Industrial News

The initial issue of GPS Tracking Insights & Info addresses the impact of rising fuel costs at a time when many service vehicles are at their busiest. In the newsletter, Navtrak offers several tips and a case study that illustrates how GPS tracking technology can reduce unnecessary fuel costs and vehicle usage, as more and more service companies and business of all types with vehicles on the road understand the value of real-time information.

Also in the first issue is data from a recent study from the Aberdeen Group, a widely respected research firm, that shows how more than half of the companies that invest in GPS tracking technology do so to reduce fleet fuel and maintenance costs.

Specifically, the Aberdeen report details key aspects of a fleet's performance that can be monitored and improved using fleet management tools from companies such as Navtrak:

Engine idling hours for each vehicle
Routes taken by every driver, every trip
Stops and side trips both on- and off-hours
Location and status of closest vehicle to job sites and service calls
Maintenance records and schedules for each vehicle
