Allianz Awards Trakm8 Telematics Contracts
Trakm8, the AIM-listed telematics and data provider to the global market place, is pleased to announce it has been awarded two initial contracts by Allianz, the global insurance company, to supply devices with uniquely developed software to Allianz's Global Telematics business.
The initial supply contract comes with a launch order of 5,000 devices to start the pipe filling for Allianz Insurance telematics in China.
Trakm8 will provide the latest generation 5 T10 Micro self-fit telematics device, which initially will be manufactured in the Group's UK manufacturing facility. It is anticipated that manufacturing in Asia will take place as the volumes increase.
Trakm8, under a separate contract, will also develop specific software to meet the requirements of Allianz.
John Watkins, Executive Chairman of Trakm8 commented:
"We are delighted to add Allianz as a customer for Trakm8's insurance telematics solutions. We have been providing telematics to insurance companies for just over two years and Allianz is the first major customer for our next generation T10 Micro product. These contracts provide additional visibility for our expectations for the current financial year and beyond."
