"Ulysse, the leading provider in France for the transport and assistance of individuals with reduced mobility (PRM), is a continually expanding network. Founded by Franck Vialle in 1996, the company has developed a recognized expertise by offering tailored services suited to various types of disabilities. 

With 110 branches spanning mainland France, as well as locations in Martinique and Réunion Island, Ulysse is committed to growing its presence to meet the demands of a rapidly expanding sector, often establishing multiple branches within a single department to ensure optimal coverage. 

With a fleet of 4.000 vehicles and an equal number of qualified driver-assistants, Ulysse guarantees accessible mobility for everyone.

In the coming years, Ulysse will face increasing demand, driven by an aging population and the ongoing reality of disability for many individuals. 

The company has already taken proactive steps by integrating electric vehicles and adhering to new safety and accessibility standards. To satisfy the rising expectations of users while maintaining a sustainable business model, continuous innovation and service optimization will be crucial."

"By monitoring the vehicle status in real time, telematics allows us to anticipate maintenance needs effectively. Automatic alerts for mechanical issues help us prevent unplanned breakdowns, which not only reduces repair costs and downtime, but also enhances the safety of our drivers and users. 

Furthermore, the telematics data can be shared with key stakeholders, including our customers, fostering greater transparency and closer collaboration. This integration ensures that we prioritize user safety while optimizing the operation of our vehicle fleet."

"Enhanced driving practices lead to greater comfort for users. Connect Fleet provides us with detailed reports on fuel consumption and distances traveled, allowing us to accurately assess our environmental impact. This capability enables us to set emission reduction targets, monitor our progress, and transparently communicate our sustainability efforts to customers and partners. By integrating electric vehicles into our fleet, we leverage telematics to optimize routes based on the availability of charging points, further promoting greener mobility.

Additionally, telematics helps us track and report reductions in CO2 emissions resulting from the use in electric vehicles. These reports serve as valuable evidence of our commitment to sustainability, showcasing our efforts in minimizing our environmental footprint."
