Operating a fleet requires greater-scale management to ensure performance optimization, expense reduction, and efficient cost distribution. Without outlining a budget that keeps track of every expenditure and point of resource consumption, financing and running a fleet business becomes very complicated and unproductive.

Keeping your trucks on the road means keeping your business running. A single defect can pose a major setback to your fleet, sacrificing time, money, and customer satisfaction. “Prevention is better than cure” applies here pretty much. That’s why extending the lifetime of your trucks boils down to preventive maintenance: knowing what type of issues are likely to arise and addressing them early on. Take a proactive approach to your truck’s upkeep and find out how to avoid the five most common breakdown causes.

But your drivers may need to be on board with that decision. How do you do what’s best for your drivers and fleet without harming driver trust while juggling legal concerns? Not to worry. Here are crucial points to keep in mind in your efforts to equip your fleet with dash cams while preserving driver privacy:

Live Share update: share a vehicle by link and let your customer see not just the live map, but the route history for the exact days you worked their site.

A construction dispatcher fields the same four calls all day — where are you, did you finish, when's the truck coming, which site. None are emergencies, but together they burn about two hours. Here's where the time goes — and the first call to move off the phone.

Assets is a new Console section for the things that are not vehicles. Give a tool a QR sticker, see where it was last scanned, and let your crew sign it out by filling a form on the phone.

Every part of the Employee App's navigation moved: the bar along the bottom, the menu behind the hamburger, and the first screen your crew sees. The new one is built around the shift.

The Progress tab is the single place that shows how a task was actually worked — built from real entries drivers create as they go, not a summary someone reassembled later. A per-employee timeline, live per-product totals, and a filterable log of every load and delivery, with every edit kept on the activity log so corrections never erase the truth.
