Reventive maintenance is paramount to sustaining your fleet’s health and minimizing downtime. It’s crucial to have a solid preventive protocol to ensure your vehicles are in top shape for as long as possible; however, creating a preventive maintenance plan or schedule from scratch is impossible without the right tools. We advise fleet managers/owners to get familiar with the best practices you can implement to optimize fleet downtime prevention. We’ve listed down five most crucial tips: save them to make sure your business is on its way to growth!

Managing a fleet has never been more challenging. Rising insurance premiums, unpredictable fuel costs, and growing maintenance costs combined with the need to keep equipment running efficiently on tight schedules…

Most dispatchers still drag tomorrow's jobs onto the board every morning. Schedule Automation removes the ritual — set a rule on a workflow once, and planned tasks promote themselves onto the active board when their start time is near. It reacts when plans change, and you can still promote any job by hand in one click.

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.

Managing a fleet isn’t just about tracking dots on a map. It’s about knowing exactly what’s happening — and reacting before small issues become big problems. That’s why we rebuilt and expanded the Fleet Chaser Events System. Now, with a cleaner interface and more flexible rules, Events is open to every Fleet Chaser customer.

We are excited to introduce Fleet Chaser Chat, a brand-new feature designed to enhance communication and collaboration within your company. Whether you're coordinating fleet operations, managing employees, or discussing important updates, our chat functionality is built to support your needs.

The most critical components of a fleet are the drivers and the vehicles. It is important that good driving behavior is monitored and encouraged, and fleets are kept safe.. Dash cameras make it possible to catch irresponsible driving early, provide concrete evidence in the event of an accident, and, most importantly, avoid them.

Fleet Management Software: A Compelling Investment for 2024 Nowadays, fleet management has the potential to be ramped up to unprecedented speeds and simplified, yet it can carry much more complex data and realize sophisticated tasks. Pen-and-paper fleet management methods have become competitively disadvantaged, if not obsolete. Innovative fleet solutions are a prerequisite for running a successful fleet — their long list of powerful features and benefits attests to this. If you were contemplating making the jump to fleet software, let this be a solidifying, factual overview of the solution’s advantages to dispel your doubts.

Setting up a real job takes a few minutes — a route, products, a crew, a schedule. Get interrupted halfway and that half-built task used to be gone. Drafts fix that: while you build a task, Fleet Chaser saves it automatically, so you can step away and pick up exactly where you left off. A draft stays private and silent — no task number, no notifications — until you press Create task.
