from larger telematics providers targeting enterprise customers.

The Importance of the Midmarket Segment

While large fleets are expected to drive much of the anticipated growth in fleet management in the coming years, the most rapid development will actually take place in small and midsize commercial fleets. 

However, businesses in this category differ from large enterprises in how they conduct their procurement process. Procurement processes happen much more rapidly, decisions may be made by owner-managed companies, and businesses are interested in practical features more than highly complex enterprise solutions.

Moreover, such fleets often prefer user-friendly telematics solutions, quick support response times, and stable pricing plans. One Step GPS has been operating in this specific environment.

Why One Step GPS Is a Leading Company in Its Field

Unlike its competitors, which strive to achieve maximum scale, One Step GPS does not have to compete with giants such as Geotab and others to gain a leading position in the market.

Its significance lies in the way it implements the concept of a fleet management vendor. As the industry continues to develop, One Step GPS finds itself right at the crossroads of two main trends in this market: the growth in fleet management and the increased demand for more flexible service structures among fleets.

At present, it is unclear whether the firm will continue to grow further or hit a barrier. However, judging from the numbers, One Step GPS has already become one of the closest watched no-contract providers in North America.
