Reducing carbon footprint in the drive towards greater energy efficiency is now paramount in our everyday working lives. Multi tasking technology such as GPS vehicle tracking, which lends versatile assistance in the universal effort is a valuable asset. Nowhere is this more relevant than in fleet and commercial vehicle based businesses.
Mobile Resource Management (MRM) solutions find applications in different areas. MRM solutions integrates latest technologies like Global Positioning System (GPS), two way wireless communications and mobile phone tracking. Crucial to decision making and managing workforce resources, operational and fuel costs are reduced and emissions significantly cut, using realtime vehicle tracking.
Using a selected fleet GPS tracking module interactive maps can be viewed online to enable a company to see where it loses money, time and wastes fuel, such as on duplicated journeys. Using a web browser, vehicle locations can be reported every 20 seconds, displaying mileage and live traffic information, providing the vital data to cut costs of between 10 and 20 per cent.
In addition, organisations whose ultimate ‘green’ goal, like so many other businesses, is to 'go paperless', can use PDA's or mobile computers to manage workflow and information exchange. Thus, former time consuming delays caused by paperwork processing can be avoided and customer signature captured electronically and transmitted to the office for the ultimate proof of work or delivery completed.
Details of all jobs, which can include job reference, start time, end time, anticipated work time, description and location - can all be viewed on screen and all current and future jobs assigned to a vehicle can be viewed on a map and via live dynamic timesheets.
In the fiercely competitive world of ontime delivery, a growing number of organisations need to know where their resources are in relation to their jobs and how the business is performing against planned schedules. Using the right vehicle tracking solution, organisations can respond dynamically as events unfold and to identify further opportunities to improve planning and productivity.
