Time
Management & GPS
For
any business owner, time management can be the key to success.
Being able to set deadlines and goals for employees is a
practice going back thousands of years. Now with the turn of
this latest century, GPS technology coupled with computer driven
management software is the next new wave in tracking time for
businesses that employ the use of fleets of vehicles to service
metropolitan and national areas.
Consider
what GPS technology could do for you.
Here's
one scenario: Once your employee leaves your yard with your
vehicle, it is up to him or her to report their time on the job
to you when they return. A business owner can save about $2,000
per year on wages by saving only 15 minutes a day in time not
spent on the job. By printing the GPS software report and
attaching it to a time card, employees are no longer able to
"fudge" a little extra time into a job.
Time management is about keeping track of your billable hours.
Having a GPS system with GPS software can easily relieve your
weekly payrolls of inflated overtime hours, but it also
increases your ability to bill your customers correctly. If a
customer calls and complains about their bill, claiming your
technician was only on site for one hour instead of two, a quick
check of the GPS software logs can verify the time your tech
spent on site. The reports can be printed and faxed to the
customer to prove your technician was there and on time, or take
a screenshot and send it to your customer in their email.
