Tracking By Mobile

Vehicle tracking is already widely used my companies employing mobile workers. Tracking by mobile is a cost effective solution to vehicle tracking with added functionality and benefits.

Whether you manage a salesforce, couriers, coach drivers or taxi drivers it’s important to know the whereabouts and activities of your team. It’s also vitally important the knowledge of the teams activities is obtained in an efficient way. Tracking by mobile allows users to customise the way they use it. Users can determine what they need to be alerted to and when as well as being able to pinpoint the location of team members instantly.

Vehicle tracking can be logistically difficult to maintain in the event of a fault or problem. A vehicle may be required to return to a specific location to resolve the issue, and the system may be unavailable for a significant period of time whilst the vehicle is returned and the system is repaired. A worker may also need to use an alternative vehicle (eg courtesy car) in the event of a vehicle repair or service and may therefore be untracked for that period. These events do not affect tracking by mobile as the device constantly stays with the individual.

Tracking by mobile uses the latest smartphone and GPS technologies to help you effectively manage your team of mobile workers. Benefits include;

• Google Map views displaying real-time, precise location of your mobile workforce

• Identify nearest resource to customer locations 
• Alert on arrival and departure of customer sites 
• Automatic generation of expenses, timesheet and mileage reports 
• Monitor speeding by individual road limits 
• Easy-to-use one-click reporting for manager or dispatcher

The advantages of tracking via PDA or smart phone include: -

• No expensive installation of hardware
