Netradyne, a global leader in AI-powered fleet safety and performance solutions, announced a strategic partnership with SAAM Tourist Pvt. Ltd., a Bengaluru-based transport company specialising in intercity, tourist, and corporate travel services. As part of this collaboration, SAAM will integrate Netradyne’s vision-based Driver•I fleet safety platform across its intercity bus fleet.
This initiative is designed to raise safety standards and boost operational efficiency across SAAM’s long-distance operations. Renowned for its decades-long service and commitment to passenger safety, SAAM Tourist operates a network of intercity night sleeper coaches where driver alertness is critical.
The company has continually sought innovative ways to identify and mitigate risky driving practices across its routes. By leveraging Netradyne’s Driver•I platform, SAAM Tourist gains real-time, actionable visibility into driver performance. This enables the company to proactively address critical safety concerns such as speeding, distracted driving (including mobile phone use), and driver fatigue. With these insights, SAAM can deliver more effective driver coaching, strengthen accountability, and ultimately enhance passenger safety across its fleet.
For drivers, real-time in-cab guidance helps them stay focused and confident on the road. For fleet managers, detailed performance insights make it easier to reduce risk, streamline operations, and recognise positive driving behaviors. Together, these capabilities not only lower accidents and costs but also build a culture of accountability, recognition, and safety that benefits both drivers and passengers.
“SAAM Tourist has built a reputation over decades for providing safe, reliable travel experiences for its passengers. By embracing our AI-powered Driver•i technology, they’re taking that commitment to the next level—proactively preventing incidents before they happen and empowering their drivers to perform at their best. This partnership is about raising the bar for intercity transportation safety and setting new standards in transportation safety and operational excellence,” said Durgadutt Nedungadi, Sr. Vice President-EMEA and APAC at Netradyne.
