GroundScope delighted to join ACRISS Association

GroundScope is delighted to be a part of ACRISS, an Association formed over 30 years ago by leading Car Rental and Travel Technology companies in Europe. ACRISS has now expanded to include the Vehicle with Driver Service Industry (VDSI) and, together with GroundScope, can develop, set, and implement the standards necessary for the VDSI transfer industry in the same way they did many years ago with the car rental industry.

ACRISS identifies and develops the standards to avoid misleading information and ensure accurate information for the Car Rental and Vehicle with Driver Service industries. ACRISS’s mission is to educate and communicate the benefits of these standards in order to book with confidence. All ACRISS members follow its Code of Conduct and ensure they comply with the standards set and agreed upon by the Association.

GroundScope provides a comprehensive technology and management service for global business taxi and private hire requirements within the corporate travel marketplace. Over the past decade, GroundScope has rapidly grown to become recognised as the leading ground transportation provider for B2B, with a client portfolio of world-leading multinational organisations and industry partners.

‘VDSI Transfers is an exciting new division of ACRISS helping implement, support, and promote standards within the private hire industry. We are looking forward to working with GroundScope on our VDSI Transfers project together with our other Allied Associates; Blacklane, Karhoo, MyCab, Taxitender, and GDS partners Amadeus and Sabre.”
