Business success and profitability is directly linked to the operational efficiency within a business. In the time sensitive and challenging world of transport and logistics, automated business systems provide real time data for safe, informed and efficient decisions to be made. It’s about having the tools to be proactive within the business, rather than reactive. GPS fleet management software is a simple way to drive efficiency, improve communication and streamline the workflow of dispatch teams.

Dispatch GPS Fleet Management

DIRECTOR is GPS fleet management software that provides dispatchers with the right information at all times. Saving time without compromising safety in the logistics business is vital to the success of daily operations. The more time you save, the sharper your operation becomes, and the more profit you make.

With automated task management and workflow capabilities, DIRECTOR takes care of the routing process of both simple and complex deliveries in an efficient and profitable manner.

This gives dispatchers time to be strategic, proactive, and decisive in their role, which can only help the overall performance of the business.

Real-Time Data for Real-Time Decisions

Information should be reliable and easy to absorb. Dispatchers and fleet managers don’t have the space and time to decipher unclear data. They want to know at a glance where their transport is, what the status is on jobs, and how their drivers are performing.

GPS fleet management software provides exactly that. A dashboard that gives an overview of all the goings-on in the business on one screen If management needs to dig a little deeper on a specific area or subject, a few simple clicks will pull up the data they need in real-time.

Tailor the dashboard and reporting to suit your business. You can set up the system so that important people are regularly notified via email or text message of new developments and required actions.

When the proper individual in an organisation has access to timely, relevant, and complete information, they are better able to make educated decisions on the fly that do not jeopardise customer service, safety, or profits.

On the Front Foot

A GPS fleet management system allows a business to be proactive about key efficiencies. When fleet managers have access to their fleet’s whereabouts, usage, and purpose, they can easily determine which drivers, routes, deliveries, and activities are profitable.

Alerts are real-time updates that signal many different events, such as idling, harsh acceleration, speeding, harsh turning, and compliance violations. This gives a fleet manager the opportunity to get on the front foot and not only provide training to drivers that need it but create training to focus on specific skills gaps. This means less time in training and more time back on the road for drivers.

Maintenance and fuel use are two of the biggest costs in the logistics game. The Vehicle Analytics function within DIRECTOR provides fleet managers with information that helps them get proactive about maintenance and fuel.

An automatic maintenance schedule can include brake inspections, tyre rotations, and fluid checks based on engine hours or odometer readings.

Monitoring a full fleet’s vehicle status and engine diagnostics ensures that vehicles function at maximum efficiency. Also, this gurantees that your fleet are out on the road more as an income-earning asset.

The bigger picture of Fleet Management Software

Connecting all the elements and data within a business allows you to work at a highly strategic level. This, in turn, leads to better business planning and development.

DIRECTOR’s business intelligence tool combines the data from DIRECTOR with back-office platforms. The software can integrate car and driver data with payroll, taxation, and billing to make it easier to understand.

Exploring all operations in your business leads to savings and improved productivity.

Finding ways to reduce costs and improve efficiency is the best way to grow a business. A fleet management system will do just that by giving you real-time data to make educated and informed decisions.
