Car Pooling for
Corporate Mobility
SMART Car Pooling manages corporate operational vehicles as a shared fleet. Bookings, driver assignments, vehicle readiness, and travel costs are coordinated according to company policy.
Service Scope
Managed Corporate Car Pool coordinates operational passenger vehicles as a shared fleet booked according to need. SMART can manage client-owned vehicles, rental vehicles, or a combination of both.

Management Only
Vehicles belong to the client company. SMART manages requests, assignments, drivers, and vehicle readiness within the agreed scope.
Rental + Management

Hybrid
