They had a very manual process for dispatching drivers that consisted of pulling up a customer site on Google Maps, using Google to create the route, printing the route, and then scheduling a driver to the job that would have to come in to take the printed route. <\/span><\/p>\n Managers back at the office had no way to confirm if field <\/span>supervisors were on the job site when they were supposed to be. Managers would have to call supervisors and take their word for it or drive to customer sites to check for themselves. <\/span><\/p>\n The accounting department had no way to verify employee timecards, which they were certain was costing them more than it should. They were seeking a platform that could integrate with their enterprise resource planning (ERP) and payroll software used to manage all data throughout their organization. <\/span><\/p>\n Since implementing GPS Insight to track their 60 vehicles, fleet management has been dramatically simplified for Whitton <\/span>Companies. This is primarily due to the powerful location information and the ability to integrate that information with their backend software.<\/span><\/p>\n Improved Dispatch Efficiency Provided Visibility Over Field Employees Matt Nielson, Director of IT at Whitton Companies, stated, \u201cWe set up landmarks around customer sites and other unauthorized locations. If an employee\u2019s vehicle spends a certain amount of time in a landmark other than the customer site, we are notified by an alert and can identify if they are off task.\u201d<\/p>\n Reduced High Labor Cost While Whitton Companies was aware their operational costs were high, they didn\u2019t realize the true extent of these excessive costs until their accounting team began using GPS tracking data to verify payroll hours. \u201cMost employees use electronic timecards that integrate straight into our payroll system, but some employees bring their vehicles home and don\u2019t punch in and out,\u201d said Nielsen.<\/p>\n Integrating GPS tracking data directly into their payroll software allowed their accounting team to quickly and easily verify the hours <\/span>reported on employee timecards to when they truly started and ended their day. They now use this method to verify every driver\u2019s timesheet and fix any misreported hours with the click of a button.<\/p>\n \u201cI would say that GPS Insight is well worth the investment and to just do it. We have saved thousands and thousands of dollars using GPS Insight. You will receive your investment back in a short period of time,\u201d said Nielson. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Curbs high labor costs with automated GPS Tracking<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":47,"featured_media":58083,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1229,1707],"tags":[1697],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gpsinsight.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58086"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gpsinsight.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gpsinsight.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gpsinsight.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/47"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gpsinsight.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=58086"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.gpsinsight.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58086\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gpsinsight.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/58083"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gpsinsight.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=58086"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gpsinsight.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=58086"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gpsinsight.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=58086"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
