Northgate Flexible Renting partners with TomTom to offer new fleet management service in Spain


AMSTERDAM --(Business Wire)--

TomTom (News - Alert) Telematics will power a new fleet management service in Spain for leasing company, Northgate Flexible Renting to help its customers cut fleet running costs.

The new service, NorthgateData powered by TomTom, will use TomTom Telematics' track and trace technology. The service will enable firms to boost productivity, cut fuel and maintenance costs, and respond faster to customers by giving them quick access to vehicle data.

"By partnering with TomTom, the market leader in fleet management systems, we can now offer our customers added value by reducing the total cost of fleet ownership," said Fernando Cogollos, Managing Director Northgate Flexible Renting.

Northgate's lease customers will now be able to locate their vehicles in real-time, assign the nearest vehicles for jobs, and access mileage and historic vehicle-usage reports. This will help them plan better routes and optimise drivers' working time.

"This partnership extends our market reach helping more businesses than ever before benefit from TomTom's leading fleet management solutions." added Thomas Schmidt, Managing Director TomTom Telematics.
