Introduction – Current
Challenges Car owners DONOT own their Car info...
No details about the spent money at any
given time
Dealer records are not accessible for
personal use like,
◦ assessing car real value
◦ negotiating insurance premiums
◦ disposing the car…one’s prized & precious
asset!
No auto calendar information to advise Car
owner about the renewals of insurance,
pollution control certificate, road tax (for
commercial) etc.,
No information about the driver’s details,
tagging to car…
…Current Challenges
◦ Cab service for IT/ITES/BFS employees is provided
through outsourced vehicles
◦ Four layers of service support from “Client to FMS to
Aggregator to Drivers” complicate the surveillance at
bottom layer…impacting drivers & their
compliance/regulatory norms
◦ Fleets in multiples of hundreds will always make the fleet
management difficult with out technology
◦ Traffic violation information do not reach transport admin
immediately
◦ Regulatory norms like insurances, road taxes, pollution
control certificates, driver license, driver person info...
Etc., is difficult to track at the time of emergency
