Sprint Telematics has chosen to use a software platform from Key Telematics for all of its customers. 

The agreement aims to capitalise on Key Telematics’ global market presence and experience in the fleet management market.

The partnership also further supports the growth in the UK of Sprint Telematics’ business and will play a major part in achieving their goal of doubling the number of units currently operational in the UK in the next fiscal year, it said.

Sprint Telematics managing director Leon Boshoff said: “We have tested many telematics platforms and Key is undoubtedly best of breed. We will now migrate all our customers to this outstanding platform.”

Sprint Telematics and its associate company Edge Telematics provide telematics and video telematics services in the UK, Ireland and across Africa.

Logistics companies, bus operators, LCV and HGV operators are some of the market sectors in which Sprint provide fleet and asset management expertise.

The Key Telematics platform ensures that Sprint Telematics customers can access vehicle-operating data from multiple devices, such as a mobile phone, a work computer or personal laptop.

Key Telematics’ SaaS platform delivers customisable dashboards, alert and reporting function, integrated with fuel card data, providing full control over fleet operations.

The API (Application Programming Interface) provides further flexibility on building custom features and integration with third-party solutions.

Sprint joins a growing list of public and private companies across 130 countries, choosing Key as a technology partner.

Killops concluded: “Key is a technology company and our skilled development team means we are always at the cutting edge of what is available. This is evidenced by features such as integrating directly with motor vehicle manufacturers (OEM) or fuel card company integrations coupled with a powerful analytics engine.”
