Q&A with Geoff Jamieson, Managing Director of ORCODA
Q1: What factors have contributed to ORCODA's remarkable performance over the past three years, leading to its recognition on the AFR Fast 100 list?
A1: ORCODA's inclusion in the AFR Fast 100 is a testament to our outstanding performance, driven by organic growth in recurring revenues with major contract wins, strategic partnerships with channel partners such as Teletrac Navman, and the successful acquisitions and integrations of The Betta Group in 2020 and Future Fleet in 2023 (with contribution to commence from 1 July 2023).
Q2: How has the company's journey unfolded, and what key factors have propelled it to its current position?
A2: Leveraging our many years of experience in optimising transport operations, ORCODA has built on that experience and achieved continued growth and efficiency for our customers. In the post-COVID market, a robust momentum toward digital transformation has emerged, and ORCODA's commitment to innovation and adaptability has been pivotal to our sustained success. Our vision is to lead in developing the connected Smart Cities of the future.
Q3: ORCODA has capitalised on the post-COVID digital transformation surge. Do you foresee this trend continuing through 2024?
