The GPS tracking devices are installed in fleet vehicles to monitor driving events and ensure that drivers are complying with and operating under strict safety standards.
Reduces transportation costs – There is much more to transportation operational costs than simple fuel consumption. The less fuel that is consumed translates into savings in fuel and, hence, money saved. The comprehensive, real-time reporting facilitated by the vehicles management software includes vehicle mileage, vehicle maintenance status, route efficiency, traffic, road and climate conditions, driver’s driving habits and performance, and much more. Armed with this information, the fleet manager can easily and quickly make crucial decisions that impact customer satisfaction – all within economic cost-cutting methodologies.

A comprehensive vehicles management system not only records the geographic position of the fleet vehicle, but also reports speed, direction, fuel usage, and much more. All of these measures are important in improving the vehicle’s efficiency and increasing the lifetime of the vehicle.
