1. Safe Driving
Safety is a top priority for drivers. It can be measured by tracking several indicators, such as speeding, sudden acceleration, harsh braking, and sharp cornering. Aggressive driving practices contribute significantly to vehicle wear and tear, the safety of cargo and any goods or passengers being transported, and fuel wastage. All of these factors increase costs such as repairs and maintenance, fuel consumption, and replacement expenses due to damaged goods or passenger-related incidents. The risk of losses also increases due to downtime caused by vehicle damage or driver accidents.
Cartrack Features for Tracking Driving Safety KPIs
The Cartrack fleet management system offers several features that you can use to assess driving safety, such as driving behaviour alerts (speeding, sudden acceleration, harsh braking, and sharp cornering), a fleet performance dashboard, and a range of automated reports (Driver Safety Report, Driver Scorecard, Risk Management Report, Trip Report, etc.). You can see when, where, and how often drivers engage in these behaviours, as well as their average speed on each trip. Cartrack also provides an AI-powered Live Vision camera feature that can trigger video recording when it detects risky driving behaviours such as tailgating, distracted driving, fatigue, drowsiness, and mobile phone use.
2. Efficiency
Driver efficiency can be measured based on vehicle activity, with indicators such as schedule adherence, number and location of stops, idle rate, and vehicle utilisation. Fleet managers can monitor whether drivers are starting shifts or arriving late at delivery locations, misusing or overusing vehicles, wasting fuel by leaving the engine running while the vehicle is stopped/parked (idling), and making inefficient trips due to excessive stops at inappropriate locations.
Cartrack Features to Track Efficiency KPIs
- To track schedule adherence, you can use the starter alerts or Trip Reports feature. You'll see when they start and end their trips each day.
- For the number and location of stops, you can use the Stop Time Report, which provides the location, geofence, starter stop and start times, and stop duration.
- To monitor your idle levels, you can use the idle alert feature, a dashboard that compares idle and driving duration levels between vehicles, and the Idle Report that provides start and end times, locations, and idle duration.
- To find out the efficiency of vehicle utilisation, you can use the unscheduled usage warning feature and the dashboard that compares usage between vehicles based on trips and distance travelled.
3. Productivity
To support the overall goals of fleet operations, you need to ensure that each of your drivers contributes in a balanced way, without overworking or underperforming. You can assess balanced productivity across drivers using several indicators, such as working and rest hours, number of trips, distance travelled, and time spent in specific areas. These KPIs require managers to make careful comparisons between drivers, as expectations will differ between urban drivers and long-distance or inter-island drivers.
Cartrack Features to Track Productivity KPIs
You can start by adding the driver identification tag feature to clearly determine which driver is using which vehicle. After that, you can use the Driver-Based Trip Report to view the number of trips, trip duration, and distance travelled. A single trip is calculated from when the engine is started until it is switched off, meaning the number of trips does not necessarily reflect the number of deliveries or tasks completed. To accurately track completed jobs, you can add Cartrack’s efficient driver assignment feature, namely Delivery. To ensure your drivers do not become fatigued, you can activate the excessive driving duration alert. For example, if you set a limit of 240 minutes, you will receive a notification when a driver has been driving continuously for more than 4 hours, prompting them to take a break.
Monitoring KPIs helps you measure efficiency in key fleet areas that are important to your business. By understanding KPIs, your decision-making to improve your fleet becomes more effective and focused. The Cartrack fleet management system, with its range of features, can make it easier for you to monitor and set the right KPIs for drivers to support the growth of your fleet.
