What is GPS Tracking and How Can it Benefit your Business?
The Global Positioning System (GPS) uses a number of low orbit satellites to triangulate the precise location of an asset and this technology is used in many industries, especially logistics. A company with a large fleet of delivery vehicles can really benefit from using a state-of-the-art GPS tracking system, and with that in mind, here are some of the features you can enjoy when you install a GPS tracking system.
Asset tracking
Your commercial vehicles are prime assets that should be tracked at all times. Transport managers have become accustomed to not knowing where their fleet is at any given time. Some would have radio contact with the drivers, yet with a vehicle GPS tracker system, you can track all vehicles in real-time. The system runs on a 4G platform and is extremely accurate; making it ideal for all transport hubs; there is no limit to the number of vehicles that can be tracked.
Measuring driver inputs
We now have the technology to measure driver inputs, namely brake, acceleration and steering. Of course, it is easy for a driver to pick up bad habits; driving too close to the vehicle in front, overtaking where you should not, to name but a few. If you have this data, AI managed software can carry out data analysis and help the driver to correct negative driving behaviour.
AI-managed dash cams
Installing state-of-the-art dash cams on all your vehicles will eliminate any doubt in the event of an accident or incident; impact sensors notify you in the event the vehicle collides with anything. Here are a few important considerations if you are planning a business expansion.
Route planning
One of the toughest job for any transport manager, calculating the most economical route for each truck can take a long time and you never really know if there was a better way. That all ends with state-of-the-art fleet management software; the software quickly works out the best way to fulfil all deliveries and collections, leaving you free to do other things.
Real-time notifications
You can set up real-time notifications for any of your fleet; you might want a driver to contact you when they reach a certain destination, which can be done from your user interface. There are many powerful features, the system is designed around commercial fleet management, boosting efficiency and keeping running costs down.
Unauthorised vehicle use
Ask any transport manager if their vehicles are ever used for ‘other things’ and they’ll raise an eyebrow or two. You can, however, stop all that when you install a GPS tracking system that monitors all vehicles 24/7. This allows you, the transport manager, to keep your finger on the pulse, so to speak.
