GPS Insight Launches Next Generation of User Defined Alerts
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. --(Business Wire)-- Apr 06, 2009
GPS
Insight, a leading supplier of GPS tracking hardware and software
solutions for commercial and municipal fleet vehicles, announces it has
launched the next generation of user defined alerts.
These next-generation options go beyond the typical fleet management
functionality and help customers precisely react to unexpected
situations with their fleet, as well as notify drivers of the violation
in real time via SMS text message or email to their phone.
A combination of speeding, idling, long stop, landmark visit, and
odd-hours/weekend usage may now be used to custom tailor an exact alert
for customers.
Practical uses of these new alerts include:
-
Alert when drivers are at their home within work hours on weekdays
-
Alert when excessive idling occurs except in known maintenance areas
-
Send a driver an alert when they are speeding within known
construction areas
-
Alert for different speeds during different times of day such as
daytime and nighttime
-
Send a driver an alert when their vehicle moves from their home at
night in case it is being stolen
The first GPS Insight customer to use these alerts reduced total idling
from 42% to 27% within two months, saving 40,000 gallons of fuel and
achieving tremendous ROI. This 2-month case study was documented in
August here: http://blog.gpsinsight.com/?p=325.
GPS Insight has now released this capability for the benefit all of
their customers.
These enhanced alerts are in addition to vehicle maintenance reminders
and engine diagnostic trouble codes which continue to function as they
have in the past.
