Reduce Cost and Maximise Productivity with a Vehicle Tracking Device

For a logistic or courier company, keeping track of vehicles and what their drivers are doing are a major challenge. They are clueless on the whereabouts of the lorries laden with their clients’ goods and have to rely only on the honesty of their staff to do their job.



However, in today’s competitive business landscape coupled with the increasing pressure to minimise opportunity, overhead and profit losses while ensuring steady revenue streams, everything must be accounted for. Thus, a proper and ideal fleet management solution that sees through all the business operations is essential.



Realising this need, many companies are investing in a vehicle tracking and management device to prevent board-level issues. This device is based on an advance software technology fixed in a vehicle that provides accurate movements and location of a lorry. With a vehicle tracking device, logistics, courier as well as transport companies can facilitate and take control of their operations while reducing costs.



Presently, Geotab Go5 Compact is the leading GPS tracking device that allows businesses to:

● Significantly reduce operational costs through implementation of a powerful telematics solution

● Enhance customer satisfaction

● improve asset and employee safety





The Geotab GO5 Compact is a revolutionary new car tracking GPS solution from Securatrak. It has a “fit in your hand” design and allows simple DIY installation eliminating costly and professional engineering which is an additional cost savings to a business. Once connected, the GO5 Compact vehicle tracking device will automatically deliver precise GPS based telemetry information.
