SAVE ON YOUR FLEET COSTS

1. Fuel Efficiency

• Smarter Routes: Using GPS and tools like Frotcom, you can find the quickest and least congested routes by factoring in real-time and historical traffic data. That means less time on the road and lower fuel costs.
   
• Better Driving Habits: Monitoring speeding, excessive idling (especially on hot days), and harsh braking helps reduce fuel consumption and enhances safety for both the vehicle and its cargo.
   
• Regular Maintenance: A well-tuned engine burns less fuel, so staying on top of maintenance pays off in the long run.

2. Preventive Maintenance

• Stay Ahead of Problems: Scheduling regular maintenance helps you avoid costly breakdowns and keeps vehicles running longer.
   
• Get Notified Automatically: Fleet software can alert you 
  when a vehicle needs servicing, helping you reduce 
  unplanned downtime and repair bills.
   

3. Lower Insurance Costs

• Safer Driving Means Lower Premiums: When you 
  manage driver behaviour with telematics and 
  cameras, you create a track record of safe driving, 
  which can help lower insurance costs.
   
• Theft Prevention: GPS tracking not only deters theft 
  but also helps recover vehicles quickly — something 
  insurers love to see.
   

4. Reduced Labor Costs

• Automatic Time Tracking: No more timesheet errors or fraud — automated systems keep things accurate and simple.
   
• Smarter Scheduling: Frotcom’s job dispatch system helps you assign tasks efficiently, reducing overtime and labor waste.

5. Asset Utilization

• Use What You Need: By analyzing fleet data, you might find you can downsize and eliminate underused vehicles.
   
• Maximize What You Have: With better scheduling, fewer vehicles can handle the same workload — saving you money.
   

6. Less Admin Work

• Go Paperless: Digital records are faster, more accurate, and easier to manage than manual paperwork.
   
• Easy Reporting: Automated reports make compliance and audits a lot simpler.
   
• Remote Tachograph Downloads: For truck or van fleets, pulling tachograph data remotely saves loads of time and ensures you stay compliant without the hassle.
   

7. Managing Vehicle Lifecycles

• Smart Buying Decisions: Use real performance and maintenance data to choose vehicles that deliver long-term value.
   
• Know When to Replace: Swap out vehicles before repair costs start piling up — it’s all about timing.

8. Preventing Theft & Misuse

• Remote Immobilization: You can safely shut down a vehicle when needed — don’t worry, it won’t happen while it's moving!
   
• GPS & Geofencing: Get alerts if a vehicle moves outside its assigned area or is used after hours.
   
• Business-Only Use: Make sure your fleet is only being used for work — not personal errands.
