Vehicle tracking is not an expense – it is an investment that brings in value and returns for your fleet business in the long run.
As your fleet size grows with your business, the repair and maintenance requirements also increase, resulting in higher upkeep costs for the company. Sudden breakdowns and malfunctions can make you lose business and more importantly affect the reputation of your business in the market.
Vehicle Trackers to the Rescue!
For businesses whose fleet covers long travel routes constantly, having a comprehensive vehicle tracking system can be a lifesaver. With GPS tracking and online reporting, these devices can organise your maintenance schedule, keep track of vehicle condition, mileage and engine deterioration, and alert you to any repairs and upkeep needs.
They also:
- Let you plan routes and trips.
- Save on unnecessary mileage
- Improve fuel consumption.
- Track driver performance.
- Identify speeding and unsafe driving.
- Detect illegal driver behaviour.
- Offer compliance with industry standards of work hours, health and safety.
- Bring down payroll and admin costs.
- Ensure that you aren’t charged for unnecessary overtime.
- Give you access and total control over your entire fleet of vehicles regardless of their size and location.
- Provide carbon footprint tracking so that your business remains green and environment friendly.
- Reduce insurance premiums.
- Allow checking of diagnostic lights via computer dashboard (on certain tracking systems).
- Come with geofencing feature. For e.g., if there are certain areas that you don’t want drivers entering, you’ll receive warning alerts via email and also get app-based notifications when the vehicles move into that zone.
- Let you stay connected to the driver interface. Tracker vision products offer fleet control and two-way communication between your desktop
