Telematics Software Integrations for Your TMS
Telematics is a must-have feature for trucking and freight companies that transforms fleet management with a combined system that implements GPS capabilities, vehicle sensors, and wireless technology. Armed with telematics software integrations for your Transportation Management System (TMS), fleet managers have unmitigated access to vehicle location data, vehicle diagnostics that inform preventative maintenance, and technology that can monitor driver performance and behavior. This innovative solution for fleet management has the ability to drive success for your freight company — and TransPlus TMS provides the platform and integration solutions you need to succeed.
The Benefits of Telematics Modules and Integrations for Freight Companies
Integrating dedicated telematics software with your Transportation Management System provides impressive benefits for freight companies, that range from significant fuel savings to improved safety metrics. Industry statistics show that fleets implementing advanced tracking and telematics report up to a 55% reduction in fuel costs because of optimized routing and reduced idle time. These integrations also allow carriers to protect their bottom line by reducing delays by as much as 58% with real-time visibility.
Beyond the road — the financial impact of telematics is clear — with more than 60% of telematics users reporting a positive Return on Investment (ROI) after implementation. For freight carriers handling sensitive or climate-controlled cargo, these integrations provide an added layer of protection with instant alerts for equipment failures. With this level of synchronization, freight companies can protect profits from cargo loss and insurance claims while ensuring long-term success.
Key Advantages of Integrated Telematics Software
Enhanced Real-Time Tracking
Telematics enable proactive dispatching and rerouting in response to delays or increased traffic while providing customers with faster, more accurate shipping updates.
Fuel Efficiency & Optimization
Telematics software has the capability to identify high-cost behaviors such as excessive idling, harsh braking, and aggressive driving to lower overall fuel costs.
Automated Maintenance Alerts
With the ability to connect directly to vehicle diagnostics, Telematics provides fleet managers with real-time engine fault codes and scheduled maintenance reminders based on mileage.
Improved Driver Safety
Telematics integrations monitor high-risk driving habits enabling companies to deliver targeted coaching and develop performance-based safety incentives.
Theft Prevention & Recovery
Innovative geo-tracking can be used to pinpoint the precise location of off-road assets and equipment for better transparency and faster asset recovery.
Telematics Integrations Available for TransPlus TMS
A high-performance TMS serves as the foundation of your freight business — but its true power is unlocked via connectivity and software integrations that bridge the gap between your hardware and your administrative staff. The telematics integrations available for TransPlus TMS use a sophisticated combination of satellite positioning for precise GPS mapping and satellite communications to ensure data flows no matter where drivers are. This level of synergy allows for a fully-integrated workflow, eliminating the need to switch between multiple apps by collecting sensor and location data from providers like Omnitracs, iBright, and AnyTrek, and integrating it directly into your primary management platform.
