Delivery firm Expert Logistics has decided to implement the Microlise fleet performance solution on 139 vehicles within its fleet, with a target of a 5% fuel saving.

The Microlise fleet performance package provides a range of in-vehicle technology options and reports which gives customers the information required to readily understand the utilisation and performance of their vehicles and drivers within their fleet.

As part of the solution, the Microlise Telematics Units (MTU3) is fitted to the vehicle, including a connection to the FMS databus.

The MTU3 then generate real-time data about the vehicles location and usage as well as detailed information relating to how the vehicle is being driven which allows customers to then target improvements in both fuel economy and safe driving.

By implementing this system Expert will be able to monitor and measure vehicle and driver performance as well as fleet utilisation in order to help drive maximum operational efficiency and productivity.

Driver performance and safety are the key reasons for implementing the system and Expert hopes to achieve a minimum 5% fuel saving.
