Commercial Vehicle Tracking
For companies who operate fleets of commercial vehicles, having access to real time information on the exact whereabouts of drivers is invaluable. This is particularly apparent for companies who transport specialist cargo, or goods which have to be kept at a certain temperature
The following explains the many ways which commercial vehicle tracking can help your organisation to improve the performance of its fleet.
Tracking for all types of commercial vehicles
Whether you operate a fleet of trucks, vans, lorries or coaches, we have a commercial vehicle tracking solution for you. All of our systems are bespoke and can be tailored to the exact requirements of your organisation for the effective monitoring of your vehicles and their cargo.
How does it work?
Commercial vehicle tracking involves placing covert tracking devices inside your vehicles. These relay information using GPS (Global Positioning System) technology about your vehicle's location, as well as information such as driving habits and the conditions inside trailers. This information can be easily accessed, from anywhere in the world via an internet browser.
Saving fuel and reducing maintenance costs
By allowing you to constantly monitor the driving practices of your vehicles you can curb bad habits such as speeding and excessive breaking which will not only make your fleet more fuel efficient, it will also help you to cut back on vehicle maintenance.
Automating administration
Commercial vehicle tracking allows you to reduce the burden of administration by automating manual processes such as mileage sheets and expense forms. This will free up time for staff to concentrate on other work tasks.
Improving vehicle scheduling
Being able to see exactly where your vehicles are at all times means that you can improve vehicle scheduling and reduce vehicle standing times. This will allow you to ensure that your organisation runs more efficiently and productively.
Compliance
Under Government 'Duty of Care' guidelines, fleet bosses have a responsibility to ensure that all of their vehicles are fit for purpose and that drivers are not exposed to any unnecessary risk. Commercial vehicle tracking will allow you to do this effectively.
Cold chain tracking
Under EU regulations (EN 12830:1999) all businesses which transport refrigerated cargo are required, by law, to monitor its exact temperature at all stages in the delivery process. Using the latest ZigBee wireless technology, our ColdTrak system enables cold chain businesses to comply with these regulations and notifies users immediately if the temperature inside a trailer changes, so they can take immediate action and avoid the spoilage of goods.
