Here&rsquo;s a quick explanation of how some of these charges might impact the overall cost of your vehicle tracking system:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Installation: <\/strong>Installing your systems can be tricky and time consuming, so hiring someone to take on the task might be a better option. This will cost you, though &ndash; usually around &pound;50 per vehicle. If you&rsquo;re keen to take the DIY approach, then our <a href=\"https:\/\/startups.co.uk\/vehicles\/tracking\/vehicle-tracking-installation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">how to install a vehicle tracker<\/a> page will tell you everything you need to know.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Updates: <\/strong>Making sure your system is completely up-to-date can be costly stuff. Check how often your tracker will require updates, and consider the logistics of updating a whole fleet&rsquo;s worth of trackers.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Roaming charges: <\/strong>As GPS tracking systems work via a SIM card, you will be charged for data roaming outside of the normal boundaries, so make sure to check these when choosing a vehicle tracking system.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Damages: <\/strong>If you rent your vehicle tracking device, then any damage caused to the kit will come at an added expense.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Maintenance: <\/strong>Keeping your trackers clean, tidy, and ticking over day-to-day takes time, care, and attention. This doesn&rsquo;t cost much, but it&rsquo;s worth considering when you invest.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<\/p><div class=\"jumplink-anchor-section\">\n <div class=\"jumplink-anchor-pointer\" id=\"link-the-roi-of-vehicle-tracking-how-it-can-save-you-money\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n[vc_column_text show_in_index=&rdquo;true&rdquo; title_index=&rdquo;The ROI of vehicle tracking: how it can save you money&rdquo; title_type=&rdquo;h2&Prime; title=&rdquo;The ROI of vehicle tracking: how it can save your business money&rdquo;]\n<h2>The ROI of vehicle tracking: how it can save your business money<\/h2>\n<p><a name=\"ROI\"><\/a>While investing in vehicle tracking software can cost a significant amount, there&rsquo;s a simple reason that the popularity of these systems continues to soar &ndash; they save businesses money.<\/p>\n<p>Here are the main financial benefits of vehicle tracking systems:<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#128663; Reduced insurance premiums: <\/strong>Installing a vehicle tracking system will give you more information on any potential accidents your vehicles are involved in. Furthermore, using an advanced vehicle tracking system will also help you to manage dangerous driver behaviours like speeding and reckless driving. Both these should help to bring down the cost of your insurance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#128663; Fuel cost savings: <\/strong>Even a relatively simple vehicle tracking system will allow you to track and plan your routes more efficiently, and therefore reduce your fuel costs. More advanced systems will also allow you to train your drivers to drive more economically, helping to further lower your fuel costs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#128663; Less time\/money spent on admin: <\/strong>Get a vehicle tracking system and you can kiss mileage forms goodbye. No more chasing your drivers up to tell you how far they&rsquo;ve travelled, and no more trusting that these figures are accurate. Instead, data on distance travelled will be automatically sent from the vehicle to the office, leaving you with one less thing to worry about.<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#128663; Quicker deliveries: <\/strong>Route planning is key to the appeal of vehicle tracking systems, as they help to ensure that your drivers are travelling efficiently from one location to another, and not idling between stops. This should help speed up your delivery times, and even increase your sales volume by allowing you to make more deliveries per day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#128663; Win new business through improved efficiency: <\/strong>Knowing exactly where your vehicles are at all times should allow you to make quicker deliveries, and provide your customers with more accurate delivery windows. This should significantly improve the overall efficiency and productivity of your business, and help you to win new contracts and keep your clients happy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#128663; Reducing the risk of vehicle theft: <\/strong>With a vehicle tracking system, you&rsquo;ll know exactly where your vehicles are at all times. If one is stolen, the police will be able to use the signal to quickly track down the thief and retrieve your precious vehicle. Moreover, a notice on your vehicles that they have vehicle tracking systems installed may even reduce the risk of them being stolen in the first place.<\/p>\n<p><strong>All this adds up to one simple truth &ndash; businesses are more efficient, more productive, and more profitable when they use vehicle tracking systems.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you like the sound of these benefits, then fill in our

Vice President of Product, Strategy and Marketing, offers the following insight:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Although data is vital to unlock the most efficient way to run your business, it matters how you collect it and how you use it. Data collected from your fleet&rsquo;s vehicles has the power to transform businesses by improving driver safety, fleet performance, and operational efficiency, as well as reduce costs and environmental impact.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;An ideal telematics solution should offer technology that will help your business leverage the power of this data through expert data analysis and comparison.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Driver behaviour can be improved with in-cab coaching, while driver engagement can be boosted through the use of an intuitive mobile app. Depending on your business, you may also benefit from integrated specialist services such as Cold Chain and TACHOfresh.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;If you are running an HGV fleet, complying with tachograph regulations [which ensure that you stay within legal driving time limits through devices that record speed and distance] is vital, and a connected solution combines the benefit of meeting compliance laws with a paperless system that saves time and costs.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Meanwhile, a combined cold chain and telematics system [where telematics is used to ensure that perishable goods are transported at low temperatures] has the potential to reduce costs, streamline efficiency, and protect merchandise from being spoiled or wasted.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;When temperature data is combined with telematics data such as vehicle location, your business is able to leverage this information to make real-time decisions that can boost your ROI.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p><strong>When comparing vehicle tracking systems, Martin Port, the founder and CEO of vehicle tracking provider <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bigchange.com\/\">BigChange<\/a>, advises:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Look for a system that provides full turn-by-turn journey histories, linked to information about the individual driver. The ROI from a vehicle tracking system comes from the powerful analysis, data, and reports generated by the system.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;It allows &ldquo;management by exception&rdquo; by drawing management attention to poor or unsafe driver behaviours, such as speeding, harsh braking, or even excess standing at a location with the engine left on (which wastes fuel).<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The best systems allow an easy comparison of planned vs actual, to compare the times of planned deliveries, collections, or visits with the actual times that they happened.&rdquo;<\/p>\n <\/div>\n

