How technology makes fleet managers happier

In 2015-2016, commercial vehicles travelled nearly 70 billion kilometres on Australian roads, according to the Bureau of Infrastructure, Transport, and Regional Economies. These vast distances and the country's sometimes extreme environments pose immense operational challenges for both fleet managers and drivers. Monitoring vehicles and equipment, and ensuring driver safety, while minimising costs within growing fleets, is proving increasingly difficult.

Luckily, Pinpoint Communications are popularising the use of technologies like vehicle telematics and GPS software to curtail the issue - below are four ways these are making fleet managers happier.


Vehicle telematics allow drivers and vehicles to be monitored centrally by relieved managers. Vehicle telematics allow drivers and vehicles to be monitored centrally by relieved managers.

Efficient fleet management and data gathering

One major issue for fleet managers is the difficulty in gauging a bigger picture of their operations. Monitoring drivers and protecting your fleet are concerns easily addressed by using vehicle telematics like Advanced Vehicle Management systems.

These constantly gather data on fleet journey times, assets' locations, average fuel consumption and other details, storing them in a central management console. This allows fleet managers to archive operational expenses and analyse macro trends within their business.

On-time deliveries and lower operational costs

Transport and logistics businesses are facing mounting challenges in efficient cargo delivery, with national infrastructural capabilities falling behind vehicle use.

AVM systems are aiding businesses in achieving full efficiency through route planning and traffic congestion data - providing drivers with up-to-date information on accessible routes ensures they can avoid delays and achieve timely cargo delivery. GPS technology also helps reduce fuel costs, with vehicles able to bypass wasteful traffic jams and roadworks.

Monitoring driver behaviour and safety

Long hours and arduous travel conditions are problems that truck drivers navigate daily. With their safety and well-being paramount, AVM systems' Mobile Duress safety feature enables fleet managers to constantly monitor driver whereabouts and gather detailed data on their trip.

Vitally, it's also capable of sending emergency alerts, regardless of weather conditions or location, giving managers and drivers peace of mind.

Assurance of security for equipment and vehicles

Pinpoint's specialised Asset Information System allows fleet managers to track asset details from acquisition through its life cycle, while recording data on levels of use, regular operators, and other information.

Monitoring equipment and vehicles in the field becomes centralised, ensuring that all assets are used efficiently and safely. It also provides an added level of security from theft and un-forecasted operational issues.

Pinpoint Communications are at the forefront of technological innovation in vehicle telematics, helping transport businesses to improve efficiency and keeping fleet managers happy with greater control over their drivers and security for their assets.
