Why Businesses Need GPS Tracking Services

Henn: Navman Wireless helps businesses reduce the operating costs of their vehicle fleets with GPS-based fleet tracking technology. By combining GPS tracking units installed in each vehicle with back-end software that analyzes the data, Navman Wireless' fleet tracking system helps businesses reduce fuel consumption and other waste, improve dispatch and routing efficiencies by seeing where all vehicles are in real time, optimize vehicle maintenance schedules and identify problems, such as unauthorized vehicle use. Customers typically reduce fuel usage by 10% or more versus those who don't use the technology.

What types of businesses or industries would benefit best from these products? Can someone who has, say, two delivery trucks use this technology efficiently?

Henn: Any business that has vehicles on the road -- or off -- can benefit from using fleet tracking, whether service, delivery or even construction equipment. Navman Wireless' customers range from pest control services, marine parts distributors and specialty cleaning companies to waste haulers, school transportation services and commercial trucking firms. Fleets can be as small as three and as large as tens of thousands.
