MAJOR PROJECTS
Data insights to achieve change The amount of data available to construction companies to monitor and improve standards is now greater than ever but collecting , analysing , and reporting on it needn ’ t be an arduous task . Telematics systems , for example , are ever more sophisticated , creating individual profiles for drivers based on their performance in a number of key efficiency areas .
Management can drill down into specific areas of performance to gain greater insight into specific problems . Data is available on a range of behaviours , including speeding , fuel consumption , harsh
steering and braking , idling , gear changes , and constant speed .
The latest telematics tools can also maintain the theme of two-way feedback and collaboration by empowering drivers to adjust their driving style in real time . The driver will receive an alert through their sat nav device to inform them where they are able to improve . Devices can even provide predictive advice that unlocks even greater fuel and carbon emissions savings . Drivers are told when to take their foot off the accelerator on the approach to roundabouts or junctions , allowing them to drive in a smoother , more fuel-efficient manner .
