US based Telogis has provided Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) for the new IntelliDrive Fleet Safety Solutions program offered by Travelers.
IntelliDrive Fleet Safety Solutions facilitates the consulting services and resources to assist customers in enhancing their fleet vehicle operation understanding.
The solution includes speeding and hard braking, helping eliminate false or exaggerated claims by third parties allowing the companies reduce accidents and their associated costs, and also the total cost of insurance.
The company is offering its IntelliDrive Fleet Safety Solutions for local and intermediate fleet customers through Travelers and to its long haul trucking fleets by its Northland division.
Travelers Risk Control transportation director Chris Hayes said auto accidents are the leading cause of workplace injuries and fatalities.
"By reducing the risk of motor vehicle accidents, customers not only limit their liability, but preserve the life and health of their employees," Hayes said.
"IntelliDrive Fleet Safety Solutions can help by turning insights into concrete ways to improve fleet safety and reduce the substantial costs of operating a fleet."
The service is applicable to small, medium and large fleets serving a wide range of businesses, from automobiles employed for sales calls to box trucks used for delivery of goods to large trucks used in construction and long haul.
The telematics solution also enhances fuel efficiency and routing, reduced wear and tear on vehicles, identification of unauthorized vehicle use and stolen vehicle retrieval.
Telogis corporate strategy vice president Gary Hallgren said safety and telematics go hand-in-hand.
"Telematics helps businesses identify and act upon driving behaviors and situations that put employee safety and asset security at risk," Hallgren said.
We're excited to work with Travelers and Northland to provide customers with the safety and operational benefits of our location intelligence platform."
