WHO CREATED FLEETPRO?
MY NAME IS DAVID PALMER
I am an IT guy who grew up on a farm and learnt to drive a tractor as soon as my legs were long enough. I have been around trucks and machinery ever since and have over 20 years of experience designing systems, working in the heavy transport industry for much of that time. I have led the IT functions at PBT Transport and TR Group, amongst others in my professional life.
The question for me as a system designer is always: How do I use technologies like GPS, the internet and handheld devices to benefit operating a fleet and moving freight? The reality is that no technology on its own delivers benefits. It is the intersection of people, business process and technology that translate into business benefit.
THAT’S WHERE FLEETPRO COMES IN
FleetPro is a turnkey workflow solution for Fleet Management. It integrates with the broader fleet technologies to provide your people with an easy and simple way to stay on top of the work involved in keeping the fleet functioning at peak efficiency.
While there are many compelling sound reasons to use a system like FleetPro, we understand that the one that will have people using us is that FleetPro is simply the easiest and simplest way to do the job.
FLEETPRO TECHNOLOGY
FLEETPRO LEVERAGES MICROSOFT’S AZURE PLATFORM
However, FleetPro’s key technology feature is its ability to integrate with other systems. FleetPro pulls data from many sources and brings it together in one place. If someone has gathered information about your equipment (for instance, COF, RUC, registration and HPMV permits at the NZTA, mileage and location information from a GPS or details of work carried out on a workshop invoice), FleetPro can import that information, put it in order and make it available to your team in a helpful way.
FleetPro’s use of Microsoft Azure means FleetPro customers receive world-scale infrastructure reliability, security, scalability, and redundancy coupled with local development. FleetPro customers have the best of big corporate stability and local boutique flexibility.
HOW IS FLEETPRO DIFFERENT?
FLEETPRO IS A TURNKEY BUSINESS PROCESS RATHER THAN A TECHNOLOGY
FleetPro is about putting the right information in front of the right person at the right time and enabling them to act on it.
FleetPro does this by gathering information, pulling all the related issues together and presenting them in simple to-do lists and planner views. FleetPro then facilitates people to act by providing simple tick and click workflows to get things done.
While FleetPro might give you some new insights to your fleet, its primary focus is to streamline the work of managing your fleet. FleetPro is specifically designed for heavy commercial equipment operating in New Zealand.
We understand how heavy equipment is different to light commercial and have built our processes accordingly. They are also designed specifically for New Zealand’s unique regulatory and compliance regime.
