The benefits of real time tracking

A real time tracking system consists of two major components. The first is the GPS device which sends details of the location. This could be in the form of a fixed in-vehicle tracking unit or software on a GPS enabled smartphone.

The second component is the software that receives the signal and interpets the incoming data. It is this interpretation of the data which enables you to see direction and speed of travel and the software can also use the incoming data in conjunction with your specific requirements.

For instance, if you need to know when an employee arrives (or leaves) a specific point you can enter this into your web interface and the software does the rest, detailing the time of arrival/leaving.

The software also provides you with a GUI (Graphical User Interface) so that you can see on a map exactly where your vehicles/employees are in real time.

The real time advantage

During the course of a normal business day there are often changes of plan which are unforseen. Being able to track all of your employees and vehicles in real time allows you to divert resources in the most cost efficient way based on their actual position, rather than where they are supposed to be.

If any of your employees should need help or assistance you know immediately where they are. Lone worker protection is included as standard with our mobile phone tracking systems.

You can be notified in real time of any employees who are speeding and contact them straight away.

There are a huge number of options which you have full control of and can change any time. All of the real time data is collected and stored and is available to be viewed at a later date.

From this reports can be compiled at the touch of a button, including timesheets and mileage reports. A tracking system will seriously reduce administration costs in this way.
