‘We are proud to showcase the City’s latest innovation in fleet security, safety and operational efficiency. The live demonstration highlighted the installation process, tracking technology and new protocols designed to safeguard City assets and improve service delivery. The City of Cape Town manages a large and complex fleet that is central to service delivery across our communities. This new tracking technology is more than a technical upgrade, it represents a commitment to safety, accountability and efficiency,’ said the City’s Mayoral Committee Member for Corporate Services, Alderman Theresa Uys.
Key benefits of the new fleet tracking rollout:
The new tracking technology allows for web-based monitoring of the City’s fleet, which means that managers and supervisors will have sight of their respective fleets from any approved device, with secure passwords and access control.
The rich telematics data that the new system offers the City will allow for systems development and data analytics to measure and improve efficiencies in the use of the City’s Fleet.
The new tracking contract is a foundational element in the design and implementation of the envisaged Fleet Risk and Operations Control Centre (FROCC), which will address challenges such as efficiency, productivity, cost savings, data-driven decisions and environmental responsibility.
‘This initiative positions Cape Town at the forefront of municipal fleet innovation in South Africa. It is another example of how the City continues to embrace technology to deliver services better, safer, and smarter for our customers and residents,’ concluded Alderman Uys.
