Quartix, one of the UK’s leading vehicle fleet tracking system manufacturers and installers, has just announced an impressive 71 per cent growth in sales during 2004 with installations of the Quartix system increasing by 86 per cent.

Nearly 600 UK businesses now use Quartix’s real-time vehicle tracking technology to significantly lower vehicle operating costs (ranging from fuel savings, reduced overtime and maintenance); faster and more responsive delivery times; better vehicle security; as well as helping employers fulfil a wide range of Duty of Care responsibilities.

The company, which has offices in Newtown and Cambridge, has also recently unveiled an innovative partnership with Arriva Vehicle Rental. TrackTech, a highly advanced but easy-to-use vehicle tracking system powered by Quartix technology, is now being installed in Arriva’s 12,000 cars and light commercial vehicles throughout 38 locations across the UK.

“The major advance in both installations and sales is clearly positive and we now support customers in nearly every vertical business sector” commented Quartix director Andy Kirk. “However, what we’re particularly encouraged by are the extremely high retention rates achieved amongst customers leasing the Quartix system; it strongly suggests we’re offering relevant solutions and delivering tangible commercial benefits.”

A growing awareness of the wider advantages of using vehicle tracking technology amongst key fleet decision-makers appears to be resulting in expansion in the tracking systems market according to Kirk:

“The commercial and security benefits of using vehicle tracking systems are now well established and prospective customers are extremely well informed. However, more and more businesses want to take even more responsibility for their employees’ safety and well-being when they get behind the wheel and they are using Quartix’s technology to achieve this goal.”
