Smaller firms can benefit just as much from tracking integration
If you thought that just because you only have a handful of vehicles in your business that you can’t benefit from the boons that integrated telematics tracking can offer, think again. There’s a huge number of businesses in the UK that stand to benefit from Haulage Exchange’s industry standard platform.
Not only can it help you cut back on business expenses like fuel, vehicle wear and unnecessarily long journeys, but it can aid in maximising profits too, by making sure that vehicles are filled to capacity as often as possible.
One example of a young, up-and-coming company benefiting from integration is one of our longest running members, Today Team. Run by former pro-rugby player Jamie Boyd. His company has grown from a fledgling firm with just a handful of jobs, to one with a huge turnover and bustling business.
As Jamie expanded though, he realised that he needed to not only keep better track of his vehicles, but also maximise his vans’ usage. Since joining the Exchange, the relationship between the two companies has gone from strength to strength and with the recent integration of TomTom Telematics’ WEBFLEET system Today Team has been able to generate an excess of £40,000 profit.
“Other members are now seeing the location and status of our vehicles in real-time, so we are now receiving incoming job offers,” he said. “This is helping us fill available capacity and create a new revenue stream.”
More so, he’s made savings in time and money back at the HQ too: “We are also reducing admin requirements because not only does the integration automatically update vehicle information, our partners also have live visibility of their loads which cuts down on the number of calls we receive asking for updates.”
Don’t just take Jamie’s word for it though, give Haulage Exchange’s freight trading telematics platform a try today and see just how much more efficient your business could become with our of our finely tuned packages.
