National Taxi Union to install over 100,000 taxis with Ctrack
SaaS Solutions
Novatel Wireless, Inc. (Nasdaq:MIFI), a leading global provider
of solutions for the Internet of Things (IoT), including
software-as-a-service (SaaS), today announced that it has signed a
partnership with the Cameroon National Taxi Union to provide Ctrack
vehicle tracking and driver behavior monitoring to the taxi
industry in the Republic of Cameroon.
Taxis are the primary mode of transportation across the African
continent. In Cameroon alone, taxis transport over 8 million
commuters daily. The agreement is the country’s first step towards
implementing legislation that will mandate all Cameroon taxi
operators to have vehicle tracking units installed in their
vehicles.
“Ctrack shares our commitment of creating safer roads for all
and it shows through the quality of their technology and
analytics,” said Augustin Ngangoua, National President of the
Cameroon National Taxi Union. “This initiative will not only
improve the safety of drivers and passengers, but also other road
users and the public in general. Through Ctrack’s commitment, we
will engage in talks with the Transport Ministry to enforce the
installation of GPS tracking units into all taxis.”
“Ctrack is proud to have won this very competitive bid, which
helps solidify our position as a premier global telematics
provider,” said Cobus Grove, General Manager, Ctrack Global. “With
our advanced telematics offering and technical capability, we
managed to meet the client’s business expectations and overall
business objectives with driver and passenger safety at the heart
of the solution.”
The multi-year agreement will enable the government of Cameroon
to provide GPS vehicle tracking, safety and compliance solutions to
its more than 100,000 taxis currently operating on the country’s
roads.
