Anti Theft & Fleet Tracking Systems

Vehicle tracking can fit into two different categories; insurance approved/anti theft and fleet. GPS technology, which is run by the United States Military, is used for both to calculate, accurately, the location of a vehicle. Although GPS based, both types of tracking system suit completely different customer requirements.

Anti-theft tracking systems are often required to be installed by insurance providers, especially if you have a ‘high end’ vehicle, such as a sports car. The tracking supplier will liaise with Police if a vehicle is stolen so that it can be recovered as soon as possible. This saves money for individuals because their vehicle is less likely to be damaged, and for companies it also saves money because the drivers are back on the road quicker. A fee is usually paid to the tracking supplier upfront and then the rest of the balance is paid in monthly instalments.

Fleet tracking systems are designed to provide the best value for money to businesses that have a number of vehicles. Customers can see an internet based representation of where their drivers are, in real time. This can help with journey planning, and can reduce operational costs, allowing companies to make enough savings to cover the cost of running the tracking system.
