 Compliance with Government Regulations

3. What is Integrated Telematics?
• Vehicle Telematics is the combined use of GPS
technology and telecommunications, such as cellular
technology, to obtain data from automotive vehicles.
• Integrated Telematics is the use of vehicle telematics
data with software, such as dispatching software to
help make better business decisions and automate
workflow.

5. Plan loads efficiently with telematics
Poorly planned load Well planned load
• Driver not qualified • Right person for the job
• Equipment incorrect for load • Right equipment for the job
• Too many idle vehicles • Continuous flow, no idling
• Empty back hauls
• Driver knows what he’s doing
• Multiple trips due to at all times
miscommunication
• Missed delivery/pick up times • Maximize load capacity
• Excessive calls to dispatch • Loaded back hauls
• Driver harassment • Driver overtime as needed
• Overtime as standard practice • Accurate and timely
• Clueless about driving information about driving
operations operations
All leads to increased costs!

6. Plan loads efficiently with telematics

results in higher fuel consumption and increased risk of
accidents.
– Breadcrumb – Identify where a driver has been to ensure
he is driving the most optimal route.
• Search over any period of time and for any of your
drivers.
