Vehicle Fleet Management Software

Vehicle fleet management software can help you save money, deliver better customer service, and stay compliant

What is vehicle fleet management software?

Vehicle fleet management software is the software package that collects the data from the GPS unit installed in your fleet’s vehicles and then presents that data back to the agents in the head office.

That data collected will be broad and benefit your fleet in several ways. It will tell you the location of your drivers in real-time, as well as data on how they are driving. Everything from the speed to the heaviness they break and how aggressive they are on turns is tracked to a granular level of detail.

This information is also presented with critical data on the costs being accumulated. Cost-per-mile and asset utilisation data can be enormously helpful in driving efficiencies across the fleet.

Vehicle fleet management software solutions are also cloud-based, meaning that your employees and key decision makers can access the platform from anywhere and at any time, allowing for maximum flexibility in fleet management.

Dash cam technology

The fleet management software solution integrates with dash cams too, allowing for a full video feed to be accessed remotely. This is enormously useful for organisations in several ways. Firstly, it enhances security, giving drivers peace of mind and helping to resolve incidents efficiently.

Secondly, it is a useful training tool, with the driver’s managers able to access the feed to highlight opportunities to improve driver technique.

Dash cam technology is an essential component in building transparency and accountability into the fleet, and the deep integration with Netstar’s vehicle fleet management software is proven in its ability to deliver the right outcomes.

Increase your business efficiency

Through the Netstar vehicle fleet management software solution, you can see your drivers’ position and movement at a glance. Additionally, geofencing and other monitoring tools allow you to build a single view of your drivers’ performance, tasks, and availability.

This allows you to run a highly efficient operation. As new tasks come in, you can instantly assign them to the best available driver for the job. Not only does this significantly cut down on fleet running costs (reducing the number of km driven and fuel consumed), but it also results in a better customer experience, as customers will be serviced more quickly by the best available driver.

In addition to the real-time view. The long-term data and historical view that the vehicle fleet management software will build can help you to make strategic business decisions. For example, you will be able to determine which assets are performing inefficiently over the long term and which areas are being poorly serviced and adjust the deployment of your assets to suit.

Keep your business compliant

Many regulatory and compliant requirements are placed on modern fleets, and an opportunity to leverage your vehicle fleet management software to stay compliant and maximise your business’ performance.

Fuel tax credits are the big one. The efficient running of your business relies on being able to claim the correct amount, and Netstar’s vehicle fleet management software solution makes this effortless.

Knowledge is everything – know what is happening with your fleet

Building transparency across the organisation is central to any efforts to run more efficiently. The more unconnected systems and manual processes in place, the more difficult it is to have proper visibility into your drivers’ day-to-day movements and fleet assets’ performance.

That’s why leveraging the vehicle fleet management software as the operational foundation of the fleet is so important. Across electronic driver records, the GPS data collection, and the dash cam, the strength of Netstar’s solution is that it is all brought together seamlessly.

Equally important is the ability to communicate those details with the drivers. The data collected by the software, and the analytics and insights provided, are designed to be actionable and insightful, with valuable takeaways for drivers to improve their performance and data that can inform training and acknowledge and reward improvements.

Improve your customer service (know where/when your vehicles are)

Customer service expectations have never been higher. Thanks to pioneering innovation by large corporations, customers expect to be serviced quickly but also with accuracy – being given an ETA of the driver that is accurate is greatly valued by the modern, time-poor customer.

The Netstar vehicle fleet management software solution can provide this functionality to businesses of all sizes. Thanks to the accurate GPS tracking capabilities and communication features between head office and driver, you will be able to provide on-demand updates to your customers in real-time, allowing them to get on with their days while also making sure they’re available when the driver is on-site. No more needing to wait around all day with vague arrival dates. Now you can narrow it down to the hour.
