Microlise is among only a handful of players in the Transport Management Systems space that offer a one stop solution and service capability. Its investment in research and development needs to be underpinned by a robust, global connectivity platform, enabling the reliable transmission of data from vehicles to customers.

In-car Cleverness provides vehicle telemetry services for fleet management, car rental companies and prestige Dealership Groups. It delivers an innovative ‘end to end’ solution that enables these companies to enhance customer engagement and improve profitability by continually analyzing data from the car. This data can then provide a range of different solutions depending on the customers’ needs. For instance, In-car Cleverness can offer insights into a person’s driving habits and this information can be used to help manage fuel consumption and lower the impact of wear and tear. Alternatively, it can send an alert as soon as a person is involved in a crash. It can also be used to rapidly send data to rental operators or other commercial fleets following a crash, enabling the pinpointing of probable cause and extent of any damage. The company aims to offer its customers, which are made up of businesses in the UK, Ireland, and the rest of Europe, a reliable solution that provides seamless feedback, full visibility and consistent coverage, no matter where in the world the cars are being driven. Telematics has evolved. In-car Cleverness realizes that the focus is now on understanding what the car can tell you. It has pushed beyond simple tracking and fuel consumption data offered by most telematics providers, and can accurately, cost-effectively and remotely extract and present data from the engine management systems of a vehicle in an intuitive format. It can then process and analyze that data to deliver tangible operational and, more importantly, financial benefits to its customers. In-car Cleverness’ solutions continue to expand around the world, demanding a flexible and reliable data network solution for customers, wherever they might be, and whatever systems they might use. It requires a reliable global mobile network that provides consistent connectivity worldwide, without the burden of costly roaming charges.

Oil and gas producers face serious consequences if a downhole safety valve fails. In many cases, both company policy and government regulations require the well to be shut in for safety and environmental reasons. Some intervention-based tools allow the well to return to production, but unfortunately these tool designs, often decades old, are fraught with technical challenges, which can diminish the total production potential of the compromised well and the range of the well’s functionality.Tendeka, a provider of completions technology to the oil industry, developed an innovative smart valve that relays information bi-directionally from the downhole to the surface and can also be controlled wirelessly from the surface. The valve transmits regular wireless signals to the surface, which convey important information about downhole conditions and well operations. The valve allows wells to be returned to production during testing, while also providing the required downhole closure capability, should it become necessary to shut in the well. With this deployment of Electronic Ambient Valve (EAV) and Edge Data Storage (EDS) technology, Tendeka wanted to prove that continuous monitoring of the valve function could be conducted by both the operator and Tendeka personnel in headquarters.
