Trimble fleet management technology selected by Ziegler 25 May 2011

Ziegler Group has selected the Trimble CarCube fleet management system for its fleet of 2,000 heavy goods vehicles that operate across Europe.

Daniel Verschelde, European information systems director at Ziegler, explains that the system is designed to improve efficiency and communication between fleet operators and drivers.

"As a freight forwarder operating in European markets, we needed an advanced international fleet management solution and service. CarCube meets all of our requirements," he says.

"It is very easy to use, which is essential to help ensure acceptance of the tool by our drivers. The solution is also adaptable. For example, during the field trial we selected the option of installing an on-board scanner to allow CMRs to be transmitted immediately, if drivers faced any issues with deliveries," he continues.

CarCube covers: driver identification; navigation; task planning and status reporting; trailer identification and verification; journey time assistance to comply with EU regulations for drivers; and integrated Convention on the Contract for the International Carriage of Goods by Road (CMRs) scanning.
