GPS Tracking for Small Fleets
10 Apr 2017
Small fleet owners, those operating between 10 and 50 light and medium-duty trucks, often overlook the incredible value that GPS tracking can offer when it comes to your bottom line. While cutting fuel costs may be a positive, many small fleet owners feel that won’t make a big enough difference to the bottom line to warrant an increase in costs.
These are just a few of the other benefits GPS tracking has to offer small fleet owners that may bring bigger results for your business than you realize.
Allows You to do More with Fewer Resources
Wouldn’t it be nice if you could simply get more done in a day without needing to add new trucks or personnel to your rosters? GPS fleet tracking helps you do exactly that. The fact that your drivers are being monitored encourages greater efficiency in their actions throughout the day.
GPS routing allows you to avoid areas that generally slow drivers down as an added benefit. This frees up more time in your schedule to take on new jobs within a day using the same resources you had before. The more efficient you become, the more you can do with less.
Improve Customer Service
For many small fleet services, your customers rely on timely delivery of goods and services. Whatever you’re in the business of providing, the ability to offer reliable time windows for delivery or service calls helps customers fall in love with your entire organization. They will be more inclined to contact your organization for future goods and services as well as to let everyone know about their good experience.
Extend the Life of Your Vehicles
The repair and replacement of vehicles can be a substantial financial problem for small fleets. You don’t have a lot of wiggle room in the operating budget for unexpected repairs, maintenance-related accidents, or vehicle replacement costs. GPS fleet tracking can be used to automate the scheduling of vehicle maintenance – allowing you to catch signs of problems early and keep your fleet vehicles in tip-top condition. This can extend the lifetime usefulness of your vehicles by one year or much longer, greatly reducing vehicle costs and efficiency over their lifetimes.
Just these things can make a huge difference in your annual bottom line while allowing you to build and grow your business and the reputation of your business. An investment in GPS tracking for your fleet is such a small price to pay for the many rewards it delivers.
