Just like he had done for the past two weeks, Kunle had Sola, his driver take him to work and return the car to his house immediately. This is because Kunle had been attending an official conference in Lekki which usually runs late into the night and since he finds it difficult to drive at night, he decided to take a cab home at the end of each day’s training.

On the last day of the training, he got a call from his wife around 1 pm asking him if they were expecting visitors she didn’t know about. He said no and she explained that she just saw their driver at Obalende with his car filled with people. Together they came to the only logical conclusion; their driver had turned the car to a commercial cab! The next morning, Sola was sacked as soon as he reported to duty.

You are the King of Knowledge when it comes to what happens in your home, office and probably everywhere else. However, can you say the same about the person you trust to sit behind your wheels? Is your driver really who he says he is? Maybe he drives drunk in your absence, takes your car out for a spin with his girlfriend(s) and gives you an unlikely story about how your car got bashed.

Like Kunle, many have been pissed off by their drivers more times than they can count. Why don’t you share your experience to find out if your case is the worst or most hilarious so far? Join the conversation on #MyWorstDriverStory brought to you by Nigeria’s leading Indigenous IT Solutions Company, Concept Nova.

Upload a 30-60 Seconds Video (Instagram or Facebook) describing in brief, your worst driver experience so far.
The videos in which we are tagged would be posted on our social media platforms and if your story generates enough buzz to garner the most likes, shares and views, you stand a chance to be among the four lucky winners who would go home with amazing prizes.

Thwack!!!

That was the sound of a slap to my face while trying to get into my car last Saturday. I had just finished at the salon around 9 pm and was heading home to rest after a stressful day at a friend’s wedding.

I turned around to see who dealt me that heavy slap and found myself face to face with a masked man who said “give me your keys now.” What! He was asking for keys to the brand new Kia Sorento hubby gave me for my birthday three weeks ago. I shuddered at the thought of my beloved baby taken away from me.

With trembling hands, I searched my handbag, crying, panting and sweating all at the same time. As soon as I got out the keys, he snatched it, entered the car and sped off.

I was rooted to one spot till I remembered to call my husband in panic. On telling him, he laughed and said “Babe, relax, the Concept Nova Ti-Kon Tracker was installed in the vehicle the moment it was bought.” He was not in the country, so I had to get in touch with the company’s recovery team myself. In less than 48 hours, I got my car back. What a relief!

Extra income in this our present economy is indeed a must for all. So why lag behind while others are making it big out there?
Millions of people would like to earn some side income outside of their primary jobs, but most of them do not consider extra income to be a necessity. A side income is something everyone needs.
Here are a few reasons why you should start building an income stream outside of your main job.

1. It's a Personal Safety Net
Your side income can be your personal safety net against unemployment. Job security is really a thing of the past, and you should be prepared to lose that income at any time.
Having a good side income is better than having an emergency fund, because an emergency fund will run out, but you can build your side income further if you lose your job.

2. Control Your Income
You do have control over my side income. Adding a side income gives you greater control on your finances and helps fight against the recession's toll on your household.

3. Have More Savings
This one is a no brainer. If you can earn more income and spend the same amount, then you will be able to save more and invest more.
Every little bit of extra money will bring you closer to financial independence, and everyone could use more savings and less debt.

4. Use Your Time More Productively
Most people want to have some side income but never seriously pursue it because they are too comfortable with a steady paycheck and don't have the motivation to do something extra outside of their regular jobs.
Then there are others who simply do not know where to start. If you do not know how to make that extra income, not to worry, Concept Nova Brokers program is the best way you can make that extra income without stress, all you need do is to register on our portal, log on your client/prospect and we take it up from there. After a successful closure of the sales, you will earn your income/commission instantly!

It’s as simple and convenient as that.

To register on the broker portal all you need to do is to sign up www.concept-nova.com/brokers, click on register button on the right hand side of the page and fill in your information on the fields available.

Hello Concept Nova,

I work in a FMCG Company in Nigeria as the Operations and Channel Manager. Over the years we have been experiencing a great deal of losses due to theft and the huge amount we spend on repairing our vehicles.

With the economy’s recent state, the case has worsened as our profit margin has dipped further. I stumbled across your vehicle tracking solution on the internet and I would love to know how it can be used in my organisation so we can get back on track.

