Increase your vehicle’s security using fleet tracking

Many people are now familiar with anti-theft tracking systems as they are becoming more commonly required to qualify for insurance in ‘high end’ vehicles. Fleet tracking also increases vehicle security, which is recognised by many insurance companies who are able to offer premium discounts to those companies that have a fleet tracking system installed.

Vehicle theft can cost companies a lot of money. Not only do they have to meet the cost of the vehicle repairs or replacement but also suffer the cost of their employee being off the road and not with customers. In addition claiming against insurance policies has a negative effect on the premiums.

Fleet tracking is primarily a solution that helps companies to manage their fleet, fuel and expenses costs. Vehicle tracking constantly monitors a vehicle’s movements 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. A key benefit is that should a vehicle be stolen the fleet tracking system can be used to coordinate the recovery of the vehicle; being able to recover a vehicle in less time may help lessen the damage to the vehicle.

For companies whose fleet only operate during certain hours of the day an alert can be setup that can immediately notify when a vehicle is moving outside of these hours. These alerts can be delivered in a variety of ways including emails and text messages.
