The system works in concert with truck manifests, outbound delivery schedules, dock planning files and vehicle equipment profiles to track trailers through your terminal. Vehicles capture and transmit a constant stream of real-time data on driver performance, routes taken and hours worked. You use the data to reduce mileage, improve fuel economy and boost productivity across the board. When you know what your fleet is doing hour by hour, you can reduce delivery turnarounds, match customer time windows, improve equipment usage, eliminate aborted deliveries, even remotely monitor time-sensitive loads. Before trucks leave the terminal, your dispatchers use automated route planning to identify the most cost-efficient routes each day.
Drivers collect valuable data as they travel their routes.
Automating data collection reduces paperwork handling at the loading dock and speeds loading and delivery of outbound shipments. You have proof of delivery on line if you need it. Print delivery confirmation slips for customers on the spot. For even more route efficiency, augment the onboard system with a keyboard, global positioning system, radio modem and uninterruptible power supply. All the components fit in a ruggedized unit that mounts securely in the cab.
