Embark Safety & Samsara Launch Two-Way Integration Connecting Telematics and Driver Risk Data
Embark Safety and Samsara Launch Two-Way Integration to Unify Enterprise Driver Risk, Safety, and Compliance Data.
Embark Safety, an enterprise driver risk management and compliance platform, today announced the launch of a two-way integration with Samsara, now available through the Samsara App Marketplace. The integration enables organizations with large and distributed driver populations to connect telematics, motor vehicle record, driver qualification, and compliance data across both platforms, giving enterprise safety and risk teams a more complete view of driver risk across their workforce.
The integration connects Samsara and Embark Safety in both directions. Embark Connect customers can incorporate Samsara telematics events, safety scores, and hours-of-service information alongside driver record and compliance data. Samsara customers can access driver risk and MVR insights from Embark Safety directly within their existing Samsara account, helping safety and compliance teams manage DQF requirements, identify higher-risk drivers, and maintain a more comprehensive view of driver risk across their workforce.
For enterprise organizations managing hundreds or thousands of drivers across multiple locations, departments, or operating companies, driver-risk information often resides across multiple systems. Telematics platforms capture what is happening behind the wheel, while motor vehicle records, licensing information, driver qualification records, training history, and other compliance data provide additional insight into an employee’s overall risk profile.
Connecting these sources allows organizations to evaluate driver behavior and compliance information together rather than independently.
“Large organizations manage driver risk across a growing number of systems—from telematics and HR platforms to MVR monitoring, driver qualification, training, and compliance,” said Edwin Sosa, CEO of Embark Safety. “Our integration with Samsara helps bring those data points together so enterprise safety teams can identify risk earlier, prioritize intervention, and manage driver safety at scale.”
Samsara provides real-time visibility into how employees operate vehicles. Safety events may include speeding, aggressive driving, harsh braking, distraction, mobile-device usage, unsafe following distance, lane departures, seat-belt violations, near collisions, crashes, and other behavioral risk indicators.
Embark Safety complements this information with driver-record and compliance intelligence. Through its platform, organizations can monitor motor vehicle records for reportable changes such as new violations, suspensions, revocations, and license-status changes while also managing broader driver qualification, compliance, and safety programs.
Together, the platforms can help safety teams identify situations that may not be apparent from a single data source. For example, an organization may identify a driver whose telematics risk score is deteriorating while simultaneously receiving new violations or changes to the driver’s motor vehicle record.
This combined visibility allows organizations to prioritize higher-risk drivers and determine when coaching, training, compliance review, or corrective action may be appropriate.
Built for Enterprise Driver-Risk Programs
The integration is designed to support organizations operating large and complex driver populations across multiple states, locations, departments, and business units.
Embark Safety’s platform enables organizations to centralize driver-risk and compliance programs while integrating with existing enterprise technology, including telematics, HR, fleet management, and other business systems.
Through configurable workflows, APIs, reporting, driver segmentation, and automated monitoring, organizations can manage driver-risk programs at scale without replacing the technology platforms already supporting their operations.
