Type-Approved OBM Systems
The following is a list of OBM systems type-approved by TCA for use in conjunction with the relevant schemes under the National Telematics Framework that use OBM systems.
Smart OBM systems need to be paired with a certified Application Service Provider (ASP). The ASPs use type-approved telematics devices when pairing with a Smart OBM system. There are approved pairings between ASPs and Smart OBM system suppliers.
Notes:
1- TCA’s type-approved OBM systems can be identified using the TCA Type-Approved logos (right), which correspond with the category of type-approval attained by the system supplier.
2- TCA’s type-approval applies only to the individual systems listed below. Any other system types offered by suppliers have not been type-approved by TCA.

TCA also type-approves Smart OBM systems to Category C. Currently, there are no type-approved OBM systems at Category C, however you can find out more about what to expect from a Smart OBM (Category C).
Check out our OBM fact sheet.
Certificate of Conformance
A Certificate of Conformance for each TCA-approved OBM system will be made available by the OBM supplier (or associated agent, distributor or retailer) at the point of supply to transport operators of each OBM system.
The current cost to the OBM supplier for each certificate of conformance is AUD $20 (excl GST).
