A fleet manager is responsible for the day-to-day operation and management of a fleet of motor vehicles. Their duties vary depending on a company’s niche, often including supervising mechanics, managing drivers, constructing routes, and keeping up-to-date with federal and state regulatory requirements. One of the main responsibilities of a fleet manager is to keep operational costs down while maintaining strict standards for safety.

These responsibilities are managed by the fleet manager using a range of tools and technologies. Fleet-management solutions granted by TruckX incorporate a set of tools to allow the fleet manager greater control over the operations of their fleet. These include real-time vehicle tracking; planning of optimal routes; analysis of personal data of drivers; safe driving behavior; automated fleets and driver compliance reporting for Hours of Service (HOS), compliance with automated driving systems, and emergency vehicle pre-emption, among others.

With its predictive maintenance capabilities and driver performance monitoring, TruckX also helps to manage risks such as a vehicle breaking down or getting into an accident. Fleet managers can then minimize the downtime of their vehicles and ensure that their fleet is performing at its best.
