Fleet management
Reduce the expense of Vehicle Off Road (VOR)
Using granular and customisable insights from Geotab’s Maintenance Centre, you can improve fleet health, increasing uptime and significantly reducing the costs associated with having expensive, specialist vehicles (and the equipment in them) off the road.
Get 100% visibility
Geotab’s reliable, secure and safe solution connects to all vehicles and drivetrains, and is always available. The solution integrates seamlessly with third party hardware and systems, including weighing platforms, camera providers and fuel cards, giving you the data insights to make your life easier.
Save with sustainability
With Geotab’s Sustainability Centre, you can proactively improve your existing fleet’s fuel economy to save on fuel costs and reduce emissions.
Health and Safety & Compliance
Customised to fit
Geotab’s highly customisable fleet safety and compliance solutions support managers from monitoring trends and benchmarking driver performance, to delivering real-time coaching based on risky behaviours identified by AI-powered dash cameras.
Benefit from the flexibility to create multiple walkaround checks for different vehicle types, depots, regions and safety policies.
Get your drivers home safely
Geotab’s Safety Centre insights allow for active management and risk-reduction strategies, so that you can set actions and measure their effects on your risk score to calculate how many fewer accidents your fleet will have.
- Localised compliance
Reduce your risk of internal and external compliance infringements, with highly modular and customisable safety hardware and software that can be activated according to different regions’ or business units’ requirements, all while prioritising driver safety.
Sustainability / ESG teams
- Drive down Scope 1 emissions
Use the insights from Geotab’s Sustainability Centre to reduce the Scope 1 emissions of your current fleet, identifying preventable inefficiencies and engaging drivers in the fleet’s sustainability journey. - Confidently transition to electric
Create a data-driven strategy for fleet electrification to reach Net Zero targets, identifying which vehicles can be switched to electric today, and quantifying the financial and environmental savings. Use heat map and dwell time analysis to identify external charging locations to mitigate the load requirements on internal infrastructure. Optimise EV performance
Get the fastest ROI out of your electric vehicles by ensuring they are optimally utilised, with live state of charge (SOC) data providing range confidence.Optimally manage EV charging, so that they are always ready for the start of their shifts, and compare their “fuel” efficiency against that of conventionally fueled vehicles in one platform.
Seamless expandability with Geotab
Geotab’s platform is fully expandable and able to seamlessly integrate with existing vehicle hardware such as weighing platforms, camera providers and fuel cards to streamline workflows and simplify fleet management. Operational integrations including driver behaviour monitoring, cameras, workflow analysis and collision prevention detection allow managers to see all these insights in a single platform. This holistic view adds crucial context, helping fleet and safety teams to drive efficiencies and improve compliance.

Commonly asked questions
How can Geotab’s fleet management solutions enhance compliance?
With Geotab’s highly customisable compliance solutions, organisations can reduce their risk of internal and external compliance infringements and reduce the likelihood of incidents or accidents related to untrained drivers using the wrong vehicle, or driver fatigue caused by exceeding working and driving time limits. The hardware and software is modular and customisable to allow different regions or business units to have features enabled or disabled according to local compliance requirements, all while making drivers safer. Utility companies also have the flexibility to create multiple walkaround checks for different vehicle types, depots, regions and safety policies as required.
Rather than offering only one dash camera, we provide the option of several different cameras, offering greater flexibility to cater for different safety and compliance requirements across the fleet.
How can fleet management software reduce the costs of running a fleet?
Fleet management software can be used to identify inefficiencies that are impacting fuel economy and increasing fuel consumption. By tracking fuel consumption and trends, benchmarking fuel efficiency by vehicle class, and monitoring driver behaviour across metrics including excessive speeding, avoidable idling, harsh acceleration, braking and cornering, managers can actively improve the fleet’s fuel efficiency, reducing fuel costs and emissions.
What is the benefit of fleet maintenance software for utility companies?
Having an expensive, specialist vehicle off the road incurs significant costs to operations. With predictive maintenance insights from fleet management software, the engineering team has the data to triage minor issues in the necessary order to maximise fleet health. They can identify minor issues before they escalate into major problems that risk costly breakdowns and impact service delivery.
How can Geotab’s EVSA help utility fleets to electrify?
Geotab's EVSA (Electric Vehicle Suitability Assessment) analyses the current vehicle data of utility fleets to determine which vehicles are best suited for electrification. By considering driving patterns, range requirements, and total cost of ownership, the EVSA provides valuable data-driven insights, including financial and environmental savings, that guide the electrification strategy and optimise the transition process for utility fleets.
How do fleet management solutions improve driver safety?
Geotab’s standard telematics device provides audible safety prompts to drivers, based on the rules that you can define. Fleets can start with one set of rules, and then customise those rules and tighten the safety & sustainability criteria to gain greater improvements in time. AI-powered dual-facing dash cameras target distracted or unsafe driving habits, going beyond speed and accelerator-based safety monitoring. The resulting reduction in fleet risk can be monitored to measure the success of the actions taken.
Anonymous benchmarking of your fleet’s safety performance against others that operate similar routes enables safety teams to identify areas for even greater improvement.
How do utility companies measure the effectiveness of their response time optimization measures?
Response time is a critical performance metric for utility fleets, directly impacting customer satisfaction, service-level agreement compliance and operational efficiency.
Fleet management software enables response times to be optimised by providing real-time visibility into vehicle locations, route progress and job status, while also flagging possible causes of delays. Predictive maintenance insights help to ensure vehicles are kept in optimal health, and route planning software integrations make it easier to assign the nearest, best-equipped technician to each job.
Utility companies can monitor trends over time, benchmark performance across regions or teams and compare results against key performance indicators (KPIs). This data provides a holistic view of fleet effectiveness, helping telecommunications providers to deliver a more reliable and consistent service.
