What Are The Benefits To Tracking?

There are a multitude of benefits to having a vehicle tracking system installed into your fleet. The fleet could consist of anything from one to one thousand vehicles and they will still benefit from many of the feature rich tracking systems that are now on the market. With so many benefits, do we really know what they are other than the most highlighted one which is reduction of fuel consumption? Probably no and therefore below is a list of just a few more of the benefits tracking can bring to fleets around the world. These begin to help you foresee a more productive and efficient working environment.

• Fuel bills slashed by more than 10% (as stated this is generally the most highlighted of benefits)
• The elimination of private use and unauthorised journeys and stops
• Timesheet management (to ensure employees claim only for the hours they have worked)
• Monitoring of routes taken and time spent idling (incorrect routes and excessive idle times can all add to extra costs to the business)
• Traffic alerts and Driver alerts (could be roadwork’s or areas of congestion or if the driver is exceeding a regulated speed limit)
• Reduced insurance premiums
• Real time location (meaning response times to emergency call outs are much quicker)
• Health & Safety Regulation compliance
• Fleet efficiency and productivity is increased
• Drive ID (clock when each driver starts and finishes)
• Historical reporting facilities on a wide range of data
