Angel Worldwide is going Green



As one of the first chauffeured providers in the industry to institute a comprehensive and sustainable service for business travelers and their families, Angel Worldwide is, quite simply, the choice for those who want to minimize their impact on the environment.

Angel Worldwide has taken an unprecedented preemptive action to reduce its impact on the environment by launching a comprehensive program to take on climate change issues. The plan is based on the belief that the uncertainty and risks presented by global warming are so great, it is better to take action immediately rather than to wait for scientific research and technological improvements to “fix” climate change.

Angel Worldwide is committed to the development and maintenance of an environmentally-friendly business model. Through our comprehensive initiatives, we are setting the emission reduction standards for the executive ground transportation industry in conjunction with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

Angel Worldwide is proud to be part of organizations of transportation industry veterans and environmental experts working together to promote education and action within the executive ground transportation industry to address the problems created by climate change.

Angel Worldwide has implemented comprehensive programs designed to help us exceed industry standards by providing detailed auditing, goal setting, and carbon offsetting. Read More

Global Positioning System (GPS)

Angel Worldwide employs tracking solutions from Omatics utilizing high speed wireless technology and satellite based Global Positioning Systems (GPS) to obtain vehicle location and velocity information.

Dispatch personnel always know where each vehicle in our fleet is located and their exact location thereby enabling the dispatch team with the ability to make up-to-the-moment vehicle management decisions that have an immediate positive immediate impact on our customers.

These GPS Systems display the displays locations of vehicles in real-time on multiple maps at different zoom levels. The dispatcher can easily zoom to the surrounding area to see which vehicles are in the vicinity for last minute ASAP request for a service. The System also log all vehicle locations and events. Any log can be recalled to display the activities of any vehicle, group of vehicles, or all vehicles during a specified time interval.

These systems provide our Dispatch Office with real time vehicle status and location. With 45-plus vehicles on the roads at any given time, the Angel Worldwide dispatch team can monitor the speed of traffic flow on virtually every major freeway and divert drivers away from congestion problems on a moment's notice. "This saves time, fuel and money but most importantly, we serve our customers better."
