HERE, EROAD Expand Partnership To Deliver Smart Trucking Solutions In Oceania
BUSINESS KUALA LUMPUR, July 31 (Bernama) -- HERE Technologies, a global leader in digital mapping and location data, is expanding its collaboration with fleet management and telematics provider EROAD to power EROAD's first vehicle-aware navigation application for Oceania. The solution, available in Australia and New Zealand, is built on the HERE platform and leverages advanced routing services and truck-specific data to enhance driver safety, fleet efficiency, and regulatory compliance. HERE Technologies Senior Vice President and General Manager for Asia Pacific, Deon Newman in a statement said the collaboration aims to empower fleets with optimised routes, real-time insights, and critical alerts to help prevent incidents such as bridge strikes. Meanwhile, EROAD Chief Product Officer, Mark Davidson said the partnership represents a timely response to industry challenges in the Oceania transport and logistics sector and equips its customers with a solution that helps them navigate rising delivery demands, compliance complexity, and a critical driver shortage. This deepened partnership reflects both companies' shared commitment to delivering innovative transport solutions tailored to the needs of commercial vehicle and fleet operators globally. By combining HERE's location intelligence with EROAD's operational expertise, the partnership aims to improve delivery accuracy, simplify route planning, and elevate the day-to-day experience for both drivers and fleet managers. Developed using features from HERE WeGo Pro, the solution transforms centrally planned routes into real-time, turn-by-turn guidance. It supports truck-specific routing that factors in vehicle dimensions, cargo type, and road restrictions, along with real-time traffic updates, predictive estimated time arrivals (ETAs), and offline functionality in remote areas. The rollout of the navigation app comes as demand for connected vehicle technologies grows across Australia and New Zealand. A recent report by estimated the installed base of fleet management systems in the region will reach 2.7 million units by 2028. Meanwhile, Australia is grappling with a critical shortage of heavy vehicle drivers, with nearly 28,000 roles unfilled. A report by the International Road Transport Union revealed that nearly half of the country's truck drivers are aged over 55, with more than 21 per cent expected to retire by 2029.
