In fleet management, commercial vehicle operations are handled on a large scale. This involves monitoring fleet activities and making decisions related to asset management, dispatch, routing, and vehicle acquisition. The goal is to control costs, increase productivity, manage fuel consumption, and ensure compliance. Costs are maintained, profitability maximized, and risks associated with fleet vehicles reduced by fleet managers. The importance of fleet management is growing due to safety concerns, government regulations, and the increasing adoption of wireless technology. However, limiting factors include cost sensitivity and a lack of seamless internet connectivity.
Various vehicle types are encompassed within fleet management, including light commercial vehicles, heavy commercial vehicles, aircraft, railway, and watercraft.
In the navichain SaaS platform, fleet management functionality primarily focuses on vehicles using roads. However, Navichain is fully capable of handling vehicles for rail, air, and sea transportation as well.
