GPS Insight announced the release of the new GPS Insight Hours of Service solution enabling organizations with a paperless Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) compliant system.
GPS Insight’s Hours of Service (HOS) solution leverages the field-proven strength of Innovative Software Engineering’s (ISE) eFleetSuite application and the ELD-2000, a brand new GPS Insight-powered Android tablet, to deliver GPS fleet tracking, real-time electronic driver logs, Driver Vehicle Inspection Reports (DVIR), and navigation for FMCSA compliance and superior fleet intelligence.
The secure, end-to-end solution features customizable pre and post trip DVIR to eliminate paperwork, reduces manual input errors, and ensures vehicles are repaired in a timely manner. Electronic Driver Logs automatically capture driver log information and comprehensive back-office reporting allows fleet personnel to make proactive decisions to avoid hours of service violations. It also provides navigation capabilities that improve routing efficiency. Automated electronic data collection offers a number of benefits to both drivers and fleet management departments.
Driver Benefits
Prevent use of fatigued drivers
Less stressful, streamlined roadside inspections
Reduction in paperwork
Fleet Management Benefits
Real-Time data improves logistics and dispatch
Prevent citations from paperwork errors
Insurance discounts
“Our teams closely collaborated to integrate our eFleetSuite application empowering GPS Insight customers with the necessary tools to improve driver safety and ensure compliance with FMCSA regulations,” said ISE President Hass Machlab.
“The enhanced solution will allow GPS Insight to leverage our expertise in GPS tracking while also providing an in-cab Android tablet that will feature robust DVIR, HOS, and truck routing applications,” says Elliot Batcheller, VP Operations at GPS Insight.
GPS Insight’s HOS solution complies with the current FMCSA 395.15 requirements and will be updated to comply with Electronic Logging Device (ELD) mandate requirements when they are announced.
