Fleet managers know that efficiency is the key to profitability and that a
well-run logistics operation is essential if profitability, productivity and
customer service are to be optimised. Without the help of a sophisticated
Vehicle Tracking System, their lack of control and visibility over a fleet is
often considerable, manifesting itself in a variety of ways.
Amongst the primary challenges facing fleet operators are:
• Increased distribution costs
• Increased use of service level agreement penalties
• Demands on flexibility & responsiveness to changes in plan
• Drive to reduce wastage (eg. re-keying or scanning paperwork after each
delivery)
• Logistics planning (right trailer, right location, right time)
• Improving security, safety and asset tracking
• Producing reports (create quick operational and strategic info)
• Maintaining accurate records
• Increased need for fleet visibility, driver contact and vehicle utilisation
• Legislation / Working time directive
• Road user charging and congestion charging
Proven solutions:
Efficient supply chains are marked by their flexibility, so TMS2 helps clients
collect, collate, analyse and act upon real-time information. Once in possession
of this data, clients can then manage resources swiftly and easily, implementing
chosen plans of action using sophisticated communications, be it adapting a
route because of a traffic jam or adding an unscheduled collection to a driver’s
schedule. Whatever request, the fleet is fully visible and able to comply
immediately.
At TMS2, our heritage in mobile technology and supply chain logistics allows us
to offer clients a unique GPS based Transport Management System that provides
real time fleet information and communication. All our systems are modular,
allowing clients to start small and upgrade the package as requirements grow.
TMS2 is a sophisticated resource management system, comprising a central
information hub that collates real-time location data from a fleet (whether 10
or more than 1,000 vehicles in size) gathered via in-vehicle units in each cab.
It’s easy to access the live operations data remotely and then direct drivers
and vehicles using in-cab communications.
Furthermore, the data collected can be used to compare transport management in
theory and practice, allowing the real cause of problems and inefficiencies to
be identified. Service and performance levels can then be measured and improved
for the future. The TMS2 vehicle tracking provides all of the capabilities and
business benefits that fleet managers need. Using our service can save
significant amounts of time and money and increase the efficiency of vehicle
fleets and drivers.
Wherever there’s an Internet connection, the information is always available.
Once logged in to the secure web site, a client will see the current location of
their fleet in real-time - each vehicle reports its whereabouts every 1 - 5
minutes if it is on the move. We have been providing vehicle tracking solutions
and bespoke software services for many years and specialise in being flexible
and open to development programs to make the solutions correctly fit a
business’s requirements.
