Where can I expect to see improvement when using Fleet
Tracking?
It can vary by how the system is used, fleet policies and
management. If the company leaders are unwilling to use the
data to make decisions, hold drivers accountable, or improve
operational flaws once spotted using this tool.
ROI requires a commitment to improvements, policies to
support the program and the strength of management to
enforce the policies.
The most common areas of improvement include:
-
Reduced fuel expenses resulting from many different
reasons.
-
Fewer accidents / Lower insurance rates & increased
discounts.
- Improved employee productivity.
-
Cut down on regular and overtime wages for the same
amount or more work.
-
Improved maintenance costs with fewer miles, wear and
tear and maintenance expenditure.
-
Faster and more efficient dispatching. Quicker time to
respond to customers' calls. More jobs and happier
clients.
GPS tracking can significantly impact workers' comp claims
and other insurance expenses with less speeding, fewer
miles, much less personal miles, and more attention given to
driving.
Bringing up "GPS tracking" in the hiring process can scare
off potential employees who may not work a full day once in
the field.
You can also hire better employees and retain the "best of
the best" long-term. By saving with GPS and not having
unproductive employees, you can pay more for top- notch
employees while still paying less than you would before GPS,
giving you the edge up on your competition.
It is more of an asset than just some business expense or
"cost."
