Fleet management is entering a new era, where data is transformed into a critical tool for strategic leadership, operational excellence, and sustainable growth.
Within the framework of the 19th Supply Chain & Logistics EXPO, Michalis Christodoulides, CEO of Frotcom Cyprus, will present the topic 'The Future of Telematics: From Vehicle Data to Strategic Advantage' outlining how modern telematics platforms are evolving into comprehensive decision-support systems.
The presentation is expected to be of particular interest, as it focuses on the transition from traditional tracking tools to advanced fleet management ecosystems that leverage real-time data to optimise performance and reduce costs. Special emphasis will be placed on predictive vehicle maintenance, through the analysis of diagnostic data (DTCs) from both vehicles and tachographs, enabling businesses to prevent failures and minimise unplanned downtime.
At the same time, the presentation highlights the importance of automatic and remote tachograph data downloads, as well as the analysis of driver data and mass storage, as essential tools for compliance, transparency, and driver performance monitoring.
A key part of the discussion will focus on the convergence of telematics and artificial intelligence, with applications such as video telematics, TPMS systems, and advanced analytics through Power BI–based dashboards. Through unified data visualizations, management teams gain a clear and holistic view of fleet operations—ranging from safety and fuel consumption to driver behavior and regulatory compliance.
The use of API integrations and continuous software enhancements enables seamless connectivity between telematics platforms and ERP, HR, and logistics systems, transforming fleet data into a core pillar of overall business planning.
Safety, Compliance, and Human Capital
Beyond technology, the presentation underscores the role of data in improving road safety, strengthening regulatory compliance, and fostering a more engaged and responsible workforce culture. Automated reporting, transparency, and the use of objective data build trust between management and drivers, contributing to more efficient and sustainable operating models.
The Person Behind the Technology
Michalis Christodoulides is one of the most recognized figures in logistics technology and telecommunications in Cyprus. Fifteen years ago, he introduced the Frotcom fleet management system to the Cypriot market, gradually developing a one-stop shop for logistics technology solutions, including Routyn dynamic routing, Cryotos asset management, and VDO tachographs.
With a long-standing track record in innovation, he was a pioneer in Cyprus in technologies such as Computer-to-Fax, Computer-to-Telex, Premium Lines, and Inmarsat, while also expanding his activities into markets such as the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, and Greece. In parallel, he is active as a digital transformation consultant and a trainer in eco-driving seminars, combining technology with sustainability and education.
The 19th Supply Chain & Logistics EXPO returns dynamically on February 5 at the Pavilion Hall in Nicosia, under the central theme “Digital Transformation, Sustainable Solutions, and Resilience: The Future of Logistics in Cyprus.” The event will showcase ideas, technologies, and trends that are shaping the new era of the logistics sector. The exhibition serves as a key reference point for all professionals involved in the supply chain, transportation, distribution, warehousing, and commerce.
This year’s EXPO will host businesses, decision-makers, technology providers, transport companies, and industrial suppliers, offering a dynamic environment where knowledge, experience, and innovation come together.
