What is Integrated Telematics?
• Vehicle Telematics is the combined use of GPS technology and telecommunications, such as cellular technology, to obtain data from automotive vehicles.
• Integrated Telematics is the use of vehicle telematics data with software, such as dispatching software to help make better business decisions and automate workflow.
Four ways to Cut Costs
Integrated Telematics will help you:
Plan loads more efficiently
Get the most accurate information
Encourage safe driving habits
Improve regulation compliance
① Plan loads efficiently with telematics
Poorly planned load• Driver not qualified• Equipment incorrect for load• Too many idle vehicles• Empty back hauls• Multiple trips due to
miscommunication• Missed delivery/pick up times• Excessive calls to dispatch• Driver harassment• Overtime as standard practice• Clueless about driving operations
All leads to increased costs!
Well planned load• Right person for the job• Right equipment for the job• Continuous flow, no idling• Driver knows what he’s doing
at all times• Maximize load capacity• Loaded back hauls• Driver overtime as needed• Accurate and timely
information about driving operations
① Plan loads efficiently with telematics Using telematics data leads to:
Always choosing the right driver for the jobMaximizing loaded milesMinimizing empty backhaulsReducing driver overtime
BenefitsReduced Fuel Spending
Reduced Driver Payroll CostsIncrease Capacity
② Get accurate information with telematicsTelematics data helps you:
Plot the most efficient route using navigation Automate dispatching workflow Improve customer service quality Provide proof of delivery and accurate billing
information
BenefitsImproved Customer Satisfaction
Fewer invoicing errorsFaster Delivery-to-Cash cycle
③ Encourage safe driving with telematicsEquip drivers with technology tools to:
Reduce driver distractions with voice instructed turn-by-turn truck navigation
Get real-time safety data and alerts of driving operations Streamline driver workflow with in-cab mobile data terminals Enforce safety rules through performance monitoring and driver
training
BenefitsBetter CSA scores
Reduced Insurance PremiumsHigher Driver Retention
④Improve compliance with telematics
Types of data captured to improve compliance:
Driver Performance data - routes taken, stop duration Vehicle data – fuel consumption, maintenance, speeds Hours of service via electronic logs
BenefitsReduced Fine RiskBetter CSA scores
Reduced Vehicle Maintenance Costs
Driver Performance Monitoring
• Understand driver behavior to reduce unnecessary costs through reports:– Stop – Identify excessive idle times which can lead to
overtime.– Speed Violation – Identify excessive speeding which
results in higher fuel consumption and increased risk of accidents.
– Breadcrumb – Identify where a driver has been to ensure he is driving the most optimal route.
• Search over any period of time and for any of your drivers.
