It's every driver's worst nightmare - being caught in a hijack situation where one's life is on the line. South Africa is notorious for its high crime levels, which is why partnering with Ctrack adds to improved peace of mind on the road.
"Customers have access to a comprehensive vehicle tracking and recovery system with Ctrack," says executive manager of Capital Air Security Operations, Ferdi Gobey. "Capital Air operates the largest fleet of helicopters in South Africa, backed by a strong 20-year history of recovery operations. Our staff is highly trained and competent to handle any emergency situation encountered by our clients."
Joining hands over six years ago, Ctrack and Capital Air have since forged a strong partnership, resulting in enhanced product delivery. Due to the comprehensive coverage offered by Ctrack's tracking systems, commercial vehicles can be tracked throughout South Africa, in addition to cross border monitoring. "We were approached by Ctrack because they required a specialist recovery service, which was needed to safeguard their customers. Capital Air is able to provide an all-in-one service, as we have our own helicopters and boast highly trained ground personnel who are equipped with medical and military training. All Ctrack clients have access to full cross-border recoveries, as our coverage reaches across the continent up to Tanzania," adds a passionate Gobey.
This is great news for commercial transport operators, as the comprehensive Ctrack product has positive impacts for truck drivers, fleet managers and transport owners alike. Therefore, the Ctrack system is not just a good vehicle management system - it also offers a superb all-round recovery system. All of Ctrack products are ISO 9001:2000 certified and have insurance industry (SAIA) approval.
"We are privileged to enjoy such a strong relationship with our recovery company. Thanks to their ongoing service excellence and phenomenal recovery records, we know that we made the right choice," says CEO of Ctrack Holdings, Nick Vlok.
From humble beginnings, consisting of a zozo hut and a single helicopter, Capital Air has grown in size and experience. "Our organisation now employs approximately 250 people, and has since branched into new markets that have enhanced our original services. Based at Rand Airport, Capital Air, Capital Crisis Centre and Capital Air Security Operations function as one to provide a complete, professional and effective in-house service," says Gobey.
"We are proud to state that Capital Air has never lost a vehicle when the tracking system has been in working condition. Thanks to strong partnerships with police, we can also handle multiple recoveries per day". When asked whether all the negativity and increasing levels of violence place a damper on recovery efforts, this is his encouraging response: "You can't allow the bad days to get to you - all you can do is think of the next person you can save, as well as retrieving the valuable assets of the customers - we are in a privileged position to make a positive difference to the general public."
