Sofico customers have been updated on the latest technical innovations and company partnerships at the firm’s annual Customer Forum.

Sofico managing director, Gémar Hompes.

Held this week in Ghent, Belgium, the event saw the company update on how a new architecture for Sofico’s mainstream Miles platform will help customers.

The 65 delegates, representing some 25 major Miles’ customers, were also introduced to partners with whom Sofico has established strategic relationships to provide new services.

This year these included integrated telematics with TomTom Telematics, a new native mobile capability, Miles Mobile, with digital product designer, In the Pocket, and advanced business intelligence applications and analytics with AE – Architects for Business and ICT.

Gémar Hompes, Sofico managing director, said: “Miles is the world’s leading hybrid fleet and retail contract management system but the marketplace is changing so rapidly that we continually need to run to stand still.

“With the addition of new features such as Miles Mobile, integrated telematics services and new advanced business intelligence analytics, we will be able to provide our customers with the essential tools that they require to stay one step ahead in the rapidly evolving business world.”
