NOVI, Mich., April 26, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Danlaw, Inc.:  ALD Automotive has signed a preferred partnership agreement with Danlaw, a global leader in connected car technology and automotive electronics, to benefit from its industry leading DataLogger line of OBD-II devices and Bitbrew cloud platform in support of ALD ProFleet. 

ALD ProFleet, a newly enhanced connected car solution, leveraging Vinli's cloud-connected car and data intelligence platform for smart car data integration and processing, provides fleet managers and drivers access to their real-time connected car data. ALD ProFleet helps facilitate overall fleet management efficiency, optimize fleet utilization, generate savings, improve driver experience and contribute to strategic decision making.
