API (integration with external software)
Your human resources department needs a way to extract from Frotcom a list of mileages per driver, per month. They don’t want to exchange an endless number of Excel files. They want to click a button in your HR software and import the mileage for each driver. It’s as simple as that.
GPS trailer and asset tracking
Your fleet manager hangs up the phone after a long talk with yet another driver. He turns to you with a nod, confirming what you already suspected. There is a semitrailer missing.
Automatic driver identification system
You get a speed camera ticket in the mail. The vehicle’s license plate is clearly identified and you use Frotcom’s records to confirm that the vehicle was indeed speeding at the place and time reported by the police. You need to speak to the driver. The problem is the vehicle was used by various drivers. You cannot determine who was driving the vehicle at that particular time.
Fleet cost management
What is your fleet’s current cost per km? Chances are you do not know the answer to that question.In fact, there is no exact answer. It all depends on how you calculate it. For instance, the answer will be different if you use the average costs of the last 3 months or of the last 12 months.How should you calculate when bidding on a tender, for instance? Which one is more conservative? Which one is more aggressive? You are safer with the first but have a better chance of winning the tender with the latter.
