New ETA Transit and ViriCiti partnership elevates vehicle monitoring capabilities for diesel and electric fleets

ETA Transit has partnered with ViriCiti, boosting both companies' service offerings.  

Available as an option to its cloud-based ITS system SPOT™, the ViriCiti AVM platform integrates ETA’s administration software. The ViriCiti solution extends the availability of real-time situational awareness that is essential to modern transit operations. The solution works for next-generation electrical fleets and legacy diesel fleets, improving the health and reliability of the vehicles.  

“The partnership between ETA and ViriCiti is a compelling opportunity,” said CEO Nicole Castonguay. “The pairing of our SPOT™ ITS platform and ViriCiti’s fleet management system delivers a powerful one-two punch for transit operators who want to combine industry-leading transit data with real-time fleet health information.” 

“Our partnership with ETA solidifies our efforts of helping North American operators transition towards sustainable transportation. ViriCiti’s mixed-fleet telematics help transit agencies achieve a centralized, more efficient operation, reducing emissions and facilitating the move towards sustainable transportation,” said Trishan Peruma, head of Business Development and Sales North America, ViriCiti. 

The pairing of the ETA and ViriCiti solutions represent a step in unifying the transit technology market instead of having transit agencies source specific solutions from multiple vendors.  

This partnership aims to simplify that process and streamline the procurement, deployment and administration of two software suites into a single, easy-to-manage system.
