The company, a leading provider of cryogenic services, has installed the telematics technology across its fleet of vans to help ensure its timekeeping is correct, jobs are scheduled more efficiently, and its drivers remain compliant. The system has helped ensure its drivers get home safely and reduce their risk of harm while transporting liquid nitrogen to jobs.
The system is being used to locate, track and monitor vehicles to ensure the company knows where its vans are at all times and can provide the best utilisation of vehicles and ensure data on mileage and time spent on site is always accurate for billing.
The system also allows Midland Cryogenics to monitor driver behaviour, providing data on speeding, idling, mileage and harsh events, enabling the firm to reduce driver risk.
Donna Burgess-Jowsey, general manager, Midland Cryogenics, said: “Our fleet isn’t the biggest, but the nature of our work means we need to keep our drivers safe, while equally keeping processes efficient and compliant. Telematics has been a huge help for our business in doing this. We can ensure our job scheduling is efficient by tasking the closest driver to a job nearby, we have the data to back up our work history if any invoicing issues were to arise, and we know our drivers are staying safe and not speeding, which could put them at risk.”
