GPS Tracking Solutions for Transportation and Logistics

Logistics and transportation operations largely determine the success or failure of any business. It all starts with the timely shipment of materials used to manufacture products. 

Then, delivering those products to the end customer requires a reliable system for locating, monitoring and managing vehicle fleets. Our experience here at HUNTER confirms this every day through the customers who use our GPS tracking system, Hunter Track. 

‍

Of course, to achieve this, this satellite tracking method relies on geolocation technology and other features that deliver solutions and benefits for both the fleet and the company.  Here you'll learn how they maximize profits and simplify operations for any logistics and transportation company.  

Solutions for every aspect of fleet management 

Solutions that ensure security

Security in a vehicle GPS tracking system  comes from several features, including the following:

‍

• Precise location of every vehicle or truck throughout the Dominican Republic. Vehicle GPS also uses a digital map that makes it quick and easy to see each location. This makes it possible to send help or warn drivers about incidents on the road so they can take detours or precautions. 
• Remote shutdown and ignition lock from the HUNTER monitoring center. If there's any doubt about an incident, theft or unauthorized route changes, the vehicle can be stopped from continuing its trip. 
• Instant SMS notifications. In any situation, the company or the monitoring center receives immediate alerts for door openings or other suspicious activity. This makes it possible to alert the authorities or send help if needed. 
• Driver identification through a radio-frequency coded key. The driver must open and start the vehicle with this key, and the date and time are recorded. As a result, you can always determine who is responsible for the vehicle. 

Solutions to reduce operating costs

The operating costs of running a fleet specialized in logistics and freight transportation can be very high. That's because vehicle movement is the core of the operation, and vehicles spend most of their time running and on the road. But with a satellite GPS tracking system, you can optimize performance with solutions such as:

‍

• Planning shorter routes or choosing roads that may be in better condition.
• Detecting theft or tampering by setting alerts for door openings or route deviations.
• Tracking driver habits, such as speeding or harsh braking, to see whether they're increasing fuel consumption. 
• Optimizing the use and lifespan of the vehicle and its mechanical parts with timely replacements.

Fuel solutions

Fuel consumption is one of a transportation company's biggest expenses, so an effective control system is essential. The GPS tracking solution makes that possible. 

‍

For starters, you can set vehicle speed limits. If the driver exceeds them, alerts and notifications can be triggered. And once the trip is complete, you can measure consumption together with mileage and travel time. 

‍

This makes it possible to detect unauthorized variations. You can also monitor driving errors and schedule training based on them. The tracking system identifies each event and links it to the specific driver. 

‍

Solutions to improve the customer experience

The customer is the focus of every effort in transportation and logistics companies, and any delay or unexpected event can be handled with a GPS Tracking System. You can boost competitiveness by improving on-time delivery in the following ways:

‍

• Sharing the vehicle's real-time location along the route.
• Providing estimated arrival times.
• Sharing short videos of route progress.
• Planning better routes to guarantee deliveries within the promised times.
