FLEET MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE

Automate the Fleet, Improve Efficiency

Inevitably, a software that provides…

• Dispatch communication between organizer and fleet

• Scheduling functions including real-time updates

• Route replays and KPI's including mileage and arrival times

• GPS integrations

• Vehicle monitoring with engine control modules

• One-click invoices and billing capabilities employee reports

• Expenditure and transaction history

improves the overall efficiency of a business. An increase in efficiency translates into a variety of benefits for customers, for employees, and for the business as a whole. Let’s analyze the sphere of influence.

The Customer

Creating accurate routes manually or using outdated software is an impossible task, customers are relying on the accuracy of a routing system, scheduling their day around an estimated time of arrival based on those routes.

By automating the process with a custom route management software with the capacity to calculate traffic delays and time spent at stop lights, delivery and arrival times can be doled out with a greater degree of accuracy.

Fleet routing software will increase consumer satisfaction by increasing fleet predictability. A greater level of customer satisfaction leads to positive referrals and repeat business, an influx that ultimately ends up in the merchant's pocket.

The Driver

Fleet routing software allows you to monitor your fleet and your crew at moments of the day. We all want to trust that our employees are preforming at their fullest capacity—driving fleet vehicles to the scheduled destination safely and efficiently. Unfortunately, this is not always the case.

In fact, a driver can impact fuel costs significantly. If a driver is operating a fleet vehicle without intent, and with little regard to route optimization, fuel costs will bog down ROI. After all, fuel costs already comprise over half of variable costs, leaving very little room for error.

Employees may unintentionally be your number one expense. Fleet routing software must document real-time analytics on driver travel times, time spent not en route, and individualized mileage.

This allows supervisors to understand employee behavior and predict potentially unsafe driving habits, leading to accident prevention and an overall decrease in expenses.

The Business

Fleet routing software is the bridge between fleet and home base—a filtration system for both anticipated and unanticipated road blocks.

It doesn't matter how large a fleet is, fleet management demands constant maintenance leading to high, inescapable, and sometimes unpredictable monthly costs

Fixed costs are just that—fixed, they're inevitable, with minimal potential for elimination. When managing a fleet, or any business for that matter, there should be a constant effort to consolidate variable costs. Here is the average variable cost distribution for businesses managing fleets:

AI Powered Fleet management software is completely customizable, and engine control modules should provide real-time analytics regarding the health of a fleet, issuing upkeep reminders and keeping merchants current on their vehicles.

Upgrading to a platform that automates the process may improve efficiency enough to downsize fleet size. Our clients average TCO on a fleet vehicle around $5,000/year.

What if an operator was able to decease their fleet by 50 vehicles after seeing an increase in efficiency?

Eliminating 50 vehicles from their fleet would save their business an estimated $250,000/year. Or maybe the business is expanding due to the improved efficiency, and it's able to widen its customer base, and instead of saving $250,000/year it'll be coming in as profit.

Make the Upgrade

Perhaps the only drawback to updating fleet routing software is the initial investment, but even then there are affordable software development services to make the process more reasonable. Even after coming to terms with the development, business owners will meet a crossroad: custom development or off-the-shelf.

We might be a little biased, but we believe custom is always superior. Contextualizing a solution inevitability yields higher productivity. When we think about the implementation side of off-the-shelf, and all of the resources that go into molding that off-the-shelf solution to an individual business context, it’s not surprising that off-the-shelf often snowballs into a much larger project than anticipated. With custom software the parameters are clearly defined and the development roadmap is set in stone.

It's time to reinvent fleet routing with custom software that will improve keep customers happy by improving efficiency in all facets of fleet management.
