Commitment to Enhanced Levels of Safety is at
the Heart of Connected Solutions Partnership
M Group Services Plant & Fleet Solutions (MGSPFS) — the
fleet management operating business of leading essential
infrastructure services provider M Group Services — has been
working with Samsara, the pioneer of the Connected Operations™
Cloud, and UK-based fleet safety solutions provider, Motormax to
deliver the next generation of in-vehicle safety systems to protect
drivers, road users and citizens.
The industry-first collaboration combines Samsara's Connected
Operations Cloud with a 360-degree camera solution from Motormax —
warning drivers if a vehicle is being overloaded or if cranes,
booms or stabilizers are stowed incorrectly. In the event of any
issue, the driver is alerted immediately using visual and audible
warnings via Motormax's Safetymax technology. Office-based
transport managers are also notified immediately via automated
email alerts sent to an online portal.
As a result, the cutting-edge system now gives 360-degree
visibility in and around MGSPFS vehicles — either on the road or
operating on-site — for both drivers and transport managers. It
also includes Motomax’s side detection and left-turn alarm
solutions which enable MGSPFS to align to Fleet Operator
Recognition Scheme (FORS)* and Direct Vision Standard (DVS)**
regulations.
“At M Group Services Plant & Fleet Solutions, our key safety
message is that nothing is so important that we cannot take the
time to do it safely. Our job is to keep the number of road traffic
incidents to an absolute minimum because lives and jobs are at
stake if we don’t. That’s why we turned to Samsara and Motormax,"
said Tony Draper, Director of Safety, Health, Environment and
Quality (SHEQ) at M Group Services Plant & Fleet Solutions.
This industry collaboration puts safety at the center and is
just one of the initiatives between MGSPFS and Samsara to improve
fleet safety across more than 8,000 vehicles across its business.
Samsara and Motormax have a successful history of working together
since 2020 when Samsara was selected to help MGSPFS address one of
its core values: putting people's health, well-being and safety
first.
As a result, MGSPFS installed a Samsara video-based safety
technology solution across its fleet — including dual-facing
artificial intelligence (AI) dash cameras — that formed the
foundation of a long-term safety programme for the business.
"Our ongoing relationship with an industry powerhouse like MGFPS
shows just what can be achieved when you combine innovation,
culture change with a single technology platform. Our platform, the
collaboration with Motormax and MGSPFS’ unswerving commitment to
safety with connected smart solutions that can make the world a
safer place," said Philip van der Wilt, SVP EMEA, at Samsara.
"By harnessing vehicle telematics and 360-degree vehicle cameras
and feeding them into Samsara's cloud platform, we have taken fleet
safety to a whole new level. This solution is about using
technology for good. It's about using technology to make our roads
and vehicles safer. It’s about a commitment we all have to look out
for one another," he said.

NOTES TO EDITORS
* FORS
The Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme (FORS) is a UK-based
voluntary accreditation scheme for fleet operators. The aim is to
raise the level of quality within fleet operations and the FORS
community to demonstrate an exemplary level of best practice in
safety, efficiency and environmental protection. FORS is a
voluntary accreditation scheme that is an effective way to
demonstrate that the organization is a high-performing operator who
goes well above the bare legal safety requirements.
** DVS
The Direct Vision Standard (DVS) for heavy goods vehicles (HGVs)
is a vision safety standard for all vehicles over 12 tonnes. It is
based on a Vision Star rating supplied by the manufacturer of the
vehicle and indicates how much a driver can see directly from their
HGV cab in relation to other road users. It is currently enforced
in London (inside the M25) and is run by Transport for London
(TfL). Fines for non-compliant vehicles entering the DVS zone are
£550 per day, with vehicle registrations checked automatically
using automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) technology. The
initiative is expected to be rolled out to other cities and regions
in the next couple of years.
