Fleet Tracking Systems

Fleet tracking systems are designed for businesses who operate a fleet of any number or any type of vehicles.  They use a ‘black box’ fitted securely within the vehicle to provide up to the minute information on where each vehicle is, what it is doing and even how fast it is travelling. As well as live tracking information and reports modern tracking systems can also provide feedback on the driver’s performance including hard driving and unauthorised activities, which is why they can deliver very fast return on investment.

Fleet tracking systems can be installed into any vehicle and almost all of them offer live tracking and histroic reporting although there are tracking solutions that have been developed specifically for certain vehicle types and business sectors which offer niche features. Usually tracking systems only require 3 wires to be connected to the vehicle however most solutions offer additional add-on features which can include temperature monitoring, driver panic buttons, integrated satellite navigation, live traffic information and driver identification to name a few.

Stolen Vehicle Tracking

Also known as anti theft or insurance approved tracking, stolen vehicle tracking is an affordable way to greatly increase the protection of your vehicle against theft. Endorsed by many of the UK’s vehicle insurers by way of premium discounts, stolen vehicle tracking is increasingly becoming a requirement of insurance providers for insuring high value vehicles.

When buying a stolen vehicle tracking system it should be ‘Thatcham Approved’. Before purchasing check with your insurer that the make and model of tracking system you are considering is on their list of approved systems as they will not be able to offer premium discounts or even provide cover if it is not.

A stolen vehicle tracking system requires a tracking device to be installed into a vehicle that when activated, through automatic detection or when the vehicle is reported stolen, will monitor the vehicles movements. The provider of the tracking system will act immediately and liaise with Police forces to ensure that the stolen vehicle is recovered ASAP.

Stolen vehicle tracking systems usually require an upfront payment for the hardware and installation to the vehicle followed by a monthly fee for monitoring the vehicle.

Plant Tracking Systems

Plant Tracking is a system that has been specifically designed to monitor and protect plant vehicles and machinery. These systems allow businesses to monitor the locations and activity of their plant vehicles and generate reports that provide feedback on usage. Unfortunately, theft of plant equipment is a big problem for companies in the UK and installing a plant tracking system greatly increases the security of these assets. Plant tracking systems allow virtual boundaries to be set so that is an asset is tampered with or moves outside the boundaries an alert is raised in the form of email or SMS message.

Plant tracking has also been a big success with companies that hire out plant machinery. Using plant tracking to monitor customer usage ensures that customers can be invoiced for non-authorised use and optional extras such as remote immobilisation, allowing businesses to prevent the vehicle being operated if used outside of the agreed terms.

Lone Worker Tracking

Lone Worker Tracking systems are a range of solutions that are focused on protecting employees working outside of company premises and provide employers with greater visibility over their mobile workers. Lone worker tracking systems help business to fulfil their Health & Safety and Duty Of Care obligations as well as providing peace of mind to the employees themselves. Many lone worker tracking devices allow employees to raise a discreet alarm, to either a manned monitoring station or their company’s office, should they be in danger and in need of urgent assistance.

For added protection some tracking devices also include automated ‘man down’ alerts or status updates which require the employee to confirm their status at specified intervals, providing peace of mind for the employer and protection for the lone worker.

The devices themselves are available in the form of a small device that can be carried in a pocket or worn on the wrist; ruggedized mobile phones, identity badges or a software application that can be downloaded to a GPS enabled mobile phone.
