HARTFORD, Conn., April 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — LAZ Parking, the largest, fastest-growing privately-owned parking operator in the United States, is pleased to announce it has acquired a majority interest in FleetLogix, a provider of fleet management and staffing services serving the transportation, logistics, and fleet services industries. Based in San Diego, California, FleetLogix is recognized as a best-in-class managed labor and technology solutions provider in the transportation and mobility industry. The partnership with LAZ will allow the company to accelerate its growth and better support its customer base throughout the U.S. and Canada.

“We are thrilled to be partnering with FleetLogix and to be merging the world-class capabilities of our two companies,” said Alan Lazowski, Chairman and CEO of LAZ Parking.

The partnership is a great fit for LAZ because FleetLogix provides services complementary to LAZ’s core business of providing customers with best-in-class talent and technology. The two companies will be able to share operational best practices and technology for an enhanced customer experience. FleetLogix customers will benefit from access to LAZ resources and HR capabilities, which will enhance the speed with which FleetLogix and FleetAnalytix, its web-based data analysis platform, can deploy personnel. 

“This deal provides FleetLogix with the resources it needs to grow,” said Jeff Karp, President and Founder of LAZ Parking. “Bringing FleetLogix into the LAZ family makes perfect sense culturally and makes the most of each company’s strengths.” 

FleetLogix primarily serves rental car agencies, providing managed labor services that include transportation and cleaning of rental cars at over 37 airports nationwide. Other services provided by the company include onsite management, HR, payroll, and recruiting functions; shuttle bus driving; maintenance support; valet/check-in services and porters; lost and found management, and more. The company operates in 50 locations at 37 airports in over 20 states, with 2,400 employees. Its FleetAnalytix technology is in use at over 75 airports in the U.S. and Canada, tracking over 1.4 million vehicle movements per month.

“We could not be more excited about the opportunity this partnership represents for FleetLogix.” said Adam Kimball, CEO of FleetLogix. “We can’t think of a better partner with which to chart our future than LAZ.”

“A tremendous strategic step for our investment and the entire LAZ team,” said Jason Zibarras, founder and managing partner at Argo Infrastructure Partners, which, through its managed funds, is an investor in LAZ Parking.

Fathom Applauds Introduction of the FRONTIER Act, the First Federal Blueprint for Independent AI Verification

Published

Reps. Lori Trahan (D-MA-03) and Jay Obernolte (R-CA-23) introduce a bill to build a competitive marketplace of independent verifiers for frontier AI models.

WASHINGTON, July 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Fathom welcomes the introduction of the FRONTIER Act, the most complete federal framework yet for independent, third-party verification of frontier AI. The legislation is built to earn public trust as AI technology continues to accelerate. As frontier systems begin to take autonomous action in the world, the gap between what these models can do and our ability to keep them in check is widening. FRONTIER is the starting point to close that gap.

“AI governance keeps running into the same wall. The technology is hard to measure and it moves faster than any law can keep up with,” said Andrew Freedman, Co-Founder and CEO of Fathom. “Trying to write the perfect rules and freezing them in place won’t work. What will work is a competitive market of independent verifiers who are accountable for real-world outcomes and who the government can actually count on. The FRONTIER Act shows we can move fast and still get this right.”

The bill gets the fundamentals correct. It sets one public standard – the adequate mitigation of catastrophic risk – and holds both the AI companies and their independent verifiers accountable to it. FRONTIER does not freeze a single testing method into statute. Instead, it licenses competing verification organizations, allows them to sharpen their methods, and gives the government the power to revoke a license when a verifier’s work does not hold up in the field. That is how you build a system that keeps pace with the science instead of falling behind it.

Fathom thanks Reps. Trahan and Obernolte for their leadership, and for their courage in releasing a discussion draft, inviting scrutiny, and incorporating substantive improvements from across the field. One priority improvement as the bill advances: giving the government a fuller range of tools to act upstream – for pushing companies to close identified gaps in risk mitigation early, rather than only once a catastrophe is imminent. We are committed to working with these sponsors, committees of jurisdiction, and Congressional leadership to continue refining the bill in the weeks and months ahead.

About Fathom
Fathom is an independent nonprofit whose mission is to build a governance architecture that helps society navigate the transition to a world with AI by fostering trust, safety, and innovation. Fathom has developed and championed the independent verification model for AI and works with policymakers across the country to put it into practice. Learn more at http://fathom.org.
