The Problem:
Many companies have hundreds, if not thousands, of stationary assets all over the world. Keeping an accurate count of these is not only a very difficult challenge, but vital to the bottom line if not utilized. Here are just a FEW scenarios. Could this be YOUR Company?
- It’s complicated to keep track of our containers as they’re scattered all around the country.
- During transportation, products are not secure from theft, and trucks with containers are often subject to hijacking.
- It’s difficult to plan trips without having any data about container location. You can’t inform your customers, for example, about delivery delays.
- Your company had had to pay detention and demurrage fees as you often didn’t manage to return empty containers to shipping companies on time.
- You actually pay staff members to physically drive to EVERY CONTAINER and check fluid levels, rather than simply attaching a metering device that could report back in real-time at Inteletrack.
The Solution
A GPS fleet management monitoring platform coupled with a live dashboard for real-time container management. Our tracking devices can be covertly installed in such a way that theft is no longer an issue. In addition, you’ll automatically receive reports on any container movement, containers that stay in the warehouse for too long, number of containers in transit or that reside at a client’s location etc.
Benefits:
- Security and Theft Prevention – In the event of theft, customizable in-transit alerts allow you to track the location of your asset in order to reclaim what is rightfully yours.
- Increased Productivity – utilize Inteletrack’s geofencing intelligence to know when shipments arrive or deliveries depart your facility.
- Proper Asset Deployment– Knowing exactly what you have on hand and its availability allows for immediate deployment, which equates to added revenue and a reduction of waste. Fleet companies of all sizes especially have to know what they can send off at any given time to try and achieve a higher utilization rate.
- Maintenance– Receive alerts when it’s time to replace parts based upon metrics (e.g. engine hours)
- Compliance– Physical audits are routine across many industries and not having the required information can be very costly in the form of penalties. Asset tracking provides you the detailed records you need.
- Proof of Service – By providing the exact time and location of your billable asset and service, you will now have the ability to mitigate any disputed charges from your clients.
- Reduced Administrative Costs – Stop sending personnel out into the field to locate assets. It is costly, time consuming, and a wasted deployment of employee resources that can easily be remedied through the use of an asset tracker.
Reliable Trailer Tracking for Your Fleets
Close in function to asset tracking, trailer tracking assists you with the oversight of drop deck or dump trailers and other equipment such as tanks and shipping containers. A GPS device can be attached via magnet or traditionally installed using fasteners on each trailer that provides location and movement data critical for fleet managers. Our included reporting features also provide unauthorized use alerts, alerts when an operator is over hours, and even if your trailer is being moved outside of any given Geofence or authorized location.
