Case Study: Wannon Water strengthens fleet safety and lone worker protection with Smartrak

Wannon Water strengthens fleet safety culture with Smartrak over 10+ years

Wannon Water, a utility company servicing regional Victoria, Australia, faced the challenge of protecting its lone workers operating across a large and remote geographical area with unreliable mobile coverage. They needed to improve awareness of serious vehicle incidents and support faster emergency response for their dispersed fleet. To address this, they partnered with vendor Smartrak.

Smartrak implemented an integrated, education-led fleet safety solution using their telematics and crash detection products. This provided automated incident awareness, geofencing for high-risk bushfire zones, and driver behavior insights. The results over their 10+ year partnership include a sustained reduction in overspeed events, improved incident response for lone workers, and high levels of staff trust driven by a transparent safety culture.
