Dialog Unveils Innovative School Van Tracking Solution for Enhanced Student Safety

Dialog Axiata PLC, Sri Lanka's #1 connectivity provider, has announced the launch of the Dialog Suraksha School Van Location Tracker, a cutting-edge solution designed to enhance student safety, bridge communication gaps between parents and school transport operators, and improve operational efficiency in school transportation. This launch is a testament to Dialog’s ongoing commitment to leveraging the latest in technology to improve lives, addressing growing concerns among parents about the safety and reliability of school commutes.

The Dialog Suraksha School Van Location Tracker software, developed by The Connection Workshop, a fully owned subsidiary of The South Asian Technologies Pvt Ltd., is part of the Dialog Suraksha umbrella—a comprehensive parental control service dedicated to ensuring children's safety.

Created in response to alarming statistics, such as the finding that 98% of parents lacked real-time visibility into their children's location during school transport, Dialog, in collaboration with The Connection Workshop, is launching the Suraksha School Van Location Tracker to address this issue. This affordable and user-friendly solution offers real-time monitoring, notifications, and shared access features, providing parents and guardians with live tracking of the school van’s location via the TeDi Fleet app. Up to two family members can track the van in real-time, while SMS alerts keep parents informed about key events, such as the van’s arrival at or departure from designated locations like home or school—all for just LKR 590 + tax per quarter.

In line with this growing need, school van owners now have the opportunity to offer this value-added service to parents, making the daily commute more transparent, secure, and reassuring for families. By providing a more accountable and reliable service, operators can build stronger trust with parents and streamline their daily operations. All it takes is a one-time device purchase of LKR 18,990 and an annual subscription of LKR 1,910 + tax.

Designed with 4G/GPS connectivity and approved by the Telecommunications Regulatory Commission of Sri Lanka (TRCSL), the Dialog Suraksha School Van Location Tracker ensures seamless communication and operational efficiency for both van owners and parents. Its plug-and-play installation, affordability, and ease of use make it a standout solution, positioning Dialog as a leader in next-gen connectivity and student safety. This initiative further illustrates how Dialog continues to leverage the latest in technology to enhance everyday life, solidifying its role as a pioneer in connectivity-driven solutions for Sri Lanka's education sector.

The Dialog Suraksha School Van Location Tracker is available at select Dialog Experience Centers.
