Powerfleet, Inc, a global provider of AIoT-based software-as-a-service solutions for mobile asset management, has secured a major public sector contract to deliver integrated video intelligence and real-time fleet visibility solutions for South African government departments. The agreement covers a fleet of more than 100,000 vehicles, marking one of the largest deployments in the company’s history.
The multi-year contract is expected to generate significant recurring revenue over a minimum period of five years, following a phased rollout.
