We love to hear examples of companies saving time and money through the use of GPS vehicle tracking.  So when we hear these examples we pass them along to you.

Here is yet another success story of a company using a Navman Wireless system:

Courier and haulage specialist Sprintshift has dramatically reduced overtime and increased backloads after introducing vehicle tracking to its vehicle fleet.

Before employing the use of the technology, Sprintshift, which has a fleet of more than 25 vehicles, used a time-sheet-based administration system for processing overtime and driver hours.

However, a vehicle tracking system has enabled it to reduce time-sheet errors and false entries, time wastage between routes and increase fleet optimization.

Justin Hayes, Sprintshift transport manager, said: “Our drivers finish their working days at different times and some will often not return to the office until 6.30pm, when all office-based staff have gone.

“Consequently, they can claim to have finished at 7.30pm and gain an extra hour.

“Now I can check these times against vehicles movements.

“We can also monitor their vehicles’ movements for the entire working day and can see if they have parked up for longer than they should.

“If drivers haven’t got valid reasons for stopping for protracted periods of time, we then cut costs by deducting this from their wages.”

The tracking system has been provided by Navman Wireless.

Robert Johnson of the National Truck Equipment Association, recently highlighted five steps to get more work out of your work trucks.

• Right Sizing – Make sure your using the right sized vehicle for the job needing to be completed.  Learn to properly match your truck to your application before buying another vehicle.
• Route Optimization – Be certain to review routes driven by your drivers, just because they drive the route regularly doesn’t mean it’s the most cost efficient route.
• Truck Body and Equipment Designs – Equipment and accessories for your vehicles are being designed and redesigned all of the time.  These products are there to help you be more productive but you have to do your research to be certain you’re using the correct product for your work.
• Reducing Stationary Fuel Consumption – You have calculated how much it costs your company to complete a job, and you price accordingly.  So when your company consumes more fuel than required to complete it’s task it is costing your company money.  A gallon here and a gallon there and your company begins losing a lot of money very quickly.
• Beyond the Truck – Anything that can help your company become more productive will have a drastic  effect on the bottom line, you will see a return on the investment in these products.  The use of GPS tracking can significantly increase productivity.

Driver Watch Systems help you practice four out of the five steps.  With our low cost option for your next GPS vehicle tracking system you will see an increase in efficiency and a decrease in expenses, all of this equals a huge return on investment.

Their are many types of GPS tracking systems available these days, and for the most part they all do basically the same thing.  Just like TVs or cell phones they are set apart by their varying differences, but hey lets be honest they all track vehicles.  The differences, as you will learn, is in the details!

The details of a system is where companies, smart enough to employ these systems, begin to save money.  That’s where Driver Watch Systems sets themselves apart (if we do say so ourselves!), when we sit down with a person inquiring about our services and products we begin each meeting by first ask about their fleet.  We want to know how it’s used on a daily, weekly, or even yearly basis so that we can inform our customers on the options they will need, not on the options we want to sell.

If your company visits the same locations ever week, over and over, do you really need navigation as a part of your tracking system?  Ah… no!  If your company never leaves a 14 mile radius, do really need a 1 minute update rate?  Ah… probably.

Their is a lot to consider when making this investment, so make sure your sales person is listening and trying to put a system together for your needs, not theirs.
