Denver, August 15, 2023 — SambaSafety, the market leader in cloud-based driver risk management solutions, has announced an integration between Geotab and SambaSafety’s Risk Cloud, securely pulling telematics data into the Risk Cloud, delivering a comprehensive, seamless and flexible set of capabilities designed to help businesses and insurers navigate driving risk. The incorporation of these technologies provides valuable insights into driver behavior and gives businesses the tools they need to make more informed decisions and mitigate potential risk.
Geotab, a global leader in IoT and connected transportation, provides full-featured connected transportation solutions that help businesses better manage their drivers and vehicles by extracting accurate and actionable data insights from current and historical trip data.
“Geotab’s telematics hardware and software solutions deliver current behavioral events that complement our continuous MVR and CSA monitoring to create a complete risk profile. This allows our mutual customers to efficiently prioritize interventions and improve driver performance and safety.” said Rich Lacey, Chief Product Officer at SambaSafety.
SambaSafety’s comprehensive Risk Cloud centralizes and normalizes data from multiple sources to produce a complete picture of driver risk. By integrating connected vehicle data from Geotab, customers can better understand driver behavior to help effectively identify and coach drivers who may be at higher risk of crashes or violations. Once the risk is identified, SambaSafety’s targeted training solution allows managers to coach employees with recommended training, targeted to the specific behaviors, improving driver habits and retention.
“Synchronizing connected vehicle data from Geotab’s open API with SambaSafety’s driver risk management solutions will support companies in making quicker, more informed decisions on risk, and enhancing the safety and productivity of their fleet,” said Robin Kinsey, Senior Manager, Geotab Marketplace.
The integration is now available on the Geotab Marketplace. To learn more, visit https://marketplace.geotab.com/solutions/aggregated-telematics-insight/.
