Automated provisioning and control of telematics oem services

A method of modifying telematics device behavior comprising:

• providing software executing on a server, the server in communication with a plurality of vehicle telematics devices via a network;
• at the software, receiving data from each of the plurality of vehicle telematics devices;
• determining with the software, based on the data, that one of the plurality of vehicle telematics devices is installed in a vehicle, the data associated with one or more of a plurality of sensors associated with the vehicle;
• determining with the software, based on the data which includes GPS information, a position of the vehicle and based on the position transmitting via the software instructions to the one of the plurality of vehicle telematics devices, the instructions indicative of a reporting frequency and one or more data fields for the one of the plurality of telematics devices to transmit to the server;
• receiving a signal from the telematics device, the signal indicative of one of the plurality of sensors detecting a change in state of a vehicle in which the telematics device is installed and based on the change in state, the software sends second instructions to the telematics device such that the telematics device transmits and the server and software receives second information from the telematics device with a second reporting frequency and the second information including data from at least two of the plurality of sensors which of the second information from the at least two of the plurality of sensors includes data from at least one of the plurality of sensors which is not included in the information;
• based on the change in state said software provisions said telematics device with a new telecommunications plan by communicating with one of the one or more telecommunications provider servers, said software associating the new telecommunications plan with the one or more telematics devices in the storage and the new telecommunications plan having a higher data limit than the associated first telecommunications plan, the new telecommunications plan is matched by said software to the one more telematics devices based on the second reporting frequency and the information received with that second reporting frequency.
