The National Association of Vehicle Tracking and Protection Companies (ANERPV) held its first General Assembly , where key advances in logistics security, the professionalization of the sector and the implementation of new technologies were discussed.
Luis Enrique Villatoro Martínez, president of ANERPV, highlighted the three main axes that will guide the work of the association: professionalization, communication and alliances.
Regarding professionalization , he pointed out that various certifications are being promoted to strengthen the skills of the logistics security sector, as well as courses that protect the industry’s knowledge.
For the communication strategy , webinars and discussions have been held to strengthen ANERPV’s presence in the sector, in addition to a visibility strategy in the media, professional networks and podcasts, highlighting the impact of the sector on the country’s security and logistics.
For the last pillar, the development of Centinela 2.0 was presented , a key update in the ANERPV monitoring and tracking system, which will allow a better connection between partners and authorities, facilitating immediate response to emergencies, adding that it will be linked with the National Guard and various state authorities .
On the other hand, ANERPV has strengthened its collaboration with different government and state entities to improve transportation security, mainly authorities from the State of Mexico, Puebla, Michoacán, Guanajuato and Jalisco , which represent a high incidence of robberies.
“Approximately 60% of theft incidents are recorded between the State of Mexico and Puebla. With the addition of the National Guard, we are covering practically 80% of the events. This allows us to provide a better operational response,” Villatoro said.
Strategic alliances
In addition, ANERPV signed new agreements with Aleatica and the National Association of Importers and Exporters of the Mexican Republic (ANIERM) , reinforcing its commitment to logistical security in the country.
Antonio Lorenzo Ramos, Director of Asset Security at Aleatica, emphasized the importance of this alliance:
“Since our birth in 2018, we have been committed to smart and sustainable mobility. Therefore, partnerships with governments and specialized associations are essential, since safety is a joint effort,” he said.
He highlighted that the company operates in seven countries, in Mexico it manages the most important portfolio of road assets, with 264 million vehicle crossings per year and 373 km of roads operated , so this agreement will allow the exchange of information in real time, using Aleatica’s geolocation platforms, control centers and BETZ-type cameras, to immediately detect and communicate any emergency or incident.
For his part, Gerardo Tajonar, president of ANIERM, highlighted the importance of having tracking and certification systems in the supply chain , especially in the current global context.
“On behalf of ANIERM, we represent companies that depend on a comprehensive security chain. Current times require demonstrating traceability and evidence in each import and export operation,” he said.
