Teaming up: CMAC and Taxi.EU

Ground transportation management company CMAC has partnered with Taxi.EU, Europe´s largest taxi network and part of FMS/Austrosoft Group, a dispatch and fleet management systems provider.

An API integration between CMAC Group’s booking platform and FMS/Austrosoft’s fleet management system will allow CMAC Group to leverage FMS/Austrosoft’s network of 165 transport providers and 65,000 vehicles. This will significantly enhance its offering in nine European countries, including Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Belgium, according to CMAC.

Customers including travel management companies will benefit from a broader reach, greater flexibility and increased transport options across key European regions, the firm adds. At the same time, FMS/Austrosoft’s transport partners will gain new booking opportunities through CMAC’s extensive customer base.

Peter Slater, chief executive of CMAC, said the partnership with FMS/Austrosoft and Taxi.EU is “a major milestone” in CMAC's expansion strategy across Europe. “This integration will allow us to deliver an even higher level of service to our customers, with seamless, reliable transport solutions in several key new markets,” he said.

All transport partners are vetted by Austrosoft and CMAC and bookings include real-time tracking.
