Case Study: Kairos achieves reliable real-time school bus tracking and cost-efficient fleet management with EMnify

Providing Reliable, Realtime Information to Quickly and Easily Track School Buses

Kairos, a French company founded by school bus operators to cut costs, needed a low‑cost, easy‑to‑use fleet management solution that provided real‑time bus tracking, effortless driver wage management, and flexibility for multi‑operator, cross‑border services. Existing fleet systems were too expensive or complex, so Kairos partnered with EMnify to deliver reliable cellular connectivity and an IoT platform tailored to those needs.

EMnify supplied SIMs, a Cellular IoT Platform and a REST API that automatically selects the best network, enables cross‑border coverage, and automates SIM provisioning and connectivity management. As a result, Kairos gained real‑time visibility across its fleet, automated payroll from tracking data, reduced manual effort and costs, and scaled quickly — now deployed with over 1,000 devices (and growing) across multiple operators — demonstrating measurable time and cost savings thanks to EMnify.
