Softlogic Information Technologies (Pvt) Ltd has earned national and international recognition for its innovative fleet management solution, Senti – Talk to Your Fleet, securing a Bronze Award at the National ICT Awards – NBQSA 2026 and the ASOCIO Digital & AI Award 2026.

At the NBQSA 2026 awards, Senti received the Bronze Award in the Transport in Industrial category. The company also secured the ASOCIO Digital & AI Award in the AI in Manufacturing / Supply Chain category, recognising its application of artificial intelligence to address business and operational challenges.

These achievements highlight the growing contribution of Sri Lankan technology innovation to practical business solutions, particularly through the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) to transform operational data into actionable insights.

For organisations involved in supply chains, transportation and distribution, effective fleet management extends beyond simply tracking vehicle locations. Understanding driving behaviour, identifying maintenance requirements and using fleet data to improve operational decisions are equally important. Senti addresses these needs by combining AI and IoT technologies to provide real-time fleet visibility and support more informed decision-making.

The platform enables organisations to gain deeper insights into vehicle activity and improve operational efficiency. Its applications extend across industries where vehicle utilisation, delivery reliability and operational visibility are essential, including manufacturing, retail, healthcare, agriculture and public transportation.

Commenting on the achievement, Roshan Rassool, CEO and Managing Director of Softlogic Information Technologies (Pvt) Ltd, said the recognition reflects the company's commitment to using technology, data and intelligent insights to address real-world challenges and deliver measurable business value.

He highlighted that Senti combines AI and IoT to provide real-time fleet visibility, improve operational efficiency and support smarter, data-driven decisions. He also acknowledged the team's collective contribution to the solution's success, reaffirming the company's ambition to develop scalable technologies that strengthen Sri Lanka's competitiveness in the global technology industry.

The two awards recognise different aspects of the company's innovation efforts, with the NBQSA Bronze Award acknowledging Senti's contribution to industrial transportation, while the ASOCIO Digital & AI Award highlights Softlogic IT's broader work in applying AI to manufacturing and supply chain operations.

Through solutions such as Senti, Softlogic Information Technologies aims to make AI and IoT technologies more accessible and practical for organisations seeking improved operational visibility, stronger fleet management and more effective business decisions.
Commercial Bank and Toyota Lanka Extend Partnership to Deliver Attractive Leasing Solutions Across Sri Lanka
Commercial Bank of Ceylon and Toyota Lanka (Private) Limited have renewed their strategic partnership to make purchasing new Toyota vehicles more affordable through attractive leasing packages and exclusive customer benefits.

The renewed agreement brings together two leading organisations in their respective industries, providing leasing facilities for Toyota’s full range of passenger and commercial vehicles through Commercial Bank’s extensive island-wide branch network. Both existing and prospective customers will have access to flexible financing options on favourable terms.

Under the arrangement, Commercial Bank will offer competitive interest rates and flexible repayment plans tailored to customers’ income patterns. Customers securing leasing facilities for Toyota vehicles will also enjoy a waiver of credit card joining and annual fees for the first two years on cards issued by the Bank.

The leasing packages will also feature flexible residual value repayment options designed to reduce monthly instalments. Customers can defer up to 50% of the vehicle's value for a one-year lease period, with the deferred amount gradually reducing to 30% for a five-year tenure, payable at the end of the lease agreement.

Additional benefits will be available for brand-new Toyota vehicles financed under the partnership through Commercial Insurance Brokers (Pvt) Ltd. (CIBL). Insurance premium payments for policies arranged through CIBL can be converted into six- or 12-month 0% interest Easy Payment Plans (EPP), with all handling fees waived, further enhancing customers' financial flexibility.

Complementing the financing arrangements, Toyota Lanka will offer free vehicle registration, the first three standard services at no cost and a manufacturer's warranty covering three years or 100,000 kilometres, whichever comes first.

The renewed partnership reflects Commercial Bank's continued focus on providing competitive, customer-oriented financing solutions through collaborations with established automotive brands. By combining flexible leasing arrangements with insurance benefits and after-sales services, the initiative aims to make new vehicle ownership more convenient and financially manageable.

Commercial Bank was the first Sri Lankan bank to achieve a market capitalisation exceeding US$1 billion. It was also ranked the No. 1 Sri Lankan bank in the 2026 edition of The Banker's prestigious Top 1000 World Banks ranking. With the highest capital base among local banks, it remains one of Sri Lanka's largest private sector lenders.

Ranked No. 1 in the Business Today Top 40, Commercial Bank is recognised as one of the country's most respected and award-winning financial institutions. The Bank is also a leader in digital innovation and Sri Lanka's first fully carbon-neutral bank.

Its local network comprises more than 270 strategically located branches and an extensive automated banking network. Commercial Bank also maintains the widest international presence among Sri Lankan banks, with 21 branches in Bangladesh, a majority stake in a fully fledged Tier I bank in the Maldives, a microfinance company in Myanmar and a representative office at the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC).
