A Vehicle Management System is a software or application that is installed in a vehicle to primarily collect data that aids in monitoring of the cars and the engagements. Once the operator logs in, the software is activated and the data is collected when the car sets in motion.

The data collected is very useful to the management or other stake holders. It helps in monitoring activities the car has been involved in, where the car has been and generally how the car has been used.

The system is highly recommended in establishments with a fleet of vehicles, though not limited to that. It helps in cutting down the company’s cost as the stake holders can advise factually and eliminate unreasonable costs of running the company’s vehicles.

It enhances productivity as it aids the operating of a company’s transport unit with minimal costs and reduces unnecessary engagements of the vehicles considerably helping to curb avoidable overheads. At the same time it helps maximize the use of available vehicles.

Benefits of the Vehicle Management Systems are vast. With the availability of records provided by the system, it helps a company forecast and have realistic projections. It also assists in auditing, planning, laying down of policies, structures and strategies. Monitoring of drivers is also made possible to ascertain if they are driving safely.

Security of the fleet is heightened as the vehicles can be easily tracked in case of theft, loss or should the car be used in crime.

The Vehicle Management System is therefore a must have for any business that would wish to operate its fleet at the lowest cost possible, efficiently and with minimal risks, which is the dream of every business.
