Crystal Ball secures three deals for the future

Tracking services provider has secured three major deals totalling £250,000 for its for use in fleet vans and maintenance vehicles.

The deals are with Strathclyde Partnership for Transport, the regional transport body for the west of Scotland, and Greater Manchester-based Willow Park Housing Trust and Adactus Housing Group.

The Strathclyde deal also involves the fitting of Manchester-based Crystal Ball’s Driver ID system, which provides coded Dallas Keys for more than 100 employees and a dashboard reader so companies know who is driving a vehicle at all times.

The system ensures that companies have complete and accurate journey data against each driver and any non-assigned fleet vehicle. With Driver ID, reports can be run for each driver, monitoring their activity across multiple vehicles.

The Crystal Ball vehicle tracking system feeds back live information, recording speed, journey time, distance and precise location.

Employers can also monitor the information in real time via their computer screen and it can be accessed anytime and anywhere in the world.

Raj Singh, managing director of Crystal Ball, said: “Securing these deals with such significant clients is a testament to the quality and robustness of the range of products and services we offer.”

Strathclyde Partnership for Transport works with 11 local education authorities to provide the ‘biggest school run in Scotland’, carrying around 50,000 pupils each day and also specialises in concessionary travel.
