Abbey Logistics Group opts for Microlise’s telematics solution

Microlise Fleet Performance will provide Abbey Logistics with real-time visibility of its fleet and help it to improve driver performance and safety; while reducing fuel costs and environmental impact. It will replace three different tracking systems currently being used in the business as a result of contract wins and an acquisition.

Driver performance metrics, including A-G grades on a range of criteria, will be available via the Microlise Driver Performance Management (DPM) app. DPM is designed to give drivers easy access to insights about their performance, increasing their engagement with telematics and giving them the feedback they need to improve their driving. At the same time, the app is designed to reduce the amount of managers’ time consumed by telematics and driver improvement programmes.

The DPM app, which runs on both Android and iOS devices, also gives drivers a view of their performance compared to others in their team, providing the option to motivate drivers through league tables and incentives. Abbey Logistics’ management will be able to identify poor performance and manage by exception, delivering targeted driver debriefs and training.
