The challenge
The company ran about 2,000 trucks but could not see where they were or how they were driven. Fuel was its largest cost after salaries, and fuel theft and idling were suspected but unproven.
Customers asked for live delivery updates the company could not provide.
Our approach
Fit telematics
GPS and engine data devices were installed across the fleet.
Build the fleet platform
Location, fuel, idling and driving events feed one live dashboard.
Coach drivers
Driver scorecards highlight harsh braking, speeding and idling, linked to incentives.
Share tracking
Customers receive live ETAs and delivery confirmations.
The solution
Fleet managers see every vehicle on a live map, along with fuel use and driver behaviour. Unusual fuel drops and long idling are flagged automatically.
Customers track their deliveries in real time, and route plans use actual travel data.
