New awards celebrate technology that makes transport cleaner, smarter and easier to use

- New awards recognising and rewarding technologies that improve transport

- Entries now open for all organisations, projects and innovations

- Awards ceremony on 1 November at London’s Royal Lancaster Hotel

03 May 2019: The TRANStech awards, organised by Landor LINKS, reward the technology that is improving transport.

Whether it is better information, more convenient ways to book and pay for services. Smart ways to manage vehicles and infrastructure or more systematic change across cities and rural areas, the Awards will reward those making these shifts successfully – in a way that meets people’s needs, environmental goals and positive social outcomes.

Entries are invited from across the transport technology sector – from start-ups to public transport operators, transport authorities to data platforms, automotive companies to bike share operators. We want to hear from those managing infrastructure from roads to parking; innovators optimising existing services – from selling spaces on coaches, getting people to share lifts or hire out their under-utilised vehicles; or companies creating new services enabled by dynamic routing algorithms, electric fleet or connected and autonomous vehicles.

These awards are for anyone using technology to improve the transport experience – whether providing a new customer interface (like planning, booking and paying for transport) or managing the data and technology backbone that enables those services.

We’re also looking for providers and platforms that enable new business models like mobility on subscription, vehicle sharing and innovative last mile solutions – and for the organisations championing and providing open data to enable these new ways of working.

But it’s not just about the digital world – it’s also about the impact on the real world. Does this technology help improve air quality? Or enable people to access or use electric vehicles more easily, cheaply or efficiently?

Then there’s the fleet. Whether a fleet is made up of bikes or buses (or any other shape or size of vehicle) technology is improving the way that fleets are managed. We want to hear from organisations who think their customers’ experience and use of their fleet is enhanced by technology. We’re seeing new ways to manage where cars, buses, trains and bikes are so that there people need them, when they need them, with capacity and in great condition.

Lastly, the TRANStech awards are about system changes. We’re looking for areas, rural and urban, that are shifting the way they do things to enable people to travel efficiently, cheaply and sustainably by using technology.

Entries are now open – www.transtechawards.co.uk

Fleet mobility solutions to be celebrated by new TRANStech Awards

Posted: 24 April 2019 by TRANStech Awards

- First UK awards to recognise future fleet mobility initiatives

- Entries now open for fleets, carmakers and suppliers

- Awards ceremony on 1 November at London’s Royal Lancaster Hotel

Fleets offering Mobility as a Service (MaaS) solutions will be celebrated at the inaugural TRANStech Awards on 1 November at the Royal Lancaster Hotel in London.

The new awards, the first to address future mobility in the UK, will reward excellence and achievement in both established and emerging areas of mobility and transport.

With a rapidly growing number of fleets now offering staff integrated transport solutions, the TRANStech Awards will showcase the technology led initiatives delivering the most innovative MaaS solutions.

Fleets, carmakers and suppliers are being invited to submit entries for services promoting the improvement of air quality, e-mobility and last mile innovation.

A special Fleet Operator of the Year Award will honour the company currently setting the bar for its delivery of multi-modal transport solutions.

TRANStech Awards director Darryl Murdoch said: “The TRANStech Awards have been launched to recognise the imagination and innovation being demonstrated by those using technology to improve our transport system.

“Digital technology is enabling fleets to provide staff with smart, flexible and cost-effective transport solutions which improve mobility and are helping reduce the impact of transport on the environment.”

Fleets, car makers and suppliers can enter the awards by visiting the TRANStech Awards website at www.transtechawards.co.uk
