What is more, the majority of ‘pin on a map’ vehicle tracking solutions are generally inaccurate, and managers who deploy them are usually motivated by the idea of ‘weeding out’ those who are not pulling their weight, and the instantaneous change in driver behaviour which occurs when the team know they are being tracked. The problem with this is, if managers need to confront problems with staff and the data is inaccurate, it completely undermines the vehicle tracking solution, the management approach and indeed the investment. What managers should be looking for is vehicle tracking that is accurate and available (consistently reporting), and that can offer insight into the workflow of the business in context, as only this will really guarantee a return on investment over and above the cost of the vehicle tracking solution.
