Through TRACKER, Cento also aims to significantly improve its fleet security and productivity and reduce fleet mileage, operational costs and fuel consumption.
‘Our fleet vehicles bear the Cento brand, so it’s essential that our drivers are ambassadors out on the road,’ explained Collette Murphy, commercial manager for Cento Engineering Company.
‘TRACKER’s cutting edge fleet telematics offers us up-to-date and accurate data on driver behaviour. This allows us to highlight areas for improvement and offer our drivers appropriate training and advice, as an essential part of our brand management. In addition, we can quickly identify mobile and stationary vehicles, allowing us to update customers on a delivery, strengthening our service offering.
‘Our partnership with TRACKER puts us firmly in control of our fleet, ensuring Cento maintains its market-leading position across the UK construction industry.’
TRACKER’s fleet telematics solutions incorporate unique features, such as patented Transient Voltage Detection technology. This detects electrical noise to more accurately determine when an engine is running and eliminating false ‘idling’ readings, a concern prevalent in many of today’s alternative offerings.
The system also provides fleet managers with driver performance information, as well as a flexible reporting suite that can be customised to meet the specific needs of each customer. TRACKER even offers battery powered modules to ensure assets, which have no built-in power supply, such as mobile units and trailers, can be monitored.
Stephen Doran, managing director of TRACKER, added, ‘We are working closely with Cento to deliver a telematics solutions tailored to its specific needs. The team is already reaping the benefits of the enhanced level of data the TRACKER system provides, allowing Cento to manage its fleet more efficiently as it moves across the UK and Ireland.’
