SmartDrive Systems Relocates San Diego Headquarters to Accommodate Growth
Innovator in Video Analytics and Driver Safety Moves to 25,000-Square-Foot Sorrento Valley Facility
SAN DIEGO, Sept. 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- SmartDrive Systems, a leader in driving performance solutions that reduce collisions and improve fuel efficiency, today announced the relocation of its corporate headquarters to 9450 Carroll Park Drive in San Diego's Sorrento Valley neighborhood. The 25,000-square-foot facility offers a 35 percent increase in space, supporting the company's continued growth, and housing cross-functional teams, including executive leadership, operations, marketing and sales divisions, and the previously-offsite warehouse, which processes inventory and handles customer deliveries and customer on-boarding.
"Our business has grown significantly over the past three years and the additional space is a key component for ongoing expansion," said Steve Mitgang, CEO of SmartDrive. "We are thrilled to now have all of our local teams under the same roof, and be in an upgraded facility that enables collaboration and helps us best serve our customers."
SmartDrive delivers a video-based safety program that is focused on identifying unsafe driving and preventing it from happening in the future. SmartDrive's open platform identifies driving risk, captures video, vehicle, audio and driving data and automatically offloads that video for review by driving experts. The incident is then scored for risk and prioritized for follow-on coaching, providing a clear picture of what happened, and enabling fleet managers to focus their discussion on the areas that matter most to the business. Customers who use SmartDrive see up to 70 percent reduction in collision frequency and costs in the first year.
In addition to supporting ongoing growth, the new office space has enabled the company to launch a bring-your-dog-to-work initiative and other cultural enhancements for its employees.
Headquartered in San Diego, Calif., SmartDrive has offices in the U.K., Australia, New Zealand, India, Ukraine, and China, and employs more than 400 people worldwide. The company serves a variety of industries, from retail and wholesale, to food distribution, for-hire freight, oil & gas, construction, transit and armored car. SmartDrive is venture funded and has been listed as a "Top Ranked Venture Backed Company" by the The Wall Street Journal. Since its launch, the company has amassed the world's largest and fastest growing database of risky driving events—over 80 million and counting.
