FAQ Answer

Question

What should a fleet manager do if their fleet still has a high incident rate after implementing active tracking?

Answer
The manager fleet-consider-switching-from-battery-powered-to-hardwired-gps-trackers-a197fd" class="faq-link faq-link-internal auto-internal-link">should: tune the polling interval to match route density, reconfigure server-side processing to under 10 seconds, redesign the alert workflow to bypass the main server during high-traffic events, and replace any GPS controller with firmware older than 2024. If signal latency exceeds 60 seconds across more than 5% of trips, only a hardware replacement with a current-generation GPS controller will resolve the gap.
