Fastline Group reaps swift rewards with RouteMaster telematics07 January 2016

Commercial vehicle and automotive trade spares business Fastline Group says it saw an immediate improvement to fleet efficiency when it installed AGM Telematics’ RouteMaster system last year, and is predicting “a fast return on investment”.

The Kettering-based business, which offers a spares and repair service, has already seen significant fuel savings across the delivery fleet.

Managing director Eugene Finan says the firm wanted an “efficient fleet control system which could enable us to keep track of each consignment and pinpoint the nearest vehicle to a delivery or service requirement at the touch of a button”.

After installing RouteMaster, he adds, the benefit was immediate: “Right away we were able to make more efficient use of the delivery vehicles and this cut down on wasted miles. Needless to say, the impact on fuel costs was significant and we have also saved a great deal of time.”

The system also allows driver performance to be monitored to reduce over-revving, harsh braking and unnecessary engine idling.

“We need to be sure of prompt and cost-effective deliveries and in that regard our RouteMaster vehicle tracking comes into its own – easy to use and a fast return on investment,” says Finan.
