Solutions Offered by Verra Mobility

Toll Management

Verra Mobility’s comprehensive toll management approach addresses the intricate challenges faced by fleet managers across various operational scales. Their flagship products such as TollLink, TollGuard, and AutoKinex to represent a nuanced approach to managing toll-related complexities. TollLink emerges as a comprehensive solution for fleets requiring extensive national or regional toll coverage. By eliminating manual payment processes and reducing violation risks, the service provides fleet managers with a streamlined approach to toll management. The integrated Mira™ Insights ecosystem adds an additional layer of intelligence, enabling more sophisticated decision-making and cost management.

For organizations with intermittent toll road usage, TollGuard offers a strategic backup network. The service provides national video tolling coverage without requiring additional device installations. This flexible approach ensures that even occasionally used fleet vehicles remain compliant and avoid potential penalties. AutoKinex represents the most technologically advanced solution, leveraging vehicle telematics to verify toll charges in real-time. The system's advanced fraud detection and misuse monitoring capabilities provide fleets with unprecedented transparency and control. By automatically flagging discrepancies and filing disputes, AutoKinex transforms toll management from a administrative burden to a strategic operational function.

Connected Vehicle Services

The Connected Vehicle Services provided by Verra Mobility encompass the entire technology ecosystem for transportation that has been developed over a period of twenty years and continues to grow as mobility services evolve through advancements in technology and changes in consumer behaviors in respect to how they travel. The AutoKinex solution is used as the foundation of their Connected Vehicle Services program and is a cloud-based platform for automotive mobility payments that provides solutions for today's many diverse stakeholders including manufacturers, fleet managers, and tolling agencies. The AutoKinex platform can offer the ability for auto manufacturers to integrate embedded mobility services into their vehicles, by having a connection to the vehicle that they manufacture through the AutoKinex system, and therefore giving them control of the experience that their customers receive while connected to their vehicles.

Fleet Managers can utilize AutoKinex capabilities such as automated toll dispute resolution, fraud detection, and policy enforcement to streamline fleet management operations, improve fleet utilization rates, and provide fleet owners an opportunity to increase fleet revenues through the utilization of the AutoKinex system. In addition, rental car providers will utilize real-time toll functionality to provide a new revenue source as well. Toll Agencies will benefit from the AutoKinex System, as it will allow them to keep more revenue and eliminate much of the expense associated with the traditional method of collecting toll transactions, thus maximizing revenue for toll agencies.

Speed Enforcement

Verra Mobility’s sophisticated approach to traffic safety is based on the application of advanced technology, which provides a total package of safety solutions to provide a safe, secure environment for the community by changing driver behavior. The company uses the latest speed safety photo enforcement camera technology to document and identify speed violations in all environments (fixed, portable and mobile). The flexibility of these camera solutions allows each of these cameras to be deployed at multiple sites based on specific safety needs. These cameras can be effectively deployed in school zones, communities, work zones, and in high-traffic urban areas.

In addition to simply enforcing traffic laws, these camera systems create long-term changes in driver habits and behaviors. The presence of speed safety photo enforcement cameras increases the awareness of speed limit compliance and enhances overall public safety by alleviating officers from the need to conduct unsafe traffic stops. Public awareness programs are integrated into the technology and combined with the latest safety camera technology to create a comprehensive, integrated, and comprehensive approach to road safety. By using this data-driven model to develop their technology, government and law enforcement agencies can develop targeted and effective traffic management solutions.
