What is GPS tracker for?
A GPS Tracking Device is a device whose main feature is to track any asset, from vehicles to mobile workforce, through cloud-computing that connects the tracker and its information, in this case, to the main Fleet Complete platform. This way, the tracker continuously sends its coordinates and other data to the portal and, with real-time data analysis, the manager knows exactly where all assets are at any given moment, how the driver is performing, the status of the vehicle and many other focal points, generated from the collected data.
With recent development in the industry, GPS technology has been put on the spotlight in the market with regards to automotive and mobile workforce safety. The device not only alerts to theft, but also to timely vehicle maintenance, preventing unexpected en route breakdowns and expensive repairs, as well as adverse driving behaviour that contributes to road accidents, vehicle wear and tear, and higher insurance costs.
Who are the users?
The typical users of the GPS Fleet Tracker solution are business owners or managers of vehicle fleets, who would like to be able to swiftly locate and dispatch its employees to the job site, optimize optimise routing to the destination, and thus bring efficiency to daily operations. This allows for time and money saving as well as protecting high-value assets from being lost or stolen.
