Wireless Fleet Management Controls Costs and Cuts Emissions.
We all want to reduce emissions so that the air will be clean for our children and our children’s children. But going green can also save your company money.

As fuel and other costs continue to rise for commercial and government fleets, this provides an opportunity to lessen your carbon footprint for the environment by improved Fleet efficiency. By improving a fleet’s fuel efficiency, companies can reduce overhead and emissions. Through GPS tracking, managers are able to monitor vehicle idling as well as speeding violations. This can cut down on unnecessary fuel expenditures and increase driver accountability.

Fleet management systems also provide a wealth of data on a vehicle’s overall efficiency and Vehicle Diagnostics to ensure that your fleet is running as green as possible. This includes continuous emissions monitoring that provides reports and indicates when emissions are out of compliance so any problems may be resolved quickly.

In spite of emission control devices, cars and trucks continue to release millions of tons of pollutants into the air each year. The transportation sector is currently responsible for approximately one-quarter of Greenhouse Gas Emissions in the United States and is expected to be one of the fastest growing sources of greenhouse gas emissions in the foreseeable future (US DOT). This is why it is vitally important to optimize fleet operations soon, new regulation in effect this year in fact, due to the new mandate the FMCSA’s Compliance, Safety, Accountability (CSA) programs Electronic Logging Devices… Read More >

Reduce Idle Time.
Idling can significantly impact Miles-per-gallon (MPG) because the engine is burning fuel when the vehicle is not moving. Excessive vehicle idling also affects engine wear. Research shows that fuel usage up to 15% if vehicle idling is reduced.

Wireless fleet management enables fleet managers to monitor idle time by vehicle, to determine which vehicles exceed a pre-set idle threshold. This information can be used in a variety of ways to reduce idle time. For example, if you are using a system that monitors engine diagnostics, you can compare idle time and the amount of fuel consumed between similarly operated vehicles.

Improve Vehicle Maintenance
Knowing the health of your vehicles is critical to your business, but it is not always easy to access that information. Drivers are often reluctant to disclose a problem for fear the vehicle may be taken out of service for a day or more. Even the most obvious of notices, the “check engine” light, may not be communicated by a driver for days, weeks, or months after the initial occurrence. This information can be provided to technicians so that they can begin their repairs immediately instead of spending time trying to diagnose the problem.
