Wejo Group, a global leader in Smart Mobility for Good cloud and software solutions, for connected, electric and autonomous vehicle data, has announced an expanded collaboration with Mercedes-Benz Connectivity Services GmbH.
The collaboration will enable Wejo to provide personalised connected vehicle data services for participating cloud-connected fleet vehicles in the EU.
The data Wejo receives will be derived from participating Mercedes-Benz fleet vehicles and processed through Wejo’s ADEPT platform. This data will enable fleet management service (FMS) companies and telematics service providers (TSPs) to utilise data directly from embedded OEM hardware to support fleet services without aftermarket hardware.
Wejo’s collaboration and integration with Mercedes-Benz Connectivity Services is an important milestone in Wejo’s entrance into the fleet management market – anticipated at US$38 billion by 2024.
Wejo is positioned to bring multi-OEM fleet data from a single source to FMS companies and TSPs whose customers primarily have mixed OEM fleets.
Additionally, providing direct OEM data without aftermarket hardware gives access to richer data sets, reducing fleet downtime by eliminating hardware installs and the necessity for SIM management.
“With Mercedes-Benz Connectivity Services, we can deliver TSPs and FMS companies more data-driven, enhanced fleet management insights for their fleet customers and help improve safety and drive efficiencies on the roadways,” said Benoit Joly, Chief Commercial Officer at Wejo.
