Traxroot Fleet Management Software

No matter whether you manage a small municipal fleet, a large commercial fleet, or you rent out equipment to third parties, theft is a real concern for any operations manager. Traxroot Vehicle Tracking System Automobile manufacturers have taken a lot of precautions which has made  critical strides as of late to diminish vehicle burglaries, from utilizing stand alone alarm system to alerts on wireless devices connected via the GSM network. And with the rising need of tracking devices, vehicle tracking systems and fleet management software come with various sensors which when triggered creates an event and owner is alerted along with refined security programming in vehicles, which makes it increasingly hard for thieves to break into. From utilizing alerts features either by SMS or email, immobilizing options from the software, to utilizing GPS enabled routes, you will take all necessary precautions to handle situations that can bring down the chances of having your vehicle

Traxroot Usage Based Insurance Telematics insurance is car insurance where a telematics box is fitted to your car. The telematics box (also commonly known as a black box) then measures various aspects of how, when and where you drive. Usually a telematics box contains - SIM Card - Motion or G Force Sensors - Wireless communication (being introduced recently like bluetooth and wifi) - And a computer software hosting algorithms, data and to perform number crunching.

Traxroot On-Board Diagnostic System History OBD stands for “On-Board Diagnostics.” It is a computer-based tool which was originally designed to reduce emissions by monitoring the performance of major engine components. The origins date-back to 1982 in California to detect emission failures when regulations were developed by California Air Resources Board (ARB). Types of OBD-II Scanners There are two basic categories of OBD-II scanners. Code readers OBD-II code readers are typically inexpensive, basic devices that can read and clear codes from any vehicle that is equipped with OBD-II. These devices have a few inherent limitations in that they typically lack any information on manufacturer-specific codes and offer limited (or no) access to other data. Scan Tools OBD-II scan tools are more expensive, and they can offer a variety of different features. They offer advanced features like ECU programming, sophisticated software, and ECU adaptations. And

Traxroot Fuel Management System Thanks to remote diagnostics and wireless  GPS tracking , today’s fleet telematics tools keep you in-the-know and in-control of your fuel spending. Here’s how: Monitoring Driving Behavior Traxroot Logic's Driver behavior and Score cards helps in increasing operational efficiency. Set your on appropriate thresholds to determine what driving behavior is considered to be harsh and generate driver score cards. Idling  – According to Environmental Defence Fund, an idling car uses between 1/5 to 7/10 of a gallon of fuel every hour, and an idling diesel truck burns approximately one gallon of fuel an hour.  Speeding  – The U.S. Department of Energy reports that aggressive driving (speeding, rapid acceleration and breaking) can lower your gas mileage by roughly 15% to 30% at highway speeds and 10% to 40% in stop-and-go traffic. Plus, speeding impacts a vehicle’s following distance and likelihood of hard breaking, another fuel-z

Improper temperature control is a key reason why food and other perishable cargo are wasted in the supply chain. Monitor Cold Chain Operations for Increased Profitability Ensure cargo temperature stays within the acceptable range and use sensors to alert if any sudden changes occur. Minimize temperature-related load rejections, reduce costly spoilage claims, cut redelivery costs and use “lockdown” mode to help prevent cargo theft. Provide critical reports to determine location, reduce dwell times and optimize reefer performance. Reduce Fuel Consumption and Fleet Operating Costs Read data from fuel sensors and send alarms in the event of rapid fuel loss or theft. Detect and resolve improper fuel invoicing, and eliminate unnecessary continuous run usage. Track engine hours and mileage to decrease engine maintenance, tire replacement costs, and to extend trailer lifetime and warranty periods. Enable advanced vehicle management for increased productiv

Traxroot Vehicle Maintenance System There is always resistance to change, some companies say they don't have time to adopt a new  fleet management system  and some say it is difficult to bring change management due to low acceptance  whilst they continue to face higher unnecessary expense and  waste more time with its shortcomings. Vehicle maintenance  can be of 2 types : Scheduled and unscheduled. Scheduled are the ones which are planned and undergone to prevent major repair, unexpected downtime and more expensive issues.   Unscheduled ones are the repairs which are usually detected after a major break down and are not planned or expected which will lead to significant down time and high repair expenses thereby affecting business leading to frustration, loss of money and time. Which is why a robust fleet or vehicle maintenance software is required to manage your vehicle's maintenance dues and respective finances. It helps in real time alerts and manages all fu
