Ooredoo has today announced the launch of a new “Smart” solution – Smart Fleet – designed to enhance Qatar's transport sector and boost the knowledge-based economy, in line with the Qatar National Vision 2030.

Ooredoo’s Smart Fleet Management Solution is designed to fit the needs of any company that has a fleet of vehicles, whether they operate in the services sector, transport and logistics, passenger transportation or construction.

The solution, which is an innovative cloud based service and deploys GPS and GSM technology, can centralise and manage all transport-related information so that companies can plan fleet activities, reduce operational costs and optimise resources.

Smart fleet management technology could provide a vital tool to reduce traffic pressure in Qatar, as companies use the solution to ensure their vehicles avoid jams and keep roads clearer and safer for other motorists. The service features a driver behaviour analysis tool that enables companies to track employees driving abilities, as well as fuel optimisation and saving options.

Waleed Al Sayed, Chief Operating Officer, Ooredoo Qatar, said: “We are going to make 2015 the year of ‘Smart Services’ for businesses. The launch of Smart Fleet services is an important step, since transport companies provide vital amenities for people and goods across the country, and this solution has an immediate impact on their activities.”

Using Ooredoo’s advanced 4G and 4G+ networks, fleet management solutions are able to manage a far higher and more advanced range of data, continually updating fleet managers about a vehicle’s location and status.

Ooredoo’s Smart Fleet Management Solution offers a host of features including route control, real time alarms, administration and fuel management, and fleet security.

Smart Fleet is available for a monthly subscription charge, following a one-off installation fee. With the operational cost savings available through deploying the solution, Ooredoo estimates that businesses will see a return on their investment from the solution in an average of six months.

Other benefits of Smart Fleet include a simple installation set-up and an estimated minimum 25% increase on customer satisfaction, maintenance and communication cost savings, and decrease in vehicle and cargo theft.

With M2M fleet management, companies can easily manage, automate, monitor, route and dispatch a fleet of vehicles within Qatar or internationally. Data capabilities on-board allow for both managers and drivers to access a flow of information

Machine-to-machine technology is fast transforming the face of business in Qatar. This new-age technology gives businesses the power to communicate directly with each other or with a central command centre, thereby automating day-to-day tasks and delivering maximum output with minimum investment in manpower, time and cost.

Ooredoo’s M2M data bundles offer a flexible pricing plan, from 100 MB to 50 GB packages, that can be shared among as many SIM cards as needed.

Ooredoo is expanding its range of smart business services in 2015 to cover a full range of essential industries, including public service sectors, healthcare, transportation and enterprises. To contact the business team, customers can call 800 8000. For more details, visit http://www.ooredoo.qa.
