Recouping Your Investment in Fleet Management Systems

By: Matt Reinhart
•
Case Studies

Members of the Fleet Cost & Care team have countless conversations with fleet owners about their concerns over the return on investment (ROI) from fleet management systems.

A study released on September 25th, 2017 surveyed 592 U.S. fleet operators about their operations regarding fleet management systems, ELDs, GPS systems and more.

According to the study, 66% of respondents said that they have already recouped their initial investment in a fleet management system. The remaining respondents explained that they hadn’t been using their systems long enough to achieve positive ROI. See the full statement below:

“When it comes to recouping their initial investment in the fleet management systems, about two-thirds, or 66%, of the respondents said they have, and about a quarter said they had not. According to Driscoll, those who said no reported they hadn’t been using the system long enough.”

We understand that the price-tag associated with implementing a fleet management system can be intimidating. However, there are countless ways that these systems pay you back.

1. Significant reductions in insurance costs and liability.

  • Fleet owners who have the preferred contract language embedded in electronic work tickets receive a 50% reduction on their general liability deductible.

2. Increased employee efficiency reduces operating costs and expenses.

  • On average, fleet management systems help to reduce the amount of time tasks take your employees by about 10% throughout every department in your operations – sales, dispatch, service and clerical. This 10% reduction translates to a savings of around $600,000 in employee labor each year for an average sized crane company.

3. Enhanced reporting provides visibility into areas for improvement.

  • Down renting summary reports help identify equipment that should be rented out at a higher rate or more often. One company increased revenue from one unit by $69,000 over a one-year period.
  • Usage reports identify the overall ROI you’ve achieved for every piece of equipment you own. Use this information to make informed purchasing / selling decisions that save you money and increase revenue.

The above are just a few of many ways that fleet owners recoup their investment in fleet management systems and increase revenue.
