MatrixVtrack Nigeria Limited, the Nigerian partners to global vehicle tracking leaders Matrix SA, which is involved in the provision of a wide range of telematic solutions, is all set to unveil a new product to the Nigerian market called CrashAlert.
Mr. Don Okafor, managing director, disclosed this at an event organized by Private Media Mart Limited (PMM) in conjunction with the Nigeria Insurers Association (NIA) tagged ‘InsuranceTechExpo® 2008.’ He explained that the new CrashAlert offering is a product that calls for help when one can’t. While referring to it as a life-saving device, Mr. Okafor also stated that, in the case of any collision with the car where the unit is installed, the unit is triggered immediately and sends an alert, because its sensor is even more sensitive than that of the vehicle airbag.
The CrashAlert service, which is an added offering in the existing MatrixVtrack vehicle tracking and recovery system, also includes emergency medical response, medical repatriation, upgrade transfer and roadside assistance (Tow-in).
The severity of an accident triggers an alert immediately with the exact position of the vehicle pin-pointed and it is ideal for every vehicle especially during the coming festive period, he added.
The company’s tracking platform utilizes the GSM/GPRS network for earth moving vessels. They also provide turnkey solutions that enable clients gain complete overview and control of their remote assets, integrating software, data and services to provide greater value and drive insightful decisions for business organizations.
