Reasons Why Real-Time Tracking Benefits Your Fleet

When you are managing your fleet, there are a lot of things that you should be aware of at any given moment. You can just be okay with regular GPS tracking, but you will find that real-time GPS tracking can be incredibly beneficial to your business. Not only does this make managing your fleet a lot easier, it gives you the most up-to-date information about your fleet whenever you need it. This will take a look at just some of the many benefits of having a real-time tracking system for your fleet.

Reduces Risk of Theft

Typical GPS trackers may give an estimate about where vehicles are located but they won’t be nearly as accurate as real-time tracking is. With the ability of knowing exactly where your fleet and its cargo is at all times, you are better able to prevent issues like theft. There are settings, especially with a tracker with geofencing or other types of notification systems, where you can get an alert if a truck leaves your site outside of working hours. If you suspect theft of your vehicle and/or the cargo inside of it, then you will be able to contact the authorities with this real-time tracking information so that you can ensure swift recovery of your truck.

Reducing theft of your cargo not only reduces a lot of stress on you, but it can also be a major cost savings for you. Devices like this can reduce your insurance costs, saving you money in replacing the vehicle, and you won’t risk losing business from customers who are afraid to have their items stolen.

Better Manage Your Drivers

Real-time tracking gives you a better view of your drivers. Dispatching the drivers that you need when you need them and organizing them can be a very stressful part of your job, especially when you don’t have the complete picture of what’s going on. This can be great for your fleet of delivery drivers but this can be especially useful if you have to track a fleet of transportation vehicles like limos or taxis. When you can increase how efficiently you can dispatch vehicles where they need to be, you can increase your profits while decreasing your stress levels.

Real-Time Information for Customers

GPS trackers can give your customers a good ETA of when they can expect their shipment or a driver to come pick them up. However, the more accurate the ETA, the happier your customers will be. You can offer your customers real-time information so that they can know a better estimate of when to expect their driver or shipment. This allows your customers to better plan their day and help them know if something happened to their shipment.

Hours of Service Tracking (HOS)

Since it is mandated to electronically track your driver’s HOS, a real-time GPS tracker can help you ensure that you are not in violation of any laws. You can see how long your drivers have been driving, when they take their breaks, and how many hours are left until the end of their driving period. This information can also help you better plan the routes of your drivers to optimize your efficiency and prevent any violations. Violations can be costly and potentially harm your business, so having a way to better track this can be the best approach to staying in compliance with these laws.

Conclusion

Getting the right trackers for your fleet can be extremely beneficial to your business and how it operates. Real-time trackers can be especially beneficial, no matter what your business is. Your business is only as strong as the tools you use to help make operations more efficient.
