Paynes Turf rolls out real-time fleet control with Verilocation09 October 2015

Turf and topsoil supplier Paynes Turf has implemented Verilocation’s real-time GPS tracking system across its seven-strong delivery fleet to ensure new turfs can be delivered in prime condition and laid without delay.

The Essex-based firm can now monitor travelling time between jobs and can tap into a web-based telematics platform to see individual driver and vehicle performance using Verilocation’s on-board CANbus technology.

“Turf must be treated properly to get the best long term results,” says John Payne, partner in the family-owned firm.

“This system helps us to stay ahead of the traffic and keep clients in the loop to ensure prompt deliveries and fast installation. Also, it has the bonus of providing a suite of vehicle and driver performance information so we can fine-tune where necessary. It keeps customers happy and enables us to run an efficient operation.”

The company is also a member of FORS and, adds Payne, “the telematics system from Verilocation enables us to maintain the high standards which the scheme demands”.
