Sept. 5, 2012 - PRLog -- NexTraq, the value leader of GPS fleet tracking and vehicle management solutions, announces today that the NexTraq™ Fleet Tracking platform has helped service businesses increase efficiency by 50 percent.  With more than 25 reports and 17 real-time alerts, the NexTraq Fleet Tracking platform offers the service business industry the ability to monitor, track and manage fleet operations.

With the NexTraq Fleet Tracking platform, service businesses in various industries have identified areas that can be improved, such as customer service, fuel efficiency, and driver safety.  Incorporating the NexTraq Fleet Dispatch application into fleet operations allows dispatchers to route drivers on the fly, resulting in accurate ETAs for customers and better worker productivity.

Brandy Waugh, Officer Manager of Mr. Rooter of Amarillo said, “Dispatching our fleet accurately and timely has become at least 50% more efficient due to the Fleet Dispatch application.”

The NexTraq Fleet Tracking platform helped Jeff Dumas, Vice President of Acres Group North, recover $30,000 worth of equipment and vehicles.  Service business owners will have peace of mind knowing that an email or mobile alert will be sent if a vehicle moves after business hours or leaves a job site. Dumas said, “One of our managers was watching the vehicles’ movement on the NexTraq application and was able to guide the police to the vehicle in time to arrest the thieves.”

Mike Scarbrough, CEO of NexTraq, said, “For service business owners, managing their fleet operations is crucial. A loss in equipment affects efficiency, resulting in decreased revenue. With the NexTraq Fleet Tracking platform, service businesses’ can improve security, customer satisfaction and overall fleet productivity.”

Service businesses could lower insurance premiums by monitoring driver behavior and improving safety using the Speed Alerts functionality to pinpoint aggressive drivers. Wasteful idling can be reduced using the NexTraq Idle Report, which saves money on fuel costs and improves fuel efficiency.
