Wialon joins Fleet Forum to accelerate fleet digitalisation in humanitarian sector
Leading fleet management software platform Wialon has joined Fleet Forum, a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to cleaner, safer and more effective humanitarian transport in developing nations.
As a knowledge partner, Wialon will help Fleet Forum to accelerate fleet digitalisation in the humanitarian sector.
Fleet Forum runs global initiatives, such as ride and vehicle sharing projects for humanitarian organisations, development projects that help reduce the sector’s environmental impact, training and consultancy for fleet management improvement, road safety programmes, as well as local knowledge hubs in Kenya, Lebanon and Nigeria.
The organisation counts some of the world’s most impactful humanitarian organisations amongst its members, including International Committee of the Red Cross, Médecins Sans Frontières, Save the Children and UNICEF.
In its new role as a knowledge partner, Wialon will offer pro-bono expertise and provide technology support to enhance Fleet Forum’s projects. Through this collaboration, Wialon aims to support Fleet Forum and its member organisations in optimising fleet performance and costs, enhancing vehicle and driver safety, improving driver behaviour, and reducing environmental impact.
Paul Jansen, executive director at Fleet Forum, said: “Fleet Forum’s strategic agenda – focused on professionalising fleet operations, improving road safety and promoting environmental responsibility – resonates strongly with Wialon’s core values. The organisation’s projects, including fleet management training programs and initiatives aimed at reducing carbon emissions, are crucial for creating safer and more sustainable fleet ecosystems. Wialon will support the community by sharing its expertise, hosting educational webinars and guiding members seeking advanced solutions to enhance fleet safety, promote eco-friendly operations and improve driving behaviour.”
Developed by Gurtam, a European software development company with over two decades of experience, Wialon offers fleet tracking, fuel management, video telematics and more — helping companies and organisations digitalise and streamline their fleet operations.
Wialon works with over 2,700 partner companies in over 160 countries, serving fleets across various industries. The platform connects over four million vehicles and processes over five billion data points daily.
Aliaksandr Kuushynau, head of Wialon at Gurtam, said: “Fleet Forum plays an incredibly important role in shaping responsible fleet practices in the not-for-profit sector, particularly in challenging environments. By helping humanitarian organisations around the world harness fleet digitalisation technology and use data to measure and improve their performance, we are helping them place social, financial, and environmental sustainability at the core of their fleet management strategy.”
