Cognizant has been selected by one of the world's largest commercial vehicle manufacturers to transform its global workplace services through a multi-year partnership. The initiative will deploy Cognizant WorkNEXT™, an AI-powered digital platform designed to modernise workplace operations across factories and offices worldwide. The collaboration aims to enhance efficiency, adaptability and user satisfaction by leveraging artificial intelligence and automation. WorkNEXT™ combines AI-first approaches with zero-touch and high-touch support to create adaptive, human-centric workplaces.

Class8 has launched its platform with Daimler Truck North America, offering digital tools to Freightliner fleet operators. The Toronto-based freight technology company will provide services to customers operating Fifth-Generation Cascadia and Fourth-Generation Cascadia vehicles with CTP2 telematics. The platform centres on a free wireless Electronic Logging Device that eliminates installation and subscription costs whilst maintaining Hours of Service compliance. Additional optional services include Load Optimisation for real-time freight recommendations, Voice AI for automated load booking, and Dispatch AI for route planning. The modular approach allows carriers to adopt services incrementally without long-term commitments. Class8 services will be available to eligible Freightliner customers from February 2026, with expanded vehicle support throughout the year. The company previously launched Load Finder with Volvo and Mack.
