The installation of ServicePower’s
SERVICEGPS asset tracking product
enabled Mobile Images to identify key field behaviors,
such as non-compliance to scheduled routes and personal
usage of company property, in addition to others, that
resulted in increased gas expense.
Mobile Images was also better able to track
and manage the location of their vehicles, filled with
expensive remote diagnostic imaging equipment, through
the ability to see current and historic vehicle movements,
as well as the use of GPS tools such as geo-fencing and
speed alerts.
Specific improvement in field vehicle use,
due solely to the installation of SERVICEGPS,
have been implemented successfully at Mobile Images. |
