Save 10 to 25% of the cost per vehicle

This statement sounds too good to be true. Practice proves that it can anyway! Due to a recent invention, a small device that you can place in any vehicle is available. This box can record up to 200 parameters AND provide almost in real time feedback to your back office. Examples of the parameters are GPS position of the vehicle, current fuel consumption, engine revs, cornering speed etc.
But how to save money with these kind of data? Direct savings are on fuel. Practice shows that 80% of drivers will save fuel when they get immediate feedback and a "score-card" is available. Of course, the new driving behaviour has positive consequences on effect for the maintenance, accidents & damages and speeding.
Movements of the fleet are shown the map, and available to the planners. This enables them to respond quickly to disturbances. It also offers the opportunity to reduce the built-in planning margins. This leads to a higher utilization, and thus more profit.
The investment per vehicle is low. The initial cost are about 350 euros and the service fee is about 20 euros per month per vehicle. Given the amounts that other have been able to save, payback is less than a quarter!
