Telematics Tracking
International freight business Ewing Brothers is reporting savings of £300 per vehicle per month, following its installation of the Fleet Manager solution from MiX Telematics.

The Dungannon, Northern Ireland-based operator says its annual fuel bill has reduced by 5% -- comfortably beating its original target of 4.3%.

“We are really pleased with the performance of the MiX Telematics solution,” says Steven Ewing, managing director at Ewing Brothers. “It’s an invaluable tool that helps us to run our business with professionalism and has provided us with great financial savings. “

The company also uses Fleet Manager for live fleet tracking. “It’s a great time-saving tool, which allows us to monitor the location of our vehicles and communicate arrival times to our clients.

“Even when we are not in the office we can view the system via the mobile phone application, giving us complete control,” adds Ewing.

In addition to monitoring fuel use, Ewing Brothers specified the optional RIBAS in-cab driving aid, to give drivers real-time feedback on their driving style.
