Preventive maintenance service company uses alerts functionality to accurately track technicians’ time on the job

NexTraq, the value leader of GPS fleet tracking and vehicle management solutions, announced today that its client, Critical Power Solutions was able to recover 15 percent of its revenue utilizing the NexTraq™ Fleet Tracking platform’s alert functionality. Additionally, by implementing NexTraq’s Fleet Dispatch application, Critical Power Solutions was able to improve driver safety.

Jason Madler, Owner of Critical Power Solutions, said, “The NexTraq solution was affordable and had all the functionality I was looking for while being extremely user-friendly.” One of the biggest benefits of the NexTraq Fleet Tracking solution was the ability to bill clients down to the minute.

Madler said, “Before implementing the NexTraq solution, I estimated that we were losing 15 percent of revenue due to inaccurate billing.”

Madler created arrival and departure alerts for 200 job sites. He could then review the data in the system and actually report to his client the exact time spent on the job. Madler adds, “It is also helpful with job validation as we could prove technicians where at a site when they were supposed to be.”

He also used the Detailed Activity Report to accurately bill his client mileage expenses. Besides increasing revenue, Madler implemented the NexTraq Fleet Dispatch application along with in-vehicle Garmin® devices to improve technician safety when driving to remote areas.

Mike Scarbrough, CEO of NexTraq, said, “One of the most important aspects of fleet tracking technology is giving our customers the ability to keep their drivers safe. By being able to pinpoint their location with our Fleet Dispatch application, they can quickly re-route them or provide voice-guided, turn-by-turn directions.”
