Telematics benefits: Redtail Telematics and some of our recent highlights…

It is fair to say that our team of innovators never stop thinking and acting and creating. In fact, they would much prefer to be dreaming up the new to maintaining the current. But of course, we are committed to both and execute with rigour and our customary dedication to quality. Here are a few recent highlights:

Dashboards and Dashcards

Previously, we talked about our App and Tag solution (see our App and Tag low mileage UBI solution and our Redtail Bluetooth Tag blog posts).  In addition, we also offer a suite of dashboards to help businesses monitor the health of their fleet and stay informed about any incidents. Our Dashcards feature allows businesses to monitor bespoke key metrics.  These include; fuel consumption, engine performance, and driver behavior on a single NOC (network operations center) board. This makes it easy for fleet managers to identify any issues and take action to improve efficiency and reduce costs.

Crashboard and Crashcards

Our Crashboard is another valuable tool for businesses. It displays real-time information about any crashes that occur in your fleet on a map, which makes it easy to identify where incidents are occurring and to take action to improve safety. The Crashboard also includes crash analysis and reconstruction capabilities. These can help businesses understand the causes of incidents and take steps to prevent them from happening again.

Fleetmap

Finally, our Fleetmap feature allows businesses to view live and historical journeys.  This can be used to optimise routes, improve efficiency, and reduce costs. Also, the Fleetmap includes real-time tracking, geofencing, and alerts. These can help businesses stay informed about the location and status of their vehicles at all times. Overall, these feature-rich innovations provide a comprehensive solution for businesses looking to optimize their fleet operations and reduce costs.

Telematics for Fleet Management

For a Fleet Manager, driver behaviour is one of the most important factors in fleet management. Poor driving habits can lead to increased fuel consumption, higher maintenance costs, and even accidents. Therefore, monitoring driver behaviour is crucial for any business that operates a fleet. Telematics for fleet management allows fleet managers to monitor their fleet driver behaviours.

Comprehensive driver monitoring

Redtail Telematics offers a comprehensive driver monitoring solution that can help you identify patterns of inefficiency and address them. Our telematics system tracks a variety of data points, including speed, rapid acceleration, and hard braking. This data can be used to identify drivers who exhibit these behaviours and address the issue with specific individuals.

In addition to identifying and addressing aggressive driving habits, Redtail Telematics also offers a feature that allows you to set and monitor compliance with specific rules and policies. For example, you can set a speed limit for your vehicles and receive alerts when a driver exceeds that limit. This can help you ensure that your drivers are operating your vehicles safely and responsibly.

Using telematics to identify fatigue

Another important aspect of driver monitoring is identifying and addressing fatigue. Drowsy driving is a major cause of accidents and it’s important to keep track of the driver’s hours of service and schedule. Our system allows you to monitor the driving hours of your drivers and schedule the breaks and rest time to help prevent fatigue.
