Focus on Fleet Safety Standards

During the meeting, the importance of forming a Fleet Safety Association was discussed, which aims to be a collaborative platform for transportation companies, fleet managers, and related stakeholders. Through this association, it is expected to create higher safety standards, which apply to all transportation fleets in Indonesia.

IMI, known as an organization with a strategic role in developing safety and innovation in transportation, is leading this initiative through its Mobility Division. The association will work with transportation companies, technology providers, and government agencies to encourage the adoption of cutting-edge safety technologies and best practices in fleet management.

TransTRACK, as a leading provider of fleet and supply chain management solutions, presented the various safety technologies they have developed. Driver monitoring systems, driver behavior analysis, and real-time vehicle management are considered critical components in ensuring that every vehicle on the road operates safely.

Government Commitment to Transportation Safety

TransTRACK and the Ministry of Transportation (MoT), through its representatives, confirmed their commitment to support this initiative. The government recognizes the importance of collaboration between the public and private sectors in creating a safer transportation environment, which can start from the use of better safety tools and features. The Fleet Safety Association’s initiative is also in line with national goals to reduce traffic accident rates and ensure better safety standards.

Next Steps for MoT, IMI, KNKT, and TransTRACK Collaboration

With this collaboration in place, the next steps will focus on drafting fleet safety guidelines, developing relevant policies, and implementing safety technologies. A follow-up meeting will be held in the near future to finalize the strategy and implementation plan.

Stay tuned, as the Fleet Safety Association is poised to bring great impact to Indonesia’s transportation sector.
