Bahamian tech start-up Mobile Garage Fleet Solutions aims to improve fleet management with telematics and A.I. Dashcam technologies. The company claims that these technologies can provide valuable data for improving driver safety, reducing operating costs, and ensuring regulatory compliance.
Mobile Garage Fleet Solutions (MGFS), a Bahamian tech start-up, is disrupting the way businesses manage their fleet of vehicles with the use of two emerging technologies: Telematics and Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) Dashcam. These technologies, which are channeled through its cloud-based platform, can provide companies with key data that can be used to improve driver safety, reduce operating costs, improve fleet management, and ensure regulatory compliance.
MGFS’s telematic devices go beyond basic tracking by monitoring vehicles’ movements and driver behavior such as speeding, hard braking, hard turns, impacts, diagnostic codes, and maintenance in real-time. In addition, A.I. Dashcam uses artificial intelligence to analyze video footage captured by cameras mounted in vehicles, capturing distracted driving behavior, cellular phone use, eating/drinking, possible fatigue, obstruction, collisions, and more. Fleet owners can then analyze this data to improve driver safety and fleet management.
By analyzing data from these technologies, businesses can identify areas where they can cut costs, such as reducing idle time, optimizing routes, and reducing fuel consumption, saving money, and reducing the company’s carbon footprint. MGFS’s software updates every 60 seconds, generating reports on fuel, idling, driving score, diagnostics, stops, trips, and maintenance costs among other variables.
Founder Byron McCartney noted that MGFS’s software is now used in more than four Caribbean countries by various industries, including government agencies, hotels, hospitals, waste management companies, insurance companies, transportation, and logistics companies. In less than six months of launch, the company has made a name for itself with its cloud-based platform that tracks vehicles in real-time. Businesses can optimize delivery schedules, improve customer service, and increase efficiency. Telematics can also be used to monitor vehicle maintenance needs, reducing breakdowns, and prolonging the lifespan of the fleet. These technologies can also help businesses comply with regulations by easily monitoring driver hours and ensuring compliance.
Overall, MGFS is a testament to how emerging technologies can revolutionize fleet management. The company’s approach to telematics and A.I. Dashcam is innovative and forward-thinking, offering businesses valuable data for optimizing their fleet operations, while also improving driver safety and regulatory compliance. MGFS’s success in the Caribbean is a clear indication of the demand for these technologies, and it’s only a matter of time before more businesses adopt them to stay ahead of the competition.