Dear Manager,
It is no longer news that in many countries, theft of fuel and vehicle misuse has become widespread. The case is even worse in Nigeria as many companies lose billions of naira to this menace on a daily basis. As a result, a complete, accurate and highly effective monitoring system is needed.

The high market demand for reliable and high-precision equipment to curb this menace gave birth to FLEETRAK, our fleet monitoring solution. With this solution, we are able to offer our customers exclusively high precision and real time monitoring of their asset.

Below are some of the ways the FLEETRAK Monitor can help curb theft and spike up your company’s profit margin again.
1. Increases Cost Savings
With proper route planning, cost on fuel consumption and vehicle wear and tear would be drastically reduced by 37.5 Percent.

2. Reduces risks of damage to the company’s image
With the ability to track your company’s vehicles, the chances of your vehicle being involved in activities that could be damaging to your company’s image without your knowledge is reduced by a drastic 75 percent.

3. Improves Monitoring of Sales Boundary Areas
With its geo-fencing feature, FLEETRAK helps you manage your team within the geographical boundaries of operation. It greatly improves your ability to effectively monitor the movement of your sales or service delivery team within their boundary and alerts you when they go outside the boundary.

4. Improves Efficiency on Sales Delivery with navigation assistance
Inability to plan delivery routes could be the downfall of many destination based sales and service providers. However, the FLEETRAK helps you to account for tolls and danger zones ahead of time. It is safe to say that the solution improves efficiency on sales delivery by 40 percent.

5. Boosts customers confidence
FLEETRAK ensures that the movement of your goods and personnel are not unnecessarily delayed or diverted, and as such you deliver as at when due to customers. This way you are sure to gain an increase in customer confidence.

6. Increases Productivity, accountability and profitability
With the FLEETRAK Monitor, the fleet manager worries less about hands-on monitoring of the fleet and gets the time to focus more on other productive projects. With better knowledge of his vehicle's whereabouts, he effectively estimates arrival/delivery time and also guides the driver while he/she navigates through unfamiliar routes. All these amount to increased productivity for the company.

7. Improves Driver Behaviour
The FLEETRAK monitoring device gives you total control of your asset and those in possession of it. With an alarm system that sends alerts to fleet managers when certain rules defined by the manager are broken, e.g. reckless driving, over speeding, etc. this device improves responsibility on the drivers’ part by 54 percent . It also saves you a lot on maintenance and repairs.

Extra income awaits you, what are you waiting for?

Haulage theft, vehicle/goods interception and high maintenance cost (fueling and repairs) are the major challenges faced by many logistic and manufacturing companies and their operating/fleet managers.

These companies have to move huge volumes of items including; industrial raw materials, farm produce, refined petroleum products, heavy and light equipment, vehicles and consumer goods valued at billions of Naira from one place to another.

In some cases, they have to move these materials/goods late into the night which is not only risky, but also difficult to monitor, as the manager may find it difficult to keep track of all the vehicles, their content and drivers all by himself.

It is in view of this that the Federal Government recently disclosed its plans to install trackers on all trucks to monitor criminal diversion of petroleum products right from the points of distribution.

With Concept Nova’s FleeTrak, an integrated solution for real time tracking and management of both on-road and off-road assets, the Fleet Manager’s job just got easier as he can now easily track all his fleet activities from any location, whilst curbing theft and boosting productivity.

It is very frustrating when people who have gone out very early in the morning in search of means to take care of theirs and family’s needs are returning home after a long day only to have their lives disrupted by random thieves who make away with their hard earned money and other valuables.

For ladies this could be worse as they may not be able to defend themselves as easily as the men would. Just last week, Bimpe was on her way home from work at around 7:40pm. Unfortunately, not only did she have to deal with the stress from a hard day at work, she also had to go through the slow moving traffic ahead, as usual.

With her windows wound up and the car radio on, she was oblivious to the happenings around her till she heard a deafening sound; and felt fragments from her shattered window glass on her laps.

In a flash, she parted with two phones, a purse which contained some cash and bank cards, her international passport, and credit cards. Bimpe was in so much shock after the robbery, and had to call her husband who took her to the Police Station where she reported the incident.

Just like Bimpe, you never expect to be a victim of a robbery attack, so the need to take adequate measures as regards your continuous safety cannot be over emphasised.

Watching over children, especially very young ones can be a tedious task as parents/handlers find it difficult to keep up with their movements sometimes. This is because children have boundless energy and are prone to wandering around the house especially forbidden areas even under the strictest supervision which could lead to injuries.

