A Q&A with Santa, and Fleet Manager Mrs Claus, of North Pole Inc
Navman Wireless customer Envirovan offer affordable van hire with daily, weekly, or long-term options. They provide a quick and easy booking system, which gives customers the ability to be on the road in minutes.
Envirovan??invested in 10 Navman Wireless van tracking systems back in June 2015, but have since increased the size of their fleet - and the vans they track - from 10 to 20.
We spoke to general manager Katie Daly about the benefits she has seen since investing in a van tracking system from Navman Wireless.
Hi Katie, you've recently increased the number of vans you are currently tracking, can we assume this means??business is going in the right direction?
"Yes, it is! We offer value for money hire on short & long term rental options and the business is growing. It's a nice time to be the general manager of??Envirovan."
What benefits are you seeing from Van Tracking?
"We operate in the South East and the people who rent our vans regularly travel in and around London so they pick up congestion charges as they go. Because our vans are utilising van tracking systems from Navman Wireless I'm able to find out when customers have taken our vans into areas that are applicable for the charge.
I check the system and then allocate the cost of the charge straight to a customer account. It makes life easier and is one less worry which improves the experience with us."
Has tracking eliminated the risk theft?
"Yes, I can use the system to see where vehicles are going at all times. Customers are tracked so if they venture off in a strange direction we would be able to see automatically and alert the authorities if we thought a van was being stolen."
How was the installation process?
"Installation was great. Everybody I've interacted with at the company has been really helpful. The training has helped improved my knowledge as well."
What would you say to a fleet manager who's considering a van tracking system?
"It's an easy system to work with and once you've completed the training the benefits are clear.
"Obviously it depends on what industry you're in but I'm sure a tracking system can advance and help the lives of most fleet managers.
"There's a good team at Navman Wireless and the communication is always fantastic.
"I'd advise anybody in fleet management position to consider finding out more where van tracking can help add value.
"I couldn't image trying to do my job without it now!"
