4 Improve Driver Safety Accidents are costly. The more serious the accident, the more time and attention you must devote to it. What is it worth - in dollars and peace of mind - to know that your vehicles and drivers are safe? For most fleet managers, reducing risk and gaining fleet visibility are critical success factors for choosing a telematics solution such as FleetLink. Achieve High Visibility the Key to Accident Prevention! The key to reducing risk is through increased visibility. Vehicles equipped with FleetLink are safer: If someone claims in error that your vehicle caused an accident, you can use FleetLink s reporting to prove the actual location of the vehicle. If an accident or incident does occur, the exact vehicle location is immediately known. Being able to disprove false liability claims gives you peace of mind and ensures that brand reputation is maintained. Monitor Lone Drivers As someone responsible for mobile workers, you are at risk whenever they work alone - especially in the hazardous environments, such as the oil and gas sector. Lacking visibility can escalate a loneworker injury from minor to severe, as well as increase the chance of employee theft, questionable conduct, etc. FleetLink s proprietary mapping system can save your company time & money, and more importantly, protect your most valuable asset your employees. Prevent Theft Do you know where your employees are? Improved visibility into how your fleet is performing could result in substantial cost savings while providing you with confidence that you are managing risks. FleetLink s theft prevention solutions enable you to do the following: Detect unauthorized movement Locate vehicles and assets in real time Utilize after-hours alerts to prevent unauthorized vehicle use. Potential Reduced Insurance Costs Managing a large fleet of vehicles and drivers is risky and insurers know that. They also know that using a telematics solution, such as FleetLink to track your fleet, reduces your accident rate and they will possibly reward you by reducing your insurance costs. With proof of reductions in your accident rate, further reductions at renewal time are often possible, as well. Enhance Customer Service Is your service fleet driving blind? Without a vehicle tracking solution, your fleet manager/dispatcher is at a loss to find your vehicles, re-allocate them to where they re needed the most, and to inform customers when they ll arrive on site. Your customers are calling - do you know where your vehicles are? FleetLink can optimize vehicle routes by providing estimated times of arrival (ETA), based on a vehicle s real-time location. If a customer calls about a delivery or service call, you can view your vehicles exact locations in real-time. Improved accuracy of deliveries and service calls means happier customers and more business for you. With FleetLink, you can count on increasing your customer base through customer loyalty and brand credibility.

Efficient drivers can get approximately 30% better mileage per gallon than their least efficient colleagues, and fuel economy decreases by half a mile per gallon for every 8 km/hr driven in excess of 90 km/hr. Improve Productivity and Driver Behavior Other fleet companies use automated screening tools to eliminate the guesswork in hiring. Without a fleet management solution, you risk hiring someone else s problem. Good drivers want to drive, but like everybody they want to know that their good driving practices are rewarded. Nothing is more discouraging for good drivers than to see other drivers get away with poor driving practices, such as unnecessary idling, speeding, fast accelerations, and harsh braking. Understanding that top drivers are that way because they want to deliver outstanding service, is the key to increasing productivity. Supporting great driving behavior creates better drivers and attracts the best. Top drivers love competition. They want to be accountable and are focused on being productive. The key to any sort of measurement scale or competition is that it can be seen to be fair to everyone involved. They are also competitive by nature and with accurate driving information - you can accurately reward great driving.
