driver ID
Know who was driving, not just which vehicle moved.

A 30-second message, in his own voice
In a fleet where vehicles and machines are shared, location data answers only half the question. A speeding alert on a pooled truck tells you a truck was speeding, not who was in it. An excavator that ran eleven hours tells you nothing about which of three operators ran it, or which job to bill. The moment anything is disputed - a ticket, a damaged machine, a customer's hours - the record is about a plate or a serial number, and the conversation goes nowhere.
The driver touches a fob to a reader at the start and end of a shift. Trips between those points are attributed to that person, and the record shows who operated what, when and where.
A sealed Bluetooth ID tag can be carried or fitted instead, read by the tracker when it is in range. It is IP67, weighs 18 g and runs more than ten years on its cell with nothing to charge.
Reports that read by operator rather than by vehicle, which is the form you need when the question is about somebody's day rather than a truck's day.
Where several people share a machine, hours can be split by who was on it - the basis for costing a job or checking an invoice.
Not just vans. Shared loaders, excavators and lifts can carry a reader so the operator of record is attached to the machine's hours.
Over-speed, harsh braking and excessive idling are recorded by the tracker anyway. Driver ID is what makes them attributable, and therefore worth acting on.
The operator identifies themselves with a fob or a Bluetooth tag.
Position, trips, engine hours and driving events are recorded against that person as well as the vehicle.
Reports can be read by operator or by vehicle, whichever the question calls for.
The same reader goes on the machine, so hours are attached to whoever ran it.
In our experience there is no fixed average, but realistically an hour of payroll, a couple of gallons of fuel and one extra service call is about $200 to $300 a month for most industries. That is roughly 5 to 10 times the monthly cost, and it starts immediately rather than in six months.
A small, waterproof Bluetooth tag that identifies a tool, trailer, container or driver to a nearby tracker. Up to 10+ years of battery.
A compact hardwired tracker with a backup battery and the inputs and outputs to read sensors and switch a relay. For vehicles and trailers that need more than a position.

We do not buy out existing contracts with other providers.
Either with a fob touched to a reader at the start and end of a shift, or with a sealed Bluetooth tag the tracker reads when it is in range. Which one suits depends on the vehicle, the work and how many people share it - we will go through it with you.
The trip is still recorded against the vehicle, it simply is not attributed to a person. How you want that handled is a policy decision rather than a technical one, and it is worth settling before the system goes in. Tell us what you want to happen and we will set up the alerting side to match.
Yes, and you should want to. Depending on your province and whether your business is federally regulated, you may also have specific legal obligations - Ontario, for instance, requires employers above a certain size to keep a written electronic monitoring policy. We have written a plain-language guide on where the law stands.
Yes. Shared loaders, excavators and lifts are one of the better uses, because machine hours are what get billed and disputed.
No. It is sealed to IP67 and runs more than ten years at a ten-second broadcast interval. The cell is not replaceable, so at the end of its life the tag is replaced rather than serviced.
The tracker records over-speed, harsh braking, harsh acceleration and excessive idling regardless. Driver ID is what ties those events to a person rather than to a plate.
No, and it does not work if that is how it is introduced. The system produces a record. What changes behaviour is a written policy, explained in advance and applied to everyone the same way - the record is what makes the policy enforceable.
We will tell you straight whether we can help. If we cannot, we will say so and thank you for your time.
No contracts. Cancel any time and keep the hardware. If you are not happy in the first 30 days, we buy it back.
