Some companies are strong by their own but when creating alliances between them, gives room for continuous improvement. For example, this year, the leading African company Imperial (specialized in proving integrated market access and logistics solutions focus on healthcare, consumer, automotive, chemicals as well as industrial and commodities) announced its partnership with Mix Telematics (a leading SaaS provider of connected fleet management solutions), which since more than 10 years has been the supplier of Imperial.
The agreement between these two companies will mean the alignment of data and reporting through the implementation of risk management benefits across Imperial´s fleet. The integrated data will also provide a general view of operations, allowing the identification of trends for continuous efficiency improvements for Imperial.
Furthermore, safe vehicle and driver operations will be ensured by the bureau service of MiX while the fleet’s safety and monitoring will be enhanced with the MiX Vision camera solution and MiX Vision bureau service, the benefits of which are greater visibility and insights into Imperial’s vehicles and drivers in real-time.
The managing director of MiX Telematics Africa, Gert Pretorius, stated: “Our expertise in fleet telematics and security services adds value to Imperial’s business and is testament to how successful our solutions are at meeting the specific requirements of a leading logistics provider. Together, our advanced artificial intelligence powered technology solutions present new growth opportunities for both businesses”.
