Rogers Communications and Fleet Complete have announced a strategic partnership to provide Canadian businesses with a full range of cost-effective commercial fleet management and asset tracking solutions.
This collaboration will deliver connected technologies, including vehicle and asset GPS tracking, to businesses that own and operate fleets across Canada and the United States.
With this announcement, Rogers now offers customers an integrated management platform that allows businesses in all industries to offer a best-in-class customer experience by providing accurate arrival estimates and proof of delivery with time and location stamps. It offers a feature-rich solution that tracks vehicle productivity and driver behaviour, provides continuous vehicle location monitoring, and helps prevent potential breakdowns with scheduled maintenance.
“In partnership with Fleet Complete, Rogers is bringing Canadian businesses the latest in critical fleet management solutions,” says Dean Prevost, president, Rogers for Business. “With Fleet Complete’s innovative IoT platform, powered by Canada’s most trusted network[1], we are enabling fleet-owning businesses of all sizes to elevate the customer experience and use smart technologies to drive cost-effectiveness and improve safety.”
Rogers Fleet Complete solution also helps municipalities build smarter cities through the visibility and optimization of fleets including public transportation and city maintenance vehicles.
