Whether managing a small or medium-sized fleet, our solution delivers comprehensive data, enabling real-time tracking of vehicles, trailers, equipment, and other assets.
The Need for Fleet Management
Effective fleet management is crucial to mitigate financial burdens caused by:
- Theft: Vehicle theft is a major concern for fleet owners, with over 300,000 vehicles stolen annually in India. It often takes time to recover lost vehicles, which may be damaged or stripped of valuable equipment.
- Idling: Prolonged idling negatively affects fuel efficiency, increasing operational costs. Research suggests that controlling idle time can reduce fuel usage by up to 15%, while excessive idling can damage vehicle components like engines and exhaust systems.
- Dispatching: Without real-time vehicle location data, dispatchers cannot efficiently assign the closest vehicle to a job, leading to wasted time and fuel.
- Over-speeding: Excessive speeding increases fuel consumption and the risk of accidents, further compromising safety and operational efficiency.
Benefits of Fleet Management
Fleet managers who use Sahib GPS gain the following advantages:
Increased Fuel Efficiency
Fleet managers can monitor idle time and vehicle speed, using this data to compare fuel consumption across vehicles. By knowing that their driving behavior is being tracked, employees are more likely to adopt safer driving habits, reducing fuel theft and unsafe driving practices.
Dispatching and Routing Efficiency
With GPS tracking, dispatchers can locate the nearest vehicle to a job site and assign tasks more efficiently, cutting fuel costs and enhancing customer satisfaction. The system ensures optimal route planning, reducing travel time and increasing job completion rates.
Unauthorized Vehicle Use and Theft Recovery
Sahib GPS tracks when vehicles are turned on or off, and provides data on vehicle movement, even during odd hours. Fleet owners are alerted to any unauthorized vehicle use, ensuring that assets are protected from theft. In case of theft, real-time tracking aids in swift recovery through geographic zone alerts.