Here are five great tips for staying on top of your vehicle tracking costs, and making sure you&rsquo;re not paying over the odds.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>&#10004;&#65039; Shop around<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>It may sound obvious, but make sure you take a look at the whole market and don&rsquo;t just consider one brand. After all, you need to know what&rsquo;s out there to know you&rsquo;ve got the right deal for you.<\/p>\n<p>The best way to do this is to get quotes that are specifically tailored to the individual needs of your business, as well as the size of your fleet.<\/p>\n<p>That&rsquo;s where we come in &ndash; we can quickly and easily put you in touch with a range of suppliers, who&rsquo;ll be able to provide bespoke quotes for your business.<\/p>\n<p>The best part? It&rsquo;s free! Simply fill in our short online form, and we&rsquo;ll put you in touch with the most suitable vehicle tracking providers for your business &ndash; saving you from scouring the net or trawling through endless product pages in search of that elusive quote.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>&#10004;&#65039; Keep the contract short and sweet<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Choosing to lease, rather than buy your vehicle tracking kit? Make sure you check, double-check, and triple-check the length of your contract before you sign on the dotted line. Two years (24 months) should be the absolute limit, but try to get a shorter contract if you can &ndash; any longer and you might as well have bought the system outright yourself.<\/p>\n<p>A typical vehicle tracking contract will last for between one and three years, so it&rsquo;s vital to read the small print.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, like all contracts, make sure you don&rsquo;t get caught out by an automatic renewal. Check that you&rsquo;re not signing up for something that&rsquo;ll roll your contract on for longer than you want to sign up for.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>&#10004;&#65039; Check how easily you could scale up<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Not all small businesses stay small forever, and there&rsquo;s every chance your fleet could expand in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Bear this in mind when comparing vehicle tracking providers, and take note of the procedures and price points involved in adding more vehicles to your contract. If jumping from a small to medium-sized fleet looks it would cost a significant amount, then you may need to look elsewhere.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>&#10004;&#65039; Be SIM card savvy<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Vehicle tracking systems work by using a SIM card to send a GPS signal that tells you where the vehicle is. However, it&rsquo;s important to know what type of SIM card your tracker is using. A locked SIM will only work on the network it has been assigned to, making it harder to track your vehicle in remote locations.<\/p>\n<p>To counter this, look for a system that uses a multi-network SIM, as this will increase the chances of getting a signal &ndash; no matter where your vehicle ends up.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>&#10004;&#65039; Consider the cost of training<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Having an all-singing, all-dancing vehicle tracking system that tells you everything you need to know about your fleet sounds brilliantly efficient &ndash; but if you can&rsquo;t use it properly, then you&rsquo;re just throwing money down the drain.<\/p>\n<p>Most systems come with some form of training (either virtual or in the form of a handbook), so make sure you&rsquo;re familiar with your team&rsquo;s needs and capabilities &ndash; and have considered the cost and potential duration of training &ndash; before you invest in the most technologically advanced trackers you can find.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<\/p><div class=\"jumplink-anchor-section\">\n <div class=\"jumplink-anchor-pointer\" id=\"link-buying-vs-renting-a-vehicle-tracking-system\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n[vc_column_text]\n<h2>Buying vs renting a vehicle tracking system for your business<\/h2>\n<p>Choosing between buying and renting a vehicle tracking system is an important decision, but one with no set right answer.

The one that is of particular interest to us is the one that helps us minimise route overlap.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;This means we can be more effective in terms of our delivery times, whilst also significantly cutting down on the miles we do, and therefore the fuel we use.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;On top of this, being more proactive in monitoring driver habits and cutting down our fuel usage feeds neatly into our environmental strategy, which &ndash; amongst many other things &ndash; aims to cut our fuel use by five percent in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Suppliers tend to be very persistent when chasing their order, so it&rsquo;s good to be able to manage their expectations with more detailed tracking and estimated delivery dates and times.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Accurate systems also allow our drivers to call customers 30 minutes before they are due to arrive, which has helped improve customer service levels.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;This is something frequent online shoppers have come to expect, yet we are very much in the minority when it comes to manufacturers thinking about their end-to-end customer journey.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Here at Origin, the move from a manual process to an automated system not only means that the scheduling for customer jobs has become more accurate &ndash; improving our delivery service &ndash; but that installation scheduling is done with more certainty.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The Maxoptra software we use also synchronises with accounts, meaning as soon as payment has cleared, the delivery can be issued &ndash; very smart and very fast.&rdquo;<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<div class=\"jumplink-anchor-section\">\n <div class=\"jumplink-anchor-pointer\" id=\"link-comparing-vehicle-tracking-software-prices\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n[vc_column_text show_in_index=&rdquo;true&rdquo; title_index=&rdquo;Comparing vehicle tracking software prices&rdquo;]\n<h2>Comparing vehicle tracking software prices<\/h2>\n<p>We&rsquo;re coming to the end of our in-depth guide to vehicle tracking costs.
