A Q&A with Santa, and Fleet Manager Mrs Claus, of North Pole Inc
This week we announced the release of our new, highly adaptable driver behaviour and vehicle performance monitoring solution.
Smart Telematics, which is powered by our OnlineAVL platform, has been designed to provide fleet managers with critical real time data about vehicle and driver behaviour and will enable you to make better informed decisions that can help reduce fuel consumption, extend equipment life, cut carbon emissions and improve driver safety.
A major benefit of Smart Telematics, something that is unique in the market, is the system's complete vehicle adaptability - it can be installed on HGV, LGV, vans and cars.
For fleet managers using telematics to carefully monitor the driving habits of their drivers, data that is truly dynamic, clearly presented and immediately useful, is essential to see where improvements can be made. Smart Telematics has been designed to ensure the data can be easily integrated into your daily business life and works by taking live data from the engine, analysing it and sending it to fleet managers in an easy to understand 'user friendly' format.
But the benefits of Smart Telematics aren't limited to fleet managers the system can also provide immediate feedback to the driver thanks to our head up training aid, the PPO-200 (Personal performance Optimiser). This intelligent device continually learns vehicle and driver habits and delivers feedback based on the knowledge it has gained. The feedback given is based on 6 KPI's - high RPM, unsteady drive, unnecessary engine power, harsh acceleration, road anticipation and ECO drive helping drivers to immediately adjust their behaviour and improve their driving.
