Benefits of fleet management
Once the devices are attached to your vehicles, you have the option to receive automatic SMS and email reminders if the status of a vehicle changes inappropriately. For example, you can define a physical area you want the vehicle to stay within. If the vehicle is moved outside this area, you will be notified. In addition, you can, for example, get a reminder if a country border is crossed.
On PC, tablet and smartphone, you can view a map of the whole of Europe showing the location of your vehicles. Everything is stored for 12 months on the server.
Main elements of the fleet management solution:
- - Historical GPS position data in the form of reports and tracks on maps
- - Real-time GPS position data, visualized on fleet management platform
- - Historical and real-time information on temperatures and reading of other external sensors.
- - Setting up various alarms
- - Possibility to set up Geo-fence and receive notifications when moving inside and outside these zones.
- - Reading FMS data, including fuel consumption
- - Connection to cooling machines and door switches
- - Monitoring of equipment service intervals
Total solution with fleet management and tacho download
There are several different devices, all of which can be connected to the system together. If you want GPS devices for vehicles or machines without tachographs, you need a smaller device, whereas if you want the device to work on your fleet management system and download tachograph files at the same time, you need a different box. If you already have our boxes for tacho download in your vehicles, we can upgrade the sim card to include TachoFleet for a small monthly fee.
Optimal fleet management in vehicles with tachographs includes
Task management
Task management that ensures the right unit with the right driver with the necessary remaining driving time and the right skills for the task.
Monitoring
Monitoring of the transportation itself, ensuring that the task is completed within the agreed timeframe and under the conditions requested by the customer.
Anti theft
The GPS tracker will send an email and/or text message if something unexpected happens and helps find stolen or lost assets.
TachoFleet creates an overview and provides the necessary fleet management tools to make the right decisions.
It provides insight into the business and is the foundation for efficient business operations.
Good driving behaviour provides savings on fleet operations, minimises the risk of accidents and protects the environment. The fleet management system helps to achieve these goals. By reading the truck's CAN Bus, the fleet owner receives important information about the driving and driving behaviour. Information is retrieved on sharp turns, hard braking, how much fuel has been used, how much the driver has used cruise control and idling.
Using an algorithm, it can also be concluded whether the car is driven aggressively or sensibly. Sensible driving is both cost-saving and damage-limiting. At the same time, the truck and trailer are not worn unnecessarily.
The fleet management solution gives you a visual overview of the results from data extracts and analyses of driving behaviour. It gives you a clear overview of the entire fleet's driving behaviour across all drivers and all trucks.
By sharing this information with the drivers, an awareness is created of how each individual can contribute to optimising fleet operations. At the same time, it can influence the behaviour of the driver.
An increased focus on driving behaviour can be the start of a different collaboration with the drivers. And it can also ensure better conditions with the insurance companies.
We also work with other fleet management systems that pass on tachograph data to us. See the list here:
Secure documentation with GPS tracking of vehicles
The GPS tracker is mounted on the vehicle and connected to TachoFleet.
The system provides a quick overview of:
- Real-time monitoring of GPS devices
- Movement and position history
- Addresses, direction, and speed
- Tracks and addresses visited
- Temperature monitoring
- Enabling and Disabling Ports
- Delimitation via groupings
The system allows for full utilization of vehicles, as you can easily direct the vehicles to different tasks.
At the same time, it ensures full documentation for customers and authorities if necessary.
FAQ: Fleet Management
Fleet management is a general term for managing a company's fleet of cars, trucks, vans, etc. This involves the use of technologies such as GPS, sensors, and communication systems to collect and analyze data related to vehicles and their performance. These tools work in harmony to deliver accurate and immediate real-time insights, enabling businesses to make informed decisions and optimize their fleet operations.
The purpose of fleet management is to increase efficiency, reduce costs, and improve the overall performance of the fleet.
A fleet management system is a system that allows you to manage your fleet and gain an overview of the operation of vehicles, machines, etc. A fleet management system consists of hardware and software that together make up the entire solution. GPS units (hardware) are physically installed in the vehicles, while you log in to the software with login credentials.
With a fleet management system, you gain access to vehicle data that can help optimize work processes, create a better flow, and ultimately help create growth.
