IAG is purchasing fleet efficiency and safe driver coaching business, CCS Innovation in Logistics (CCS) to add more value to its Fleet Fit proposition for commercial fleet customers.
Corinne Watson established CCS in 2005, providing a New Zealand-wide proposition from its Christchurch and Morrinsville offices.
CCS employs six people and is a New Zealand leader in data-driven fleet management says IAG.
It’s been a partner of NZI/Lumley for 11 years as a supplier of safe driver training and NZI/Lumley’s ‘Drive Smart’ proposition to its heavy-motor customer base.
NZI executive general manager Travis Atkinson says CCS will remain a stand-alone entity, with Corinne Watson as its general manager, to maintain the independence of advice and agility provided by the business unit.
“CCS ’s track record of innovation and its proven ability to enhance fleet safety and efficiency will continue developing separately but as part of our determination to offer value and support to our customers,” says Atkinson.
“CCS’s approach to leveraging truck telematics for safe driver coaching aligns with our purpose and this, along with it’s strengths in benchmarking and reporting across fleets, suggests expanding opportunities that we look forward to unlocking for a wider base of customers,” he says.
