China's emTek, Now an AlertDriving Channel Partner, to Target Fleet Risk in the Asia Pacific Oil & Gas Industry


AlertDriving, the global leader in driver risk management, today announced a strategic new partnership that will significantly expand its solutions to the Asia Pacific Oil and Gas Industry. From CNOOC, Petrochina to Shell, dozens of oil & gas companies across China already rely on emTek for its consultancy services in emergency crisis management and occupational risk. Now, as a Advantage Channel Partner (News - Alert), emTek can apply fully integrated, enterprise-wide risk benchmarking-all from AlertDriving's single-source, LMS-ready platform- to identify, mitigate and monitor companies' driver risk exposures.

Designed to standardize learning outcomes across 70 countries, FleetDefenseSM delivers personalized, assessment-based training in over 100 languages with unparalleled scalability.

Amid falling market confidence, oil & gas companies are looking to stabilize margins by controlling costs in the supply chain. But firms can't close all potential risk exposures-ultimately to ensure zero reportable accidents-without monitoring safety. EmTek closes the safety gap in high-risk energy sectors by auditing its customers' emergency response capabilities for weaknesses. Worldwide benchmarks are crucial to gauge and monitor the integration of multiple resources in a crisis. Emergency response plans can unravel without standardized, metrics- driven data to coordinate efforts among first responders, BU management and global command. EmTek changes that.

The Beijing-based company conducts site inspections, risk analyses, event impact evaluations and even crisis management drills all designed to pinpoint weaknesses life span-wide, from oil exploration to upstream distribution. Through emTek's Incident Command System (ICS), customers even receive real-time, centralized risk reporting and software designed to ensure decision-makers respond effectively in an emergency. With FleetDefenseSM, fleets in the oil & gas sector likewise won't have to wait for accidets to capture driver risk.



As an ADvantage Channel Partner, emTek can now offer companies a new baseline standard- besides crashes, to identify, analyze and manage their driver risk exposures.

"Rather than waiting-and often paying-for driver mistakes, it's important that fleets identify high-risk driving behaviours by screening employee attitudes," explained Rob Martin, Vice President of Sales at AlertDriving.


"FleetDefenseSM trains the way the brain learns best, through frequent testing mapped to users' risk levels and localized for cultural relevance-so fleets can manage and measure outcomes anywhere. Working with emTek, China's oil & gas businesses will get accurate, cost-saving mitigation insights which in minutes can compare driver risk exposures on a global, country or business-unit basis."

Jack Li, Managing Director of emTek, echoed Mr. Martin's sentiments during the signing of the MOU. " We are very excited to become the Certified Channel Partner of AlertDriving in China," Mr. Li said, calling it a "a nice expansion" of the firm's service portfolio.

"We are confident the cooperation will add great value to our clients here in China," Mr Li added.

The partnership comes at the cusp what promises to be unprecedented China-outward foreign direct investment. China is expected to invest over $US 100 billion annually worldwide beginning from 2015, with much of the capital flowing to energy and infrastructure.

In this environment, scalable driver risk data will be pivotal to accommodate what Mr. Li forecasts as "a massive, spillover demand for improved road transportation safety management (RTMS) among every giant State-Owned Company (SOE) with overseas operations."
