GPS Fleet Tracking

Reduces Fuel Costs

A fleet tracker helps you map out more efficient routes and use less gas. In addition, with the ability to monitor and improve driver behavior, you can reduce speeding, excess idling, and unnecessary stops. These are all behaviors that can waste fuel.

Optimize Your Vehicle Resources

GPS fleet tracking lets you monitor the performance and location of your fleet vehicles in real-time. It gives you accurate information on fuel use, driver behavior, excessive idling, and the exact location at any give time. When you have all the information available about your fleet’s performance, you can focus on problem areas that will increase revenue for your business.

Lower Insurance-Related Expenses

Many insurance companies consider GPS tracking systems to be an asset to efficient fleet management. In many cases, fleets with GPS tracking systems on their vehicles can reduce insurance premiums. This is attractive to insurance companies because vehicles can be accurately and quickly tracked. Fleet supervisors and managers can get alerts when vehicles stray from their expected routes, making it easier to recover stolen vehicles and other assets. And, because GPS systems provide driver behavior data, it encourages drivers to act more responsibly when using company vehicles.

Reduce Maintenance Costs and Downtime

Your GPS system can be set up to alert you when routine maintenance is due. You’ll know which vehicles need tire rotations, oil changes, or other routine maintenance. This lets you stay on top of regular maintenance and extend the life of your fleet vehicles. You can schedule your maintenance in advance, and reduce unexpected breakdowns that keep your trucks off the road and leave your customers in the lurch.

Make Your Customers Happy

Your customers expect faster delivery as well as the flexibility to suit their timelines and needs. When you equip your fleet with GPS tracking, you can quickly make informed decisions that improve customer service. By knowing where all your vehicles are in real-time, you can alert your customers to any changes or let them know precisely where the driver is and when they will arrive.

Manage Your Drivers Better

When drivers know they are being tracked, they are more likely to drive well. GPS tracking lets you see who is a repeat offender and proactively train them to drive better, thus reducing accidents. And if there is an accident, you can use GPS tracked data to prove your driver was not at fault.

Increase Reliability

As a fleet manager, you must constantly manage vehicle performance and customer expectations. Your business would suffer if your customers found you unreliable for providing the expected service at the expected time. A GPS tracking system gives you real-time tracking information that helps you make efficient scheduling decisions that keep your fleet on time, and your customers satisfied.

Plan Routes Efficiently

Your drivers often travel in areas that they are unfamiliar with, so having correct directions is paramount. With a GPS system, they can plan their route before they hit the road. They get step-by-step directions for their entire route. This keeps them from getting lost and keeps everyone safe. They’ll also be alerted to accidents or traffic and can find alternative routes to help keep them on time.

Know the Location of Your Vehicles

An integrated fleet tracking system helps you monitor the location and road activities of your fleet. Using satellite technology, you can communicate with your drivers, so you’ll know if one encounters a problem or if you can assign extra trips to a driver if they finish their scheduled route early.

Locate All Your Assets

Owning or managing a fleet involves the risk of misuse and theft. After-hours and geofencing alerts let you know when a vehicle has traveled outside a boundary or is being used when it shouldn’t be. The geofencing alerts could mean theft or unauthorized use by an employee.

Avoid Accidents

Timely alerts can help your vehicle avoid accidents. Your GPS tracker can notify you through email or SMS, even if no one is actively monitoring the system. These integrations will inform you about any emergencies right away and can take the appropriate action.

Improve Financial Management

The data you get from an integrated GPS fleet tracking system helps you prepare profit and loss statements for any month with an accurate allocation of resources to manage the fleet. 

Better Time-Card Verification

If you pay drivers by the hour, a GPS tracking system gives you accurate information on when your drivers start their day and when they end it, based on information directly from their vehicles. You can match reports from your system against their time cards to make sure not just that they are actually working the hours they indicate on their time cards, but that they are paid only for those hours.

Reduce Paperwork

Your GPS system will automatically track all the data and analytics in a convenient format and store it so that you can use it when you need it. This gets rid of unnecessary paperwork and improves the efficiency of fleet managers, dispatchers, drivers, and bookkeepers. Reports can be run on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis as well as by driver.

Easy-to-Use

GPS tracking software collects and stores information related to vehicle performance and management, including speed, trip distance, driver behavior, and more. All this information is available to you with a few clicks of your mouse. Simply install the fleet tracking device on the dashboard, download the app, or access through your computer, and you’ll be on your way.
