Press Release
Leading fleet & insurance telematics provider Scope Technology has announced an innovative new deal with Mexico’s A3tek, to serve Telcel, Mexico’s largest wireless telecommunications provider with a three-year agreement that covers the domestic market in Mexico
The partnership is focused on Telcel’s fleet management services, which allows customers (fleet providers) access to Telcel’s wireless, real-time data network, which services over 90% of Mexico’s population. This technology provides fleet providers with vehicle monitoring, reporting and analysis tools, which allows them to measure vehicle usage and risk.
Under the partnership with A3tek, Telcel has implemented Scope Technology’s patented telematics platform, which enables fleet providers to produce more accurate vehicle monitoring, which includes fuel consumption, driver behaviour and distance / speed travelled, as well as providing drivers with a greater understanding of vehicle risk management, which promotes safer driving and accident reduction. The technology also includes a state-of-the-art response system, in the event of an emergency.
The deal aims to eliminate barriers to entry for fleet providers looking to adopt a telematics platform, and will make the solution more affordable. The partnership will help Telcel become a leading player within the Fleet Management market. Working alongside Scope Technology will also allow Telcel to strengthen its existing vehicle management system with industry-leading technology, and in turn increase revenue for the wider business.

In addition, by increasing their foot print into the Latin American market, Scope have already outlined plans to expand the partnership into surrounding countries, being Colombia the first joint territory after Mexico with Claro. A3tek will provide on the ground support from a dedicated 24/7 customer response team. In addition, A3tek will provide installation services across the country, as well as pre-sales consulting for potential customers training for end-users and Stolen Vehicle Recovery services.
