3. Fleet management comprises the target-oriented, optimal planning,
supervision and control of the fleet operations based on the available
resources, considering internal and external influencing factors.
Special focus is on the integration of organizational processes with
modern information systems.

6. Monitoring the location of a truck, car or
any moving vehicle using the GPS system.
Vehicle tracking systems are commonly
used by fleet operators for fleet
management functions such as fleet
tracking, routing, dispatching, on-board
information and security
GPS Vehicle Tracking

Monitor assets
Prevent inventory loss
Applications
9. Avoid major accidents through speed management
Avoid theft of vehicles through real time tracking
Avoid fuel theft through sensor based alarms
Safety Tracking
10. Route Planning
Route Planning is the working out of the
best route for cost effective distribution that
will minimize any distances travelled with
minimal stopovers along the way.
It is the most efficient plan to serve a
number of orders
11. Scope of routing procedure is to produce an efficient plan of routes,
taking under consideration all the aforementioned parameters, that
minimizes a given objective function.
Scope/Objectives of Route Planning
Objective Function Examples of conflicting objective functions
Minimization of the total distance travelled Increase of total duration, overtimes
Minimization of the total duration of
routes Increase of vehicles, other costs
Minimization of the number of vehicles
needed Increase of total distance and duration
Maximization of capacity (both in capacity
and time) of vehicles Increase of overtimes
