Combination of market-leading telematics positioning and vehicle performance reports will unlock powerful new cost and performance benefits for the transport, fleet and service industries
Cybit, the UK's leading online Telematics Service Provider, has announced plans for new CanBus capabilities that will herald the next generation of fleet management technologies. Companies will be able to combine market-leading position reports from Fleetstar-Online with CanBus-generated vehicle performance data to build powerful and highly configurable reporting suites for their entire fleets - which will unlock a range of new cost savings and efficiency enhancements.
Cybit's CanBus solution holds benefits for both transport, fleet and service companies. The company intends to make its solution available not just to HGV fleets, but to the LCV and car fleet market.
Businesses can see the immediate benefits. Marshalls Plc has already achieved a 15 per cent improvement in delivery efficiency by integrating Fleetstar Online with a dynamic routing scheduling application. Marshalls sees the benefits associated with CanBus delivering the next ten per cent. Stewart Potter Logistics Director Marshalls Plc: "On top of the articulated savings we've made by implementing Cybit’s fleet tracking, we are now looking for a further reduction in fuel expenditure and resulting decrease in our carbon footprint. Working on a strategic level with CanBus based management reports is the next step."
"Effective fuel management and emissions strategies will be a number one focus for companies this year, as they are faced with higher costs at the pumps and increased pressure from government and watch-groups to reduce carbon footprint," commented Richard Horsman, Cybit's Chief Executive Officer. "We believe that visibility of detailed fuel utilisation and driver performance information holds the key to unlocking further savings and will provide the additional management information needed to minimise operational costs."
