Mumbai: Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), (BSE: 532540, NSE: TCS) a leading global IT services, consulting and business solutions organisation, today announced that Element Fleet Management has leveraged TCS’s experience in Digital ReimaginationTM to deliver Xcelerate™, Element’s next-generation fleet management system, for its 2,800+ customers in the US, Canada and Mexico.

Element’s vision for the Xcelerate customer portal is to make fleet management simpler and more scalable, with on-demand access to advanced fleet analytics.
