Best tools for managing fleets

Fleet tracking tools help you stay on top of things without the paperwork. Whether you need to review routes or monitor mileage, they give accurate information – fast. These tools can range from simple GPS that navigates and records mileage to sophisticated telematics which digitally report vehicle performance and driver behaviour. Simply put, they streamline your day-to-day admin saving you time and money.

Fleet maintenance software is great for keeping you in the know about what needs to be done and when. It can set health check reminders to ensure your vehicles are safe to use and stay compliant with the latest regulations – or send alerts when they’re not. It can also keep a record of previous repairs which will help your decision making when buying, leasing or selling vehicles.

The ongoing expense of fuel means you always need to keep your eye on ways to reduce costs. Fuel management tools provide real-time data to help you see which vehicles consume and cost the most. So, it’s easier to identify potential savings. What’s you’re making on meeting your organisation’s sustainability goals.

When audits come around or stakeholders request reports, you don’t want to be caught out by having to spend ages finding all the information. Instead of spending your valuable time on collating information about your fleet, analytics and reporting features can do the hard work for you. And, of course, you can use these insights to boost your fleet’s efficiency and overall performance.

When your drivers are out on the road, they need a quick and easy way to book a service, manage or make a claim, find servicing points and so on. Why not let them manage their vehicle through their phone? Free apps like the Alphabet App enable drivers to submit data without hassle and make contact in just a few clicks. That’s vital if it’s an emergency and it’s a great way of supporting them wherever they go in a timely manner.
