RSSUK-headquartered 4495 GreenRoad which specialises in in driver performance and safety management, has won its first contract in mainland Europe. Securitas Mobile Belgium will be deploying the company’s system across 120 company cars to reduce accidents, cut insurance costs and lower fuel consumption.

GreenRoad will help both Securitas Mobile company executives and its mobile security workforce understand their driving behaviour in order to reduce risk through instant feedback in the cars and in-depth online analysis and recommendations.

According to Kristof Philips, the Securitas Mobile project manager, the company wants to understand what happens when each of its 320 drivers leave the depot. “But with such a large fleet it is impractical except using GreenRoad. With GreenRoad it is as if we are there in the passenger seat with each driver sensing every risky manoeuvre and understanding how to improve driving performance.

Securitas Mobile in Belgium serves approximately 21,000 sites from 25 depots. This decentralised approach ensures it is close to the customer. It provides a range of services including key-holding and alarm response, mobile patrols, a locks and unlocks service for commercial premises and lone worker protection/escort services.  Its Mobile Patrol Service provides a complete security solution ensuring stability and continuity of business. Securitas Mobile guards perform regular external and/or internal mobile patrols, and opening and closing premises, as well as attending to alarm activations.