Accidental injuries in and around the home are one of the leading causes of serious harm and domestic deaths in young children especially those under 5 years as they are less able to assess danger.

As babies grow older, they're able to move about, reach things higher up and climb to find hidden objects and with many modern homes having glass windows, doors, tables or other furniture, it is quite risky if care is not taken because these kids have the tendency to climb over or even break these glasses which may lead to cuts and injuries of various degrees.

Here’s the good news! With Concept Nova’s C-Protect, your kids are safe from getting cut or injured by glass shards in any case of glass breaks whether or not you are home.

Once installed on glass surfaces, this anti-glass break solution which is an invisible coat of film does not only prevent the glass from shattering during accidental glass break, it also holds all the pieces together, protecting individuals from injury, as well as denying entry to a potential thief.

The C-Protect also safeguards car owners by reducing the ease of robbery to the barest minimum as it is nearly impossible to break the car glass upon multiple hits.

As a country that is largely dependent on alternative sources of power generation (majorly generator), due to epileptic power, any glitch with the supply of petrol goes a long way to affect many Nigerians, their businesses and the transport system in general.

Another episode of Fuel Scarcity began earlier in the month and as expected long queues started emerging left, right and center, black marketers began to have a field day and transportation fares skyrocketed.

In the midst of all these it is only fair that you effectively scrutinize and monitor the exact rate of fuel usage in both mobile and stationary tanks most especially if you are not physically present. Even when you are the one in charge of the vehicle, it is advisable to take adequate measures to manage and conserve fuel in order to spend less this period.

With these 5 tips you can effectively do that:

1. Make fewer trips: Driving a car that has been parked for a few hours consumes more fuel for the first five miles as the engine has become cold. So, instead of going out on separate occasions, it is ideal to try as much as possible to combine all daily errands into one big trip.

2. Avoid carrying unnecessary weight: Just like your body, your car needs more fuel to move around more weight. Vehicles get better mileage when they’re not loaded with unnecessary weight. Every 200 lbs. of additional weight trims one mile off fuel efficiency. The heavier the item, the greater the effect it will have on your fuel consumption.

3.Turn the air-conditioning off: It's tempting to leave the car air-condition on especially with the heat going on nowadays. However, this coolness doesn’t come without a price because it uses quite a bit of fuel as using the air conditioner increases fuel cost from 13% up to 21%. So if you are working at conserving your fuel, winding down your car glass sometimes wouldn’t be a bad idea.

4.Don't Drive Aggressively: One perfect way to conserve fuel is by traveling at a constant speed. Avoid aggressive driving and aggressive starting of your vehicle because the vehicle loses fuel economy at a high speed - above 55 mph. Driving 65 instead of 75 mph reduces fuel cost 13% while driving 55 would save 25%. So if you're a patient driver, you'll have lower fuel bills - it's as simple as that really.

5.Encourage Carpooling: Carpooling helps to conserve fuel and also limits the number of vehicles on the road. Sharing a ride to work with a friend or two effectively doubles your fuel economy and allows you to use the money for other things.

In addition to all of these, acquiring an efficient fuel management system is an overall tool for monitoring your fuel consumption. Concept Nova’s FUEL MANAGER is a top notch integrated remote monitoring solution that allows you detect the exact rate of fuel usage in Cars, Buses, Vans, Trucks, Construction machines, Air and sea vehicles, Diesel generators tanks etc.

It saves individuals and companies money and prevents theft; it increases fuel optimization and overall productivity and also improves fuel efficiency while reducing operational and maintenance costs.

Every day, organizations dealing in telecoms, manufacturing, agriculture, Oil and gas, FMCGs amongst others, move huge volumes of items including; industrial raw materials, farm produce, refined petroleum products, heavy and light equipment, vehicles and consumer goods etc ...valued at billions of Naira.

In many organizations, there is a Fleet Manager responsible for overseeing the movement of these goods either to the manufacturers or the end users. It is therefore his duty to make sure that these merchandise arrive at their specified destinations intact and well accounted for.
This becomes harder to do when the number of fleets begins to increase drastically as the fleet manager finds it more difficult to keep track of the vehicles, their content and drivers by all by himself at once, resulting to an increase in cases of theft, goods diversion and other discrepancies.

As a fleet manager, imagine a scenario where you can effectively track and monitor the movement of all your organization’s vehicles from the comfort of your office or home via a click on your internet enabled device. Interesting right? FleeTrak Monitor from Concept Nova can do this and so much more for every fleet manager/organization.

