WEXSMART™ benefits

The benefits of WEXSMART

The WEXSMART vehicle management system helps you better manage your vehicles to reduce operating costs and save money. With 24/7 vehicle location monitoring and diagnostics, WEXSMART helps you:

• Reduce vehicle fuel consumption (customers average an 11%–15% savings in annual fuel costs)
• Increase driver productivity (customers average a 26% gain)
• Eliminate unauthorized vehicle use, unsafe vehicle operation, and illegal driver activity
• Prevent vehicle theft
• Keep your vehicles in top operating condition

WEXSMART not only saves you time and money, but also helps you easily assess and monitor risks to your business. With Internet access you can monitor vehicle and employee activity from wherever you may be. Keep track of operations from your office, when you’re at home, or from your cell phone or handheld PDA.

Reduce fuel usage and illegal driver activity

Through WEXSMART online reports, you can view fuel consumption, MPG, and idling time per vehicle. You will also receive alerts concerning drivers with excessive speed violations and idle time. These powerful reporting tools can help you inform employees of poor driving habits and unnecessary fuel consumption—helping your entire fleet improve fuel economy.

Increase driver productivity

Employees won’t inflate the work time they record on their time sheets or invoices if they know you can track how long they’ve been at a job or location. However you measure productivity—jobs per day, deliveries per vehicle, etc.—WEXSMART can help. By ensuring that actual work hours are being recorded and that employees are making the most of their work time, you can increase productivity and earn more money for your business.

Eliminate unauthorized vehicle use

When your employees know that you or another manager can access vehicle location information along with how long the vehicle has been stopped and when it starts moving again, that’s enough to deter unauthorized vehicle use. WEXSMART will help you put an end to off-route driving, including driving outside your preset geofence boundaries, driving home for lunch, running errands, taking extended breaks on company time, performing side-jobs, or using vehicles outside of business hours.

Prevent vehicle theft

Because WEXSMART alerts you to unusual driver activity such as when a vehicle leaves your predetermined geofence or violates speed limits, you’ll be aware of these possible theft indicators in near real time. In the event that one of your vehicles is stolen, WEXSMART will continue to send you location updates every two minutes so you can track where the vehicle is headed.

For most WEXSMART installations, you receive coverage for nationwide stolen vehicle recovery and roadside assistance at no extra cost. Ask a sales representative for details.

Keep your vehicles in top operating condition

By tapping into a vehicle’s computer diagnostics system, WEXSMART has the insight to help you prevent vehicle downtime. With real-time email alerts, you’ll know immediately when there’s a problem with one of your vehicles, precisely what the problem is, and when it’s time for scheduled maintenance. You can also receive email notices of vehicle recalls. Keep your vehicles on the road by making sure the right repairs are performed at the right time.

Manage risk to your business

WEXSMART can help you to easily assess, mitigate, and monitor risk to your business in so many ways. WEXSMART keeps you well informed of every aspect of how your vehicle is used. You can decrease vehicle mileage and idle time to reduce your fuel expenses and ensure that your vehicles are better maintained.

With insight from a vehicle’s computer diagnostics system, WEXSMART also helps you to manage vehicle maintenance and address immediate problems to ensure that your vehicles are in top condition. Monitoring your drivers’ speeding habits helps you mitigate risk to your drivers, reduce accidents, and ensure that your vehicles are not abused. Since many insurance carriers recognize the value of WEXSMART, you may be able to apply for insurance premium reductions. Contact your insurance carrier to determine if an anti-theft tracking device discount is available in your area.

Manage your business with WEXSMART reports

The remarkable vehicle management capabilities of WEXSMART are made possible not only through the GPS tracking technology but also through the various reports available to you online. These customizable reports analyze vehicle and driver activity data and present this information in easy-to-read, color-coded tables. You can schedule reports to be emailed daily, weekly, or monthly. WEXSMART reports allow you to isolate potential trouble areas, so you can maximize driver productivity and operational efficiencies.
