According to the National Academy of Sciences(US), the current worldwide market for Global Positioning Systems (GPS) receiver technology is estimated at more than £1 billion and is expected to grow to more than £15 billion during the next 10 years.
The increasing economic importance of implementing real-time vehicle tracking as part of a commercial company’s mobile resource management policy can now be viewed as essential for comprehensive operational control, remote driver security and fuel savings.
Businesses running fleet are under constant pressure to deliver goods and services on time, operating more efficiently and keeping costs down, most notably fuel overheads. Up to the minute location reporting is now crucial to maintaining competitive edge and implementing schedule changes as and when they occur with the minimum of disruption to other concurrent operations.
Installing a GPS vehicle tracking unit into fleet transport captures vital vehicle activity data automatically and independently of any driver input, including location and timing. The data is remotely transmitted to their web application system, via the GPRS network, where it may be accessed by a fleet director, managers and users to support urgent, on the spot decision-making and operational control.
Providing a vehicle tracking solution is proven to significantly contribute to the success of businesses through added value benefits of :
Strategic decision making.
Compliance with legislation.
Enhanced operational control.
Considerable cost reduction.
A mobile workforce tracking system is fully modular and scalable, and because it uses real time GPS, it is designed to produce a more effective and profitable management of a mobile service workforce. Access to real-time information not only improves operational control it provides essential remote worker security, which can all be reviewed with configurable reports.
From off the shelf vehicle tracking systems to more complex solutions, workflow systems can be seamlessly integrated with routing and scheduling software, payroll systems and other back-office operations. A highly scalable service can be developed at a time and pace that meets both business requirements and budget.
In the fast, service-on-demand approach of modern transportation and logistics, providing visibility to mobile workforce activity is essential and fleet tracking will identify, measure and target specific areas where improvements may be made to operational cost and productivity, especially in the current economic climate.
