3 Tips To Transform Your Fleet Vehicles From Functional To Phenomenal

For police, utility, insurance and all organizations that rely heavily on a field workforce, a fleet vehicle is more than a mere transportation vessel - it is the epicenter of productivity for workers on the front line.    Follow these tips to transform your fleet vehicles into safe, connected and productive “mobile offices”.

1. Perform a Comprehensive Workflow Analysis

By understanding how your field force works, you will be able to identify the right type of mobile device and what integrated capabilities it should feature,  how and where the device should be mounted, what software and applications are needed as well as what accessories would further enhance productivity.

For example, many police departments man their vehicles with two deputies, therefore a mounting set-up that allows for a passenger to sit and enter data is required.
