Reducing The Costs of Fleet Management

By Corney S. Richardson


Train your drivers and educate your fleet management team. Good drivers greatly contributes to a successful fuel management. Fuel efficiency; reduce fuel expenses and increase fleet safety are some benefits of proper training. To increase productivity and lower fuel costs use a GPS fleet tracking system. It's also advised to have a GPS fleet tracking system that is telematics enabled that monitors overaly, vehicle performance, tracks fuel waste due to idling, sends speeding alerts, plus much more. To improve efficiency and reduce fleet fuel costs and emissions an Ag system that identifies critical areas is advised.

Implement advanced mobile asset management technology. You can measure and manage a fleet better when you have the right information. Tracking miles traveled, average speed and engine efficiency is critical to cutting fuel costs. Mapping software and a system will eliminate unnecessary miles. Less time on the road means less fuel consumed, less wear on vehicles, decreased expenditures and overall increased productivity.

Keep the load as light as possible. Excess weight places unnecessary strain on a vehicle's engine and greatly affects its fuel efficiency. If possible, upgrade to more fuel-efficient vehicles. Use the lightest, most fuel efficient vehicle for the job. Don't use the company van when you can use a smaller sedan that gets better gas mileage.

Tune up vehicles regularly. Also place a well-managed maintenance policy. This is better because a well-maintained vehicle performs better, improves, and reduces toxic emissions. Also a well-maintained vehicle cost less to operate in the long run. Also remember to check tire pressure inflation routinely. This can increase fuel efficiency, improve vehicle and braking performance, and extend a tires life.

Turn-by-turn navigation by Garmin and Google Maps is integrated with GPS fleet tracking GPS fleet tracking system. It's designed to enhance the workforce productivity, improve customer service, reduce the costs, stopping wasteful driving habits, and also controlling carbon dioxide emissions. Not only fleet tracking system GPS fleet helps you to protect the planet, it also help you save both time and money.
