Let’s talk about stress in the work place.
We’re all familiar with it and we all deal with it in some form or fashion. In today’s 24/7 global economy, the typical 9 to 5 has become a thing of the past. With technological advances in communication, the workday rarely ends when you shut your computer down at the end of the day. The now ubiquitous smartphone has become both a blessing and a curse. It’s a blessing because you’re always in touch and know what’s going on. It’s a curse because you’re always in touch and know what’s going on.
Ever want to throw that thing out of a 10th story window? You’re not alone.
Studies show that one in every four employees sees their job as the main thing causing stress in their lives. The point is, we’re all stressed at work. And if your business operates a fleet of vehicles, chances are you have a Fleet Management Team that’s pulling its hair out on a daily basis. Keeping track of all those trucks, setting up delivery routes, managing spiking fuel costs and maintenance costs, working around road construction and traffic, and making sure your drivers get to their stops on time are among the many daunting tasks facing your team every day. Talk about stress.
But what if there was a technological solution that could greatly reduce the stress on the members of your Fleet Management Team, not to mention those counting the beans?
- What if your Route Manager could plan routes quicker and more efficiently?
- What if your Dispatcher had real-time visibility to the location of every one of your trucks, at any time?
- What if your maintenance crew knew what needed to be serviced before the truck even arrived back to the depot?
- What if your drivers knew that they could be instantly re-routed if they encounter unexpected traffic or blocked roads?
- What if you could pack your trucks more efficiently to get more product out the door in less time?
- What if you could greatly reduce your fuel costs, and avoid losing profits when prices rise?
