There are plenty of fleet management solutions out there, but how many are actually suitable for fleets running heavy-duty trucks? The good news is that truck fleet management is now easier thanks to advancements in technology.<\/p>\n

Here are nine ways Telogis\u00a0truck fleet management software can help you to run a more profitable and productive fleet:<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
    \n
  1. Paperless compliance: HOS logbooks and DVIRs to improve reporting, maximize uptime and reduce admin costs<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Many drivers struggle to keep up with the paperwork- and human error plays a factor in Form and Manner errors in logbooks.
    \n
    \nELD paperless logbooks can be set to automatically collect driving data, allowing drivers to maximize driving time by recording in single-minute units, not the traditional 15-minute increments. Roadside inspections are often quicker and more efficient too.<\/p>\n

    DVIRs can now be completed electronically using only a smartphone to capture necessary information and photo evidence and sign off previous reports. Data is automatically uploaded, which means repairs can be scheduled and new parts ordered sooner.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. <\/b>Drivers can use iOS or Android smartphones and tablets<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Telogis will run on any iOS (iPhone, iPad or Apple Watch) or Android device. It\u2019s an easy way to simplify the number of solutions and devices your mobile employees need to deal with. Telogis range of mobile apps to covering compliance, navigation, driver behavior, vehicle inspections and work order management you can keep all this information in one place on a single handheld device.<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. <\/b>Built-in telematics\u00a0<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Traditional telematics used to require that fleet owner to schedule each truck to be fitted with aftermarket GPS tracking hardware before they could be managed. Resulting in unwanted downtime, extra administration and additional costs. Built-in telematics is changing all that by delivering new trucks direct to the buyer with all the necessary hardware installed \u2013 you simply need to activate your account online and you have instant truck fleet management.<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. <\/b>Commercial navigation that provides truck-specific routes based on load and truck size<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Commercial truck drivers need more than just off-the-shelf navigation \u2013 they need navigation software that understands the stress of safely maneuvering an 80,000-pound machine from one destination to the next.<\/p>\n

          Telogis Navigation offers a number of significant advantages to keep driver stress to a minimum and get them to their next waypoint with maximum efficiency and safety.<\/p>\n
