Tracking Technology

To effectively plan jobs we use a piece of software called Haulier Enterprise. Haulier Enterprise is a powerful piece of software which enables our traffic and accounts staff to do a variety of different tasks. Some of these tasks include:

  • Allocate resources such as trucks and trailers to jobs.
  • PODs (Proof of Delivery Notes) can be scanned and uploaded to our integrated (proof of delivery) portal. Through this portal clients can access and view PODs that have been added to the system.
  • Ability to manage and edit company resources such as trucks and trailers.
  • The ability to run and generate different report types.
  • Create and set-up invoice documents for customers, as well as view outstanding invoice documents.

Webfleet Solutions
(formerly Tom Tom Telematics)

To track our fleet of vehicles and trailers we use tracking programs from tracking and navigation providers such as Webfleet Solutions (formerly Tom Tom Telematics). It is extremely important that we know the locations of all of our units. By seeing and knowing the locations of all of our vehicles we are not required to phone a driver each time we want to know their current location. By knowing vehicle locations we can keep our clients updated on the progress of their collections and deliveries.

Knowing exactly where every vehicle is at any moment in time and its exact status takes a dedicated team of calm headed professionals

Tachomaster

We use Tachomaster to ensure driver compliance. Tachomaster allows us to monitor both our vehicle and driver performances to check that we are operating safely within the law.

In-Cab Cameras

All of our vehicles are being fitted with in-cab cameras. These in-cab cameras record a vehicles journey from start to finish. In the event of an accident any footage that has been recorded by an installed vehicle camera can be used as evidence for accident purposes.

Safer Driving Communication

All of our vehicles are equipped with their own mobile phones and Bluetooth hands-free technology, nothing can replace a quick chat when the driver is parked up to find out what exactly is going on and update us on how there day is going. And when hold ups occur its safer for our drivers in emergency situations.

The traffic department monitors every vehicle, every minute of every day. Affording clients peace-of-mind with real-time tracking and reporting
