maintenance and eliminate nasty surprises.

representing upwards of 10% of vehicle
operating costs. High workshop costs and
unforeseen maintenance and repair bills have
the potential to seriously hurt cash flow and
business viability.
EROAD’s comprehensive service module
allows you to proactively manage the
maintenance and repair of your vehicle fleet.

10. Visibility and control over vehicle
configurations allows you to optimally
manage your road tax obligations to
improve your cash flow.
Registered vehicle configurations are
automatically retrieved from the Oregon
Department of Transportation and allocated
to the correct vehicle in the EROAD solution.
Drivers can select their correct vehicle
configuration using a menu on the
Ehubo hardware and the EROAD solution
automatically allocates the correct tax rate to
the vehicle trip. Alternatively you can change
configurations retrospectively in EROAD's
Depot web application.

11. You can achieve major cost savings from
operating vehicles more efficiently by
managing idle times. Lowering idle times
saves fuel and money, and reduces emissions,
engine wear and maintenance costs.
Our clients report that our user-friendly
tools and reports translate into significant
fuel savings, and help to identify trends,
exceptions and suspicious behavior.

12. The EROAD application supports carriers in
meeting the record-keeping requirements
of the International Fuel Tax Agreement
and International Registration Plan.
Our system automatically and accurately
tracks and records your vehicle journeys,
and displays the miles for a particular
reporting period by state and province.
This information is required to complete
quarterly IFTA tax returns and annual
IRP registration forms, and helps you to
minimize your obligations by identifying
any exempt miles.

IFTA REPORTING

13. The driver is your most important asset.
Creating a safe workplace is a key goal for all
motor carriers who recognize that driver error,
fatigue, and over speed are major factors in
crashes.
Accountability and transparency around
driver behavior supports compliance
with company, regulatory, and insurance
requirements.
The Over Speed Report provides a record of
vehicle speeds against posted speed limits. In
addition carriers are able to isolate high-risk
areas such as dangerous corners, black ice
roads, and school zones.
The EROAD solution will help you to improve
health and safety, reduce emissions, and
increase profits by improving driver behavior.

SAFER DRIVERS

14. OREGON SECRETARY
OF STATE'S AUDIT
The EROAD solution received an independent
unqualified opinion by the Oregon Secretary of
State's Audits Division.
The purpose of the comprehensive performance
Audit was to provide motor carriers and
Oregon Department of Transportation with an
independent assessment of the EROAD electronic
weight-mile tax solution.
The Audit concluded that the EROAD technology
platform reduces the burden of record keeping
by helping motor carriers prepare and submit
weight-mile tax reports.
The full report can be read at http://sos.oregon.gov/audits/Documents/2013-32.pdf
THE AUDIT DIVISION’S MAIN FINDINGS:
• EROAD electronic on-board-unit hardware
and web-based services platform accurately
and reliably captures and calculates
Oregon weight-mile tax information from
commercial motor carriers.
• System provides a secure and stable
environment for transmitting, processing,
and storing motor carrier weight-mile tax
information.
• System-generated reports contained all
required weight-mile tax data elements,
sufficiently captured motor carrier
operations, and applied correct tax rates.
• EROAD data, reports, and records were
more reliable and accurate than the paper-
based records compiled and filed by carriers.
• Automated system for capturing and
preparing weight-mile tax reports could
simplify motor carrier report monitoring,
reduce costs of manual data entry, and
decrease accidental non-compliance with
the state’s weight-mile tax requirements.

15. BUT DON’T TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT…
Ask our clients!
"Our dispatchers are able to see where our trucks
are and make adjustments to best utilize our fleet.
We will save time on our road tax reporting each
month and the accuracy of the EROAD mapping
system is going to help us feel more confident in
the miles we report. It’s definitely a step forward in
technology and efficiency."
MELISSA BROWN
Northwest Beef Express LLC
"EROAD has proven to be more accurate than most
drivers in terms of tracking off-road miles. Being
able to geofence off-road areas such as windmill
farms, construction sites, distributions centers in
order to claim exempt miles is a great feature.
We were able to save those 10% of total miles that
we used to include as taxable. EROAD technology
more or less pays for itself in this way."
STEVE BATES, VICE PRESIDENT
Redmund Heavy Hauling Inc.
"The main advantage of EROAD over other systems
for us is the ability to track off-road miles and
different weight configurations and be able to use
that data without correction. This reduces both
driver and administrative workload."
