5 Reasons Why You Need a Fleet Management GPS Tracking System
Although in some European countries the use of fleet management systems exceeds 33%, in Chile this percentage remains low.
We have observed that there is local ignorance of the new tools and resources offered by fleet management technology and its impact on the business. How can it help to improve the operation of my company? What is its real cost compared to the savings it allows? Is it simple to install and easy to use? Is it useful for any size of fleet or company?
In this article, Concox will give the reasons why it is worthwhile to change from a manual to a digital vehicle management system.
① Automation of work in the office: automate tasks is the best way to avoid human errors. For example, you can automate vehicle maintenance tasks, you can automatically download and store tachograph data, etc.
② Real-time location of vehicles: automatically, without needing to call the driver to know his situation. Fleet management technology allows you to see on a map, in real-time, the exact location of the vehicles.
③ Supervision and correction of driving behavior with real data: it is possible to know how the vehicles are being driven, with real data on the driving style, based on the detection of sudden maneuvers, braking, excessive speed or idle time. In this way, training programs can be established to improve the fleet's driving style and take advantage of responsible driving: fuel savings, reduced vehicle wear, emission reduction and improved safety. The most modern solutions even offer real-time advice to drivers.
④ Choose the most appropriate route: the driver can have access at all times to the best routes to reach the destination, with real-time traffic information, in order to avoid congestion and
always arrive on time. The manager, on the other hand, may plan the best routes in advance, taking into account, for example, the size and weight of the vehicle or the stops that must be made during the tour. This not only reduces mileage and associated costs but ensures customer satisfaction.
⑤ Integration with other back-office systems: Modern fleet management systems allow seamless integration with the technological systems available to the client, such as CRM, billing, etc. And you can even develop custom applications for drivers, in order to improve their day-to-day work.
