Fleet management system satisfies Tayto Group 30 July 2013

Crisps and snack manufacturer Tayto Group has partnered with TomTom, adopting its fleet management technology to manage road risk and boost its duty of care to drivers.

The operator has introduced a combined tracking, performance monitoring and fuel management system across its 117-strong vehicle fleet.

Peter Rush, Tayto Group's purchasing manager, says the result has been improved visibility and insights into its mobile teams of sales, management and distribution people and mobile assets.

The system enables information on how vehicles are being driven – from speeding and idling to harsh braking and steering – to be collated via TomTom's Webfleet software. It also provides live information on the location of the entire fleet.

The TomTom system has also now been integrated with Tayto's Agnew fleet manager software, from Agnew Corporate, to simplify online fleet maintenance, administration and tax compliance for its leased vehicles.

"By giving us the tools to monitor and improve driving performance, the TomTom solution offers us enormous potential to improve the safety of our mobile workforce, while at the same time reducing our fuel consumption," says Rush.

"Having instant access to a wealth of real-time data and management reporting information will prove extremely valuable and further strengthens the commitment we have to our safety and environmental programmes," he adds.
