Navtrak: Service Company Stays Ahead Of The Competition With GPS Fleet Management
65-Year Old Family-Owned And Operated Fuel Delivery/HVAC Service Company Gets Proactive and Invests In GPS Fleet Management Service.
Salisbury, MD (PRWEB) November 12, 2007 -- When Ralph Adams and his colleagues at Parker Fuel first started thinking about GPS tracking for their HVAC/Oil Heat service fleet, they saw it as an obvious way to save money. But as they were researching GPS systems, they discovered other trends at work in the home heating and cooling industry that pointed towards GPS as a smart business decision.
Adams surveyed the available GPS fleet management service providers, and chose Navtrak, even though he admits there are many lower-cost providers. "Navtrak wasn't the cheapest system we looked at, but it was definitely the best fit for our needs," Adams said. "We thought, if we're going to do this, let's make sure we do it right. Well, it's exceeded even our highest expectations for what a GPS system can do. It's been well worth every penny."
Adams then deployed Navtrak to address his critical business challenges, which included too much time spent locating drivers, unnecessary overtime payments, vehicle security, wasted time due to outdated work processes and governmental regulations.
The results, according to Adams, have been overwhelmingly positive. Navtrak has resolved his issues, and delivered some unexpected benefits as well - most notably improved morale from his drivers. "Once they got used to it, the drivers have been happy with the system. It saves them paperwork and time, and they like that. And they know it's helping us to stay successful. Most of our guys had nothing to hide anyway, so it wasn't a problem for them. But the benefits, everyone receives."