Increases Productivity, accountability and profitability: With the FleeTrak Monitor the fleet manager worries less about hands on monitoring of these various fleets and gets the time to focus more on other projects. With better knowledge of his vehicles’ where about, he effectively estimates arrival/delivery time and also guide the driver while he/she navigates through unfamiliar routes. All these amount to increased productivity for the company in the short and long run.

Improves Driver Behaviour : The FleeTrak monitoring device gives you total control of your asset and those in possession of it. With an alarm system that sends alerts to fleet managers when certain rules defined by the manager are broken, e.g. reckless driving, over speeding, etc. this device improves responsibility on the drivers’ part. It also saves you a lot on maintenance, fuel and repairs.

Real Time Monitoring: With our premium devices, you know at any point in time the current state of your vehicle. You can also access your vehicle's location instantly at all times, from your mobile device or personal computer, online.

The FleeTrak is every Fleet Manager’s best friend, why not get yours today? For more information, kindly log on to www.concept-nova.com/FleeTrak

The bane of any fleet manager is how to manage the menace of haulage theft; and with many companies losing tons of money to this act weekly, it has become necessary to find a lasting solution. Thankfully, with the aid of modern day technology, fleet managers now have ways to effectively monitor the quantity and movement of large scale goods from one place to another, reducing the incidences of theft.

The following tips would help fleet managers manage the movement of goods, curb illegal haulage, improve productivity and ultimately increase profit margin.

1. Focus on vehicle maintenance: Keeping those fleets or tailers in tip-top condition should already be topmost priority of all fleet managers. It is very important that drivers treat the fleet with the same respect as they would their own. That way, incidences of early “wear-and-tear” would be minimal, Which translates to lesser cost for repairs. The drivers should also be given adequate training on terms of usage of the vehicles and basic maintenance.

2. Take regular vehicle inspection reports: Keeping track of vehicle condition helps in two ways. It gives the fleet manager a strong audit trail which helps protect the company in the case of disputes and also helps bring up potential issues in the vehicles before they turn into bigger problems. Involving employees in the process aids them in understanding their responsibilities as regards maintenance.

3. Lower Fuel costs: Operating a successful and cost effective fleet in today’s economic climate requires you to be on top of your spending and identifying areas of waste so as to implement cost saving initiatives. Since Fuel is often the second largest variable expense (after depreciation) faced by fleet managers, it is important to find ways of cutting down fuel cost. This can be done by getting fuel-efficient technologies such as fuel cards, vehicle weight reductions and also educating drivers on the acceptable speed limits.

4. Get a centralized fleet management system: How many miles per gallon can a fleet consume? How can this be compared to the sales it actually posts? How long is spent idling and how much cost does this equate to? How does your driver behave while on wheels? How often does he divert goods? Answering all these questions might be a bit tasking and time consuming for a fleet manager to do on his own, so it’s advisable to go the easy way by investing in an effective and centralized fleet management system which allows for easy monitoring of the fleet from anywhere.

Concept Nova’s C-Cargo is an ideal fleet management tool that gives you real time information on optimal load bearing capacity of vehicle, Drivers’ behaviour, loading/ unloading events, helping you to curb illegal haulage of commodity outside the required items while improving productivity.

Sometime last week, Lagosians were hit with the news of another looming Fuel Scarcity. Immediately, long queues started emerging in filling stations as people were struggling to fill their cars and kegs in preparation for the scarcity. Thankfully it was just a scare because the situation did not last long.

However if the situation had gone on for longer, some car owners might just have given their drivers time off while they join public transportation to work either because they do not have the time and energy to queue up in filling stations or they don't trust their drivers not to shortchange them by buying less than the agreed quantity.

Owning Concept Nova’s Fuel Management solution, FUEL MANAGER helps you to worry less about situations like this because you are able to monitor the exact amount of fuel that goes in and out of your car daily. That way you can go about your normal business and send the driver to the filling station, knowing that he would get the right litre of fuel needed.

The FUEL MANAGER is an integrated remote monitoring solution that allows you detect the exact rate of fuel usage in Cars, Buses, Vans, Trucks, Construction machines, Air and sea vehicles, its usage also extends to mobile and stationary tanks like Farms tanks and Diesel generators tanks.

