STARRTREK CAPTURES THE TOP THREE WINS IN SCANIA’S ‘A GOOD DRIVER’ COMPETITION
Starrtrek Carriers Sdn Bhd scores all three wins for Scania’s ‘A Good Driver’ (AGD) Competition 2021/2022 truck category and is the best ‘A Good Company’ (AGC).
All three winners capitalised on the Scania Ecolution Fleet Management System (FMS) Control 1 training to score these top three spots by achieving the best fuel economy and CO2 emissions reduction. They were recognised at Starrtrek’s facility in Puncak Alam. Muhammad Rifaie Abdul Rahman of Starrtrek Carriers received the recognition of the best AGC from Daniel Tan, Solution Sales Director of Scania Southeast Asia.
“Congratulations to Khairul Anwar who is the AGD champion driving the Scania truck registration VGV 6398. Mat Sarimi driving Scania registration VGV 3968 is the first runner-up and Zaizul Fakerurozi driving Scania registration VGV 3986 truck is the second runner-up. Starrtrek’s data analyses of its drivers’ performance resulted in the AGD and AGC wins and reduced CO2 emissions for future generations.” stated Daniel Tan, Solutions Sales Director, Scania Southeast Asia.
Under an AGC, drivers automatically qualify as long as they are part of the Scania Ecolution partnerships and drive the specific vehicles under the programme. The vehicles they drive are marked with a Scania Ecolution sticker plus a t-shirt with AGD Qualifier Badge.
To win, a good driver’s driving must result in the best percentage of kilometre per litre improvement throughout the duration. This is tracked using Scania’s Fleet Management System. The 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners will then be crowned with a certificate and a host of attractive Scania premium prizes. The best that drives consistently in a safe, fuel-efficient, and environmentally friendly way will receive a Champion Jacket with AGD Champion Badge. The companies, where winners work, receive service vouchers worth MYR5,000/3,000/1,000 respectively.
