Fleet Tracking for
Businesses
GPS Fleet Tracking
• Often times businesses and service providers require
large fleets of vehicles to operate and control
productivity on a large scale.
• Yet without a cohesive method of managing the
progress of a fleet, businesses miss out on optimizing
their service efficiency and in fact, risk losing customers.
• GPS tracking helps increase business productivity on a
multitude of levels including:
• Drivers
• Customers
• Management
Reduced Fuel Cost
• Generally service companies suffer from many
vehicle expenses, largely fuel costs. Utilizing GPS
tracking allows the lowest amount of supplemental
fuel costs by improving route navigation.
• Speeding, engine idling and travelling off route are all
examples of poor driving habits that can be
monitored and analyzed through GPS tracking.
• Correcting these unnecessary driving habits can
heavily reduce fuel costs, allowing businesses to
save thousands of dollars in travel cost. In-depth
alerts and reports can be sent to management for
precision based supervision.
Productive Workforce • Implementing GPS fleet tracking into your workforce
allows every employee to be more productive with
time and customer servicing. With fleet tracking, on-
site representatives and management are able to
communicate with the drivers in real-time. This
creates an improved workflow with more control and
easy route adjustment on the fly.
• A fleet utilizing GPS tracking increases response
time for the customer. Aside from being able to
modify routes due to unforeseen road obstacles or
traffic, GPS fleet management is a way to easily
coordinate service routes based on close proximity to
the customer.
• GPS tracking keeps your fleet safe. Instead of each
driver pre-planning their own routes, fleet tracking
allows your employees to focus on driving and
making it to their dispatched location.
Driver Benefits • There are ways to amplify productivity without
creating the additional expenses and training it takes
to bring on a new employee. GPS fleet tracking helps
keep your initial workforce while improving
productivity.
• Reduce fuel costs - Many commercial services
suffer from wasting money and fuel due to engine
idling. Using a GPS tracking device helps
management determine how long a vehicle spends
idle. Correcting engine idle time helps save money,
gas and reduces greenhouse emissions.
• Increase driver safety - GPS tracking assists in
driver safety by creating performance reports on
dangerous driving habits like speeding or abrupt
braking. Fleet management helps monitor unsafe
driving behavior and prevent accidents.
Customer Benefits • Improving customer service is crucial in a business'
goal of greater efficiency and productivity. Fleet
tracking helps management monitor inefficiencies on
a route, allowing for quick re-routing if needed. This
is extremely helpful when a situation arises at a customer site and immediate assistance is needed.
• Enhanced Customer Service - GPS tracking not
only helps management determine better routes for a
customer, but it also helps provide a more accurate
estimated time of arrival.
• Getting to your customer quickly and exceeding
service standards boosts your customer relationships
and in turn leads your business into growth
opportunities and trusted reputation.
Management Benefits • A GPS fleet tracking system assists management in
organizing and improving the ultimate goal of
improved customer service and productivity. Fleet
management is able to track every service vehicle
and their route, creating an extremely helpful safety
net for both customers and employees.
• Increased Service Control - Through using GPS
fleet tracking, management is able to track each
vehicle and better regulate service route workflow.
This helps increase service control and quality by
getting to customers quickly when needed.
• Improved monitoring - Many service companies
find it difficult to manage fleet proficiency. GPS
tracking helps management determine route
expenses and operations to find areas of
improvement or adjustment.