Using the combination of hardware fuel monitoring devices (sensors and probes) and a robust web enabled application; FUEL MANAGER has the ability to capture real-time statistics on fuel consumption, the condition as well as location of the asset all at a click of any internet enabled device.

It saves you and your company money and protects you against theft; it increases fuel optimization and overall productivity and also improves fuel efficiency while reducing operational and maintenance costs.

Car accidents are one of the greatest threats to life and that’s because they are a major cause of injuries, disabilities and in extreme cases, deaths.

A recent report by the World Health Organisation (WHO) on road traffic deaths explains that Nigeria accounts for the highest fatalities in Africa with 33.7 percent per 100,000 population every year, this places Nigeria as having the second worst traffic fatalities in the world.

A modern passenger vehicle contains about 100 pounds of glass, a very fragile and dangerous material which can cause great injury once it pierces through the skin. Many times, the fatal injuries sustained during accidents are as a result of flying shards of glasses or other items that fly into vehicles on impact.

These accidents can happen anytime and to anybody no matter how careful you are because you can’t guarantee how excellent the next driver is because there would always be careless drivers on the roads. So it is important to limit the chances to the barest minimum by doing all you can to protect yourself while driving.

C-Protect, an anti-glass break solution from Concept Nova helps to hold a vehicle’s glasses in place in an event that it shatters during accident, it also prevents debris from other vehicles from getting into yours to cause more injury.

This product is made of resistive transparent film coated on both sides of the car glass/window to serve as a better form of protection in case of an accident. This multi-function solution also reduces the ease of robbery and vandalism to the barest minimum as it is nearly impossible to break the car glass upon multiple hits.

Fuel has always been an integral component of our lives in Nigeria. The unfaltering challenges with power supply and distribution faced over the years by Nigerians has resulted in us being especially dependent on petrol and diesel for running generators in the homes and workplaces.
The cost of running a 150KVA generator for business operations from 8am to 5pm is substantial. The average fuel usage for running a 9-5 is at 85 to 95 liters’ a day with a normal price of N135 (One Hundred and Thirty Five Naira) per litre which equals to about N12, 000 every day. In these climes, with its scarcity being the order of the day, fuel is practically liquid gold… a rare and precious asset.

Imagine having to spend triple the amount of the average fuel consumption per day, 12,000 multiplied by 3 that is N36, 000 just on fuel for one day. Let’s not even go into how much diesel would cost. Businesses have had to put a halt on operations due to this current fuel’s scarcity; banks are shutting down at 1pm just to save up fuel for the next day’s operations. Sad as it may be every other aspect of lives has been tremendously affected by this situation. The last thing you want to worry about is a dishonest staff smuggling your precious “Liquid gold”

Across small and large businesses alike, it is commonplace for staff involved in running the generators to engage in theft of resources or facilitate leakages in the operating process. A typical instance is where the fuel supplier connives with the administrative staff or security to supply less than the agreed amount and the price differential is shared amongst the involved fraudsters. This increases the cost of production and decreases operational efficiency of the said establishment. How can you curb this pilferage? Is it possible to conveniently monitor your “liquid gold?”

For the majority of those that are heavily reliant on generators for power, you could be saving a significant percentage of your fuel expenses by wisely investing in a Fuel Monitoring solution.

Concept Nova’s fuel manager is a fuel monitoring solution that gives a realistic analysis of your fuel consumption using web based technology.
This solution is a combination of a hardware fuel monitoring device (sensors and probes) and a robust cutting edge web-enabled application, giving it the ability to capture real-time statistics on the movement of fuel in and out of the asset/vessel, as well as location of asset.
Mangers are now able to monitor in and out flow of your company’s fuel and how much fuel has been consumed within a specific time frame.

The fuel monitoring solution also detects any fuel-theft attempt and when the fuel vessel is being refuelled. This fuel manager is designed as a condition monitor that checks the working hours of your generator also detecting any leakage or faults in the tank. This protects your organization against unforeseeable mishaps and asset malfunctions. Getting this fuel monitoring solution would not only help your organization optimize its fuel usage thereby reducing costs but it would also increase the overall operational efficiency of the company. With this solution your worries about fraud, fuel theft, operational and cost inefficiencies can be curbed

Look no further! Concept Nova’s fuel monitoring solution has been specially designed to cater to these needs. Your organization does not have to be a victim of “fuel fraud” especially in these trying times. Improve in fuel efficiency and reduce fuel cost with Concept Nova’s fuel monitoring solution
