How to choose GPS monitoring for your fleet?

As we mentioned earlier, GPS monitoring is massively used by the largest fleets. Why? Because corporations know that thanks to it you can save a lot on fuel, maintenance and repairs, and in addition, you can not only control, but also support employees. For example, giving them directions to avoid traffic jams.

GPS monitoring is a solution that can be used not only in car parks. It is also an idea for savings and control over equipment, for example in construction companies.

What are your GPS monitoring needs? What do you expect?

  • The main functions of GPS monitoring include the ability to effectively protect vehicles from theft and track them. You always know where your employees are at the moment.
  • You can check the routes and see if your employee stopped for half an hour during work or added several kilometers to the road.
  • In more advanced solutions, you can control the speed at which your employee travels, whether he arrived at the company with the goods on time, and what condition the vehicle is in. Modern GPS monitoring systems send you information about malfunctions (detected by the GPS on-board diagnostic system), as well as reminders of oil and other services.
  • If you have construction or other machinery, you certainly don't want your employees to perform so-called gigs. You pay for fuel and for the repair of your equipment.
  • With the latest systems, you can control your employees' fuel cards and block them for any unauthorized use.
  • Each system offers you an option to protect your car (the most effective one currently available) from theft. Regardless of whether it is a delivery vehicle, a truck, a semi-trailer with goods or a construction vehicle.

A company that offers home delivery of food has different needs. Another company that sends sellers after buyers. In this case, it is impossible to accurately predict and plan working time.

But in the case of a logistics or manufacturing company, everything should work like clockwork. Slippage in transport can cause an accident and large losses. Empty transport leads to unnecessary wear and tear on vehicles and fuel.

Modern GPS monitoring systems also make it possible to eliminate unsuitable people. They drive aggressively, do not respect the entrusted equipment, violate the rules of the road.

The most simple, basic functions or a ready-made system that can be expanded?

Before making a choice, check what a particular GPS monitoring company offers. Check the costs and the possibility of expanding the system with new functions in the future. You certainly assume the development of your company in the future. Therefore, your GPS monitoring should also evolve with it and offer new solutions that can be easily implied.

Remember that GPS-monitoring can save 20-30 percent of fuel. And this already justifies its installation and the cost of paying for it. Request presentations of all monitoring features and consider whether and how you can use them in your company.
