The document discusses how connecting trucks with technology can help transport companies improve efficiency, safety, and compliance. Connected trucks can collect vast amounts of useful data on driver behavior, fuel usage, routes, maintenance needs, and more. This data gives companies insights to reduce costs, increase productivity, and ensure legal compliance regarding issues like fatigue monitoring and mass limits. The document provides examples of how specific technologies like GPS tracking, electronic document management, and satellite communications can help transport companies optimize operations and unlock savings across their fleets.
