Background A top logistics company sought an effective way to streamline operations and reduce downtime across a diverse vehicle fleet. After assessing several options, they selected ERM Advanced Telematics’ eData diagnostics and StarLINK Tracker to enhance tracking accuracy and vehicle health monitoring.
Challenges
High Downtime and Maintenance Costs: Frequent breakdowns and maintenance issues disrupted productivity.
Driver Behavior Monitoring: Real-time data was needed to minimize accident risks and improve driving habits.
