5 Shocking Ways GPS Fleet Tracking Has Been Used

We often talk about the benefits of GPS fleet tracking from a business operations perspective – and there are plenty.

Trucking companies who use fleet tracking find they’re able to make better use of their drivers’ and maintenance team’s time by sending them on more efficient roots, which results in cost-savings. Construction fleets can find bottlenecks on job sites and improve asset utilization by seeing what pieces of equipment are where, and where else they might be needed.

But, over the years, we’ve also heard some fun, surprising and shocking stories about how our customers have used our GPS tracking system. Brace yourselves:

• A surprise savings of over $160,000 – Sherwood Construction used our software to solve equipment theft. The GPS tracking data led them – and the police to the exact barn their stolen loader backhoe was in as well as the location of another stolen skid steer. These would have cost over $160,000 to replace and recovering either by itself would have paid for the entire technology system.
