If someone were to ask you where a specific vehicle in your fleet is right this moment, would you have the answer? What if they asked you how fast that vehicle was traveling last Thursday? Do you know? If you don’t know, a mobile workforce management solution can make sure you have those answers, and more. Here is a useful demo that shows you how this technology puts Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL/GPS), vehicle telematics, driver behavior monitoring, reporting and maintenance capabilities at your fingertips to help streamline operations and increase efficiency.

Isolation is a major safety challenge facing mobile workers. During an emergency, a driver may be alone in the vehicle, incapacitated, and unable to communicate with dispatch through voice or text messages. Installing an emergency switch in your vehicles enables the driver to simply hit a button to alert dispatchers or the police to an issue. GPS/AVL can be used to instantly locate the vehicle in trouble and send help.
When 40% of workplace fatalities result from fleet safety issues, ensuring that effective safety measures are in place is essential. Here is a six-part series outlining ways in which technology can contribute to a safer work environment.
Technology #1: Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL)
Using Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) technology, dispatchers and managers can see the precise location of their vehicles, and access real-time location information for every vehicle under their care. Combined with GPS integrated with in-vehicle devices, location information is sent back to the office where dispatchers can track vehicle movement on electronic maps, and multi-level grouping and filtering capabilities allow them to focus only on the vehicles relevant to the current situation. AVL benefits both customers and workers. Call times are reduced, the closest available workers will be dispatched immediately, and 911 responders can be sent to the precise location in case of an emergency.
A blog for those of us who live and work in fleet management. Topics include engine diagnostics, driver safety, mobile workforce management, CAD/AVL, vehicle maintenance, truck distribution, global computing, work order management, and field services.
