Fleet management software allows individuals to perform a structured series of steps in relation to the management of a fleet of automobiles, trucks or other transport-related vehicles operated by a business, private firm, or other non-profit organization. The software is capable of storing data regarding the vehicle's maintenance history, fuel consumption and mileage as well as the locations where vehicles are kept on a regular basis. It is also capable of providing the business with accurate mapping information based on recent GPS updates and real-time traffic conditions that affect the fleet as well as the routes to be used for vehicles. The reports generated by the software can then be analyzed to provide recommendations regarding areas of improvement as well as areas where immediate action is recommended.

The first step in using fleet management software begins by uploading all relevant information regarding the vehicles to be monitored. This includes address, license plate number, vehicle identification number (VIN), registration number, make, model and year of each vehicle being used. These factors are important in the calculation of the costs of upkeep and repairs as well as the estimated life expectancy of each vehicle.

The next step to take when using the dashboard fleet management software provided by Rhino Fleet Tracking is to enter a list of these vehicles into the program. Depending on the nature of the task, it could either be a short list or a very large one. If the task requires the collection of numerous detailed historical details about individual vehicles it is necessary to create a specialized dashboard that allows access from multiple devices.

As soon as a potential vehicle location is entered into the program it will generate a map of the area based on the current GPS coordinates. The entire area can be viewed in three dimensional views as well as be zoomed in and out. A map of the area can be shared with other fleet management systems, including those run by third parties, allowing them to view the exact location of the vehicles in question.

When detailing maintenance and service history for vehicles in question, the detail can also be presented in monthly plans. Vehicle information can be categorized into categories ranging from daily maintenance records to repair history. When making changes to the vehicles in question, there are a number of options available. Most dashboards provided by the fleet management software include a tab for vehicle routing, maintenance records and repairs. Other self-service options include the ability to print out checks and receipts, print reports and data sheets.

For companies that have a large fleet or that require regular maintenance of vehicles, an in-depth knowledge of vehicles can only help. This is where the mobile apps for fleet management software can be useful. With these apps, companies can gain access to detailed information on vehicle condition and mileage. They can also set parameters for alerts and reporting when vehicles go below a certain threshold.

Fleet management software can also work as a platform for third party vendors. When integrated into existing business systems, it allows for easy reference and quick reference when questions regarding fleet maintenance, fuel management and vehicle maintenance arise. Vehicle telematics apps for fleet management software typically provide comprehensive coverage on repair history, mileage covered and total miles driven. They can also provide information on emissions levels for both diesel and non-diesel engines. Fuel telematics provides reports on average fuel consumption over time and historical fuel consumption trends.

Fleet management software with mobile apps has a number of advantages. It helps businesses save on costs related to fuel, maintenance and preventive measures. Since fleet vehicles are tracked via GPS and fleet monitoring systems, repairs can be scheduled as needed. Vehicles can be easily tracked down in case of theft or vehicle malfunction. It also enables efficient vehicle telematics processes, such as the scheduling of maintenance visits and the reporting of maintenance issues. With the use of fleet tracking systems, businesses can enjoy the benefits of improved customer relations, higher productivity and lower costs.
