Sounds good in theory but it could be a very expensive option, if you don’t have trust in an employee ask yourself why?  What you’re basing your lack of trust on, and where are you getting the information to not trust them any longer.

Dismissing an employee is a big deal, it can cost a lot of time and money and can open your company up to litigation if the ex-employee feels the need!

Our fleet management and GPS vehicle tracking system builds integrity into the trust you have with your employees.  It helps to retain the good employees longer and shows employers which people may need further training or guidance.  This tends to allow a stronger bond to be formed between the employer and employee.

On the other hand if you have trust in the wrong emplyee it can cost you a lot of money before that misplaced trust is exposed!

Contact Driver Watch Systems today to learn how you can build integrity into your trust for as little as $1.50/day!

The padding of overtime has been the hobby of many emplyees for years.  It is human nature to try and get a little extra here and there because it is thought to be only an innocent little clitch of a few numbers.  There are many ways that this can be accomplished, either by taking the long route, or by drivers starting their day late and ending it late and claiming overtime, or by taking long or excessive lunches and breaks, loafing off at job sites or making personal stops during the day.

These may seem innocent enough but they really add up and can cost a company a tremendous amount of money.  The fleet management and GPS tracking devices that Driver Watch Systems provides have the ability to help you stop these habits.  Thus they provide a huge savings in expenses and help to increase profits and efficiencies all day every day!

All of this for only $1.50/day, contact us for a free demonstration!

How much theft and unauthorized usage does your company experience in the course of one month?  Don’t know?  The answer may shock you.  The use of a company vehicle after hours or on the weekend, when not authorized, is stealing.  The driver is using their employers fuel and resources for their personal benefit.  It may be as innocent as driving to the grocery store or it could be to earn extra money on the side.  If they are using your van or truck they are probably using your tools, equipment, hardware and parts as well and that really adds up.

Think about the increase in risk as well, the more that vehicle is on the road the more its exposure to an accident or collision becomes.  Imagine dealing with an attorney because your company is being sued over a drivers lapse of judgment leading to an accident they caused while they were en route to a family picnic!  Better yet does your insurance company even cover after hours or weekend use?  Now is not the time to find out, either!

Unless your an airline, I don’t expect you’ll be buying fuel years in advance and locking in a low price!  So like the rest of us you have to deal with the highs and lows of the barrel of crude to determine the price for gas or diesel.  So what does a small business do to reduce their fuel cost?  Reduce their consumption!

The easiest and most effective way of reducing your consumption of fuel is to eliminate drivers taking incorrect routes, speeding, excessive engine idling and unauthorized usage.  All of these problems can be eliminated and managed through the use of the GPS vehicle tracking and fleet management system provide by Driver Watch Systems.

Our system has the ability to alert you or your staff by email or text message if a vehicle is being used during times it’s not supposed to be used, or when a driver has exceeded a set speed.  The extensive reports can be emailed that will highlight drivers who are driving too fast, or are idling for extensive time periods!  All will have a direct impact on the bottom line by saving your company money!  Remember all of this for only $1.50/day!

Every fleet no matter how well managed will have some sort of general inefficiencies that are just inherent in operating commercial vehicles.  Either a vehicle is not proceeding from point A to point B via the most direct route or the drivers are still manually logging mileage or time per stop.  One of the biggest inefficiencies in fleet operations is dispatching the incorrect vehicle to a job, such as the closest vehicle not being assigned the job.

Our fleet management and GPS vehicle tracking systems will allow your company to narrow these inefficiencies to the point of almost eliminating them.  Using the software provided by Driver Watch Systems you will have the ability to see where drivers are making unnecessary stops and thus inappropriately consuming time and fuel.  This system also is logging locations, mileage and times at all times, this system does not forget to log times or mileage and it never guesses!  One of the best features of this fleet management system is the “Show Nearest” feature which will show you all your vehicles in your fleet and their respective distances from a specified location, then all you need to do is use the “Route To…” feature that will send the location and directions directly to the vehicle for your drivers to follow.

All of this for less than $1.50/day! To learn more give Driver Watch Systems a call today!

GPS vehicle tracking has come a long way over the years.  In the beginning it was used to know where your vehicles were.  That’s pretty much it, that didn’t go over to well with the drivers and employees who were being watched.  Rightly so, especially if they have been with the company for years and work hard every day to promote the company they work for.

But today their is much more to it than just watching dots on a screen.  These systems have evolved into a true fleet management system used every day as a unique business tool.  Reports are run to calculate pay roll for employees, they are run to show how many miles your company has driven in a specific state.  Construction companies have the ability to run a report, at the conclusion of a job,  that shows how many times their trucks have arrived and departed a specific job site and how long they were on site.  This way true job costing can be easily proven with overwhelming accuracy.

Their is a lot to these systems, and aquiring a system like this for your comapny has never been easier and never been so inexpensice.  Especially when you are able to prove how much time and money is saved by the use of a system provided by Driver Watch Systems.  Contact use today to learn more.

It has occurred to me that most people don’t realize how beneficial GPS Vehicle Tracking and Fleet Management can be.  After talking with others, who have never even imagined using a GPS tracking system, you get the feeling that now they understand and their new found knowledge becomes power.

Many fleet owners and managers are learning how beneficial it can be to have the ability to invoice a job from an automated system that will show exact times, or the tax benefits of being able to show exact miles driven in other states or exact engine times from vehicles preforming their duties off road.

The benefits are many and when used as a business tool the systems provided by Driver Watch Systems will save your company money, period.  Call on us today for a free consultation.
