GPS Fleet Tracking Service Plan

GPS fleet tracking uses GPS-enabled devices installed in vehicles or equipment to provide businesses with information about location, movement, routes, stops, and other fleet activity. This information can be accessed through a web-based tracking platform and mobile devices.

A tracking service includes tracking hardware, access to a tracking platform, real-time vehicle monitoring, trip history, reporting, alerts, geofencing, and technical support. The specific features and hardware available can vary depending on your fleet and tracking requirements.

Yes. GPS tracking allows you to monitor the current locations and movement of connected vehicles and equipment from a centralized tracking platform. This gives fleet managers greater visibility into daily operations.

Yes. Stop reports can display each stop’s location, address, arrival time, and duration. Geofencing can also help confirm when vehicles enter or leave specific customer locations, job sites, or other designated areas.

GPS tracking can be used with a wide range of vehicles and equipment, including cars, pickup trucks, service vans, trucks, trailers, heavy-duty vehicles, and other mobile assets. The appropriate tracking device depends on the vehicle or equipment and how it will be used.
