International communications enabler BICS announces its partnership with telematics software provider Gurtam to provide IoT asset monitoring and fleet management on a global scale.
The collaboration combines the strength of BICS’ global IoT network connectivity with Gurtam’s GPS tracking and IoT platform, Wialon, which is the largest transport monitoring platform on the market.
BICS connects IoT devices to more than 700 mobile operators in 200+ countries, enabling devices to roam seamlessly around the world and easily switch networks depending on quality and coverage needs. By combining this with Gurtam’s GPS monitoring platform, telematics resellers and GPS tracking service providers will be able to deliver flexible, reliable, and global connected services to customers looking to improve their business.
BICS and Gurtam’s IoT and connectivity solution is now being used by geolocation suppliers and resellers, such as Tazi360°, a West African company which specialises in fleet management. Through the collaboration, customers like Tazi360° benefit from employing the Wialon platform from Gurtam, combined with always-on connectivity from BICS.

By selecting BICS as our technology partner, we are able to enhance this flexibility and offer cellular connectivity to our users, meaning businesses using Wialon no longer have to rely solely on local connectivity providers.

It is vital that this need is met with a robust cellular connectivity offering, allowing assets to not only remain seamlessly connected while traversing borders, but also easily managed to meet their specific business needs.
