Transportation technology company Fleetworthy has made another acquisition, rounding out its solutions to cover all aspects of tolling, weigh station bypass, compliance, safety, and regional parking and traffic violations for commercial fleets of all sizes.
The company has added to its portfolio Empire Commercial Services LP, a provider of commercial vehicle parking violation management and resolution in New York City.
Empire’s President and CEO Joseph Farma said this deal will give the company’s existing customers access to more fleet management solutions that can help mitigate other challenges they face when operating in the New York metro area.
Fleetworthy President and Chief Strategy Officer Mike Precia said Empire’s platform complements Fleetworthy’s suite of fleet management technology, and Fleetworthy aims to expand Empire’s reach.
“The team at Empire Commercial Services has done a tremendous job building a system that helps its customers more efficiently manage violations they receive in NYC and the surrounding area,” said Precia. “This acquisition aligns with our mission to deliver our customers a full technology suite that can help fleets manage their businesses more efficiently. We see an opportunity to scale the offerings that Empire provides beyond New York and to other high-density urban areas, and we look forward to collaborating with the Empire team to make that happen.”
Empire will continue to operate under its current brand and retain its scope of business as a Fleetworthy product offering.
Fleetworthy, which helps fleets manage tolls, safety and compliance, recently did the same with Drivewyze, a weigh station bypass and in-cab driver safety alert system.
Empire has processed and defended more than 4 million NYC parking violations, saving commercial fleets more than $200 million in fines by dismissals, since its founding in 1992.
The company’s Summons Management And Resolution Tracking (S.M.A.R.T) System makes it easy for fleets to manage and reconcile parking fines that occur in NYC. It has expanded its technology offerings in recent years to assist fleets with commercial permits and vehicle renewals and manage traffic violations such as speeding tickets, moving violations and more in the New York metro area.
