Teletrac Announces All-New Fleet Director, The Next Generation in Fleet Management Software

GARDEN GROVE, Calif., Nov. 3, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Teletrac^® Inc., a leading GPS tracking and fleet management provider, today announces the latest version of its award-winning product, Fleet Director^®. The software empowers companies across multiple industries to improve the productivity and safety levels of their operations.

The enhanced Fleet Director GPS fleet tracking system provides greater control of individual business needs and delivers added user flexibility. The latest update offers robust fleet management tools, such as the ability to monitor fuel consumption, increase driver safety and meet compliance mandates. The all-new Fleet Director is designed for the modern workplace by providing flexibility for managers on-the-go. Users now have full access to Fleet Director's management features via mobile device, in addition to desktop functionality.

"In the current climate, businesses have the ability to achieve high levels of profitability and growth with the help of an advanced fleet management platform," said Tony Eales, President, Teletrac. "The latest version of Fleet Director churns millions of data transactions daily, providing vital information to help meet company goals across multiple industries and workforce sizes. Businesses are equipped with the actionable data necessary to cultivate and develop their company on multiple levels and gain a competitive advantage in their market."

Teletrac modernized Fleet Director in four key fleet management areas: anywhere, anytime mobile access, deeper driver and vehicle behavioral data, enhanced mapping functionality and advanced safety analytics.

"Fleet management has historically been an at-a-desk job, limiting companies in their productivity and communication. The added flexibility of using modern devices- such as smartphones, laptops and tablets- to do business has increased productivity while also adding expectations from customers," said Sid Nair, Director of Product Management, Teletrac. "As the industry has evolved, so have we."

A Look at the New Enhancements

Mobility: Fleet Director allows users to manage their vehicles from any mobile device or browser through new HTML 5 functionality. The software's clear and user-friendly interface lets users navigate easily to a targeted location regardless of whether the manager is in the office or on a mobile phone in the field.  

Actionable Data: The updated software allows managers to move beyond basic track-and-trace functionality, offering an in-depth look at the overall health of a business. The new Fleet Director is built with more robust driver and vehicle behavioral data, providing businesses with insight into performance areas such as fuel management, power take-off time, engine performance and job-site delivery tracking.

Cutting-Edge Mapping Technology: Mapping has moved beyond location tracking with Fleet Director's enhanced interactive features. Vehicle and asset mapping is now accessible on easy-to-use Google Maps that toggle between single and multiple views. Managers can consult Fleet Director to pinpoint the exact road their drivers are on while using Google Street View to zoom into the terrain and makeup of the road. These added map enhancements provide fleet managers with tools to have better control of their business.

Advanced Safety Behavior Data: Fleet Director Safety Analytics helps managers get closer to their fleet through insight into key driver safety events, such as speeding, harsh braking, accelerating, stop sign violations and fast cornering. New data-rich dashboards display relevant information that shows the time and date of each event and the number of infractions per vehicle and driver, including the best and worst performance rankings. Safety infractions can be replayed on the map interface to show how an unsafe driving incident occurred in real-time, providing useful data that can prevent the risk of a crash.
