Why Every Fleet Manager Needs Excellent Fleet Dispatch Software

Chances are, your vehicle fleet is already managed by some sort of software solution – but in too many cases, these are sub-optimal or outdated systems.  Many operations still track everything manually in spreadsheets, for example, which is both time-consuming and prone to errors due to data entry mistakes.

However, there are now much better options available.  A modern fleet dispatch software suite can overhaul everything about your fleet management, and for the better.  Fleet dispatch software goes far beyond dispatch duties – it can become the central pillar of your entire fleet management workflow.

How Fleet Dispatch Solutions Make Fleets Run Better

1 – Tracking more than just vehicles on the road

Any up-to-date fleet will have some form of on-road vehicle tracking, usually via GPS, but you can do far more than that.  Fleet dispatch software can handle basic tracking, of course, but it will capture data from throughout the journey, along with information about your drivers’ performance.

This is then instantly put into databases for tracking and analysis.  You can keep tabs on your fleet’s overall health and performance month-by-month, year-by-year.  This leads to improved maintenance, lowered costs, and better ROI on your vehicle purchases.

2 – Keeping drivers and assets safer

Right now, with so much turmoil in the professional driving industry, it’s more important than ever to keep your drivers safe and happy.  Robust fleet tracking and reporting makes this simple!  You can monitor drivers’ performance to ensure they’re driving in safe ways, and schedule coaching for those who need a refresher.

In addition, by tracking vehicles’ performance and maintenance records, you have a much better chance of catching small mechanical issues before they become big dangerous problems.  Preventative maintenance is one of the best ways to protect your drivers and assets while assuring drivers that you really are looking out for them.

3 – Streamline audits, compliance, reporting, licensing, etc

There’s no avoiding the mountain of bureaucracy that goes along with operating a professional fleet – and the penalties for messing up paperwork can be steep.  You can be hit with fines, or potentially even lose licenses.  Worse, the amount of effort needed to ensure compliance can be overwhelming – at least if you’re doing things by hand.

Today’s fleet dispatch software captures and stores accurate data that you need for your reports, putting the information right where you need it.  In some cases, the data can even be sent to the authorities directly, greatly streamlining operations.
