Heavy Vehicle Regulator Gains a Technical Edge With Mobility Service From Motorola Solutions
Australia’s industry regulator for heavy vehicles is deploying a new mobile application from Motorola Solutions to increase safety, situational awareness and productivity for its workers. The National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) administers a single set of laws for all heavy vehicles over 4.5 tonnes gross, enabling the sector to meet industry standards for safety, compliance and regulatory performance. The mobile application delivers vital information to NHVR’s safety and compliance officers while they are on the move. This includes heavy vehicle registration numbers, driver’s license details and other information from the regulator’s database. NHVR Director of Information and Technology Mark Radovic described the new solution as a game changer saying it would streamline, standardise and improve the way the organisation carries out on-road compliance nationally. The state-of-the-art mobile application also helps NHVR to meet a major goal of its Safety and Compliance Regulatory Platform program by integrating and centralising all key heavy vehicle operator information collected on-road, in the one place.
The holistic managed service will run for three years with the potential to extend to a total of seven years. The mobile application was implemented in partnership with NHVR by Gridstone, the application development firm that Motorola Solutions acquired in 2016.
