The Benefits of Vehicle Tracking
Adding vehicle tracking to your fleet is more than just knowing where your drivers are at any given moment during the workday. When you add vehicle tracking to your fleet, you unlock the ability to strengthen driver efficiency, fleet safety, and cost-effective savings. We know that your business is important to you. That is why we want to highlight all the benefits that exist when you incorporate a vehicle tracking system into your current fleet management operations.
How a Vehicle Tracking System Benefits Your Fleet
When you decide that the time has come to integrate your fleet with a GPS tracking system, you will find that your business begins to thrive more than it did before. As a small fleet owner/manager, you spend a large part of your time monitoring your fleet. When you install Fleetr into your vehicle, it reduces the amount of time you spend monitoring and allows you to spend more time focused on the business.
Real-Time Fleet Visibility
Using GPS fleet monitoring gives you the real-time status and location of your fleet vehicles. This vital data can allow you to make changes in real-time to improve and enhance fleet performance. If you dispatch drivers to emergency calls, the real-time location can help you determine which vehicle is closest to the call location.
Encourage Driver Safety
Managing your fleet is not just about the vehicle but also about your drivers. When drivers use risky driving behavior, they are putting themselves in danger and everyone around them. Fleetr monitors the driving behaviors and sends push notification alerts when serious infractions occur, letting you handle the situation before it gets out of hand.
Increase Fuel Efficiency
Fuel efficiency is something every fleet owner struggles with. Fleetr gives small fleet owners and managers, like yourself, the tips they need to make necessary changes for better fuel efficiency. Weekly reports provide insight into what changes can be made to enhance performance. These tips can save your fleet hundreds of dollars per year on fuel.
Keep Up on Maintenance
Depending on the size of your fleet, keeping up with the maintenance might be a headache. Keeping track of mileage so that oil changes and tire rotations are done at the right time can be a job in itself. Vehicle tracking can help you manage the miles your fleet drives, notifying you when it is time for a vehicle service call. Vehicles that are properly maintained have a longer lifespan than those that miss crucial tuneups.
Improved Reporting
Using vehicle tracking creates better reporting by using data-driven information from the units themselves. Real-time information is translated into real-time reporting, which is more efficient than using hand-written mileages and driver accounts. Fleetr produces weekly reports for small fleet owners, giving them the insight they need on fuel savings, productivity, driver safety, and overall fleet efficiency. The information is compiled from a week’s worth of driving information (Sunday through Saturday). It assigns a score rating to each category. A score of 67 or higher means that the fleet/driver is efficient. However, any score below 33 needs immediate attention.
Vehicle Tracking Systems Increase Accountability
Accountability doesn’t always just pertain to the drivers of your fleet. Your accountability is also important. It is easy to overlook areas in our business when we are overwhelmed with others. Sometimes issues that should be addressed early on aren’t tended to because your focus is elsewhere.
The data doesn’t lie when you use a GPS tracking system for fleet management. Not only are your drivers required to pay more attention to their actions, but reporting makes you responsible for addressing the behaviors that could ultimately cost your business.
You Need GPS Tracking For Your Fleet
It may seem presumptuous for us to tell you that you need GPS tracking for your fleet, but is it? It is likely that you have thought about integrating a tracking system within your fleet before but wasn’t sure if the cost was worth it. As a general rule, most of the companies that provide fleet tracking provide larger discounts for higher fleet numbers, which doesn’t help you and your small fleet.
What if I told you that there was a way for you to monitor your fleet effectively, and it practically pays for itself?

Fleet Vehicle Tracking Benefits YOU
When it comes to a vehicle tracking system for your fleet, the common denominator is how it benefits you and your business.
