Why Improving Driver Communication is Important

Time is Money! There’s one goal in mind when it comes to a driver with a broken-down trailer—a fast, efficient, well-communicated, and properly done repair. Time is money; the time a trailer spends getting repaired equals money going down the drain, whether it is due to paying for downtime or entirely missed loads. Lack of visibility and miscommunication can easily lead to poorly managed breakdown events. Streamlined processes in addition to tools that enable efficient communication and visibility can make a huge impact in minimizing downtime. Keep reading to learn more about how we are driving improved driver communications anytime, anywhere.

Customer Portal

The Fleet Dashboard section of our Customer Portal is designed to be a one-stop shop for you to request service, view breakdown events and work orders, track repair status, and get the most up-to-date information about your fleet. By having a Customer Portal account, you’ll have the ability to take control of all maintenance needs completely online. With our Portal, you gain the ability to view the location of GPS-equipped trailers, access maintenance records, as well as download FHWAs, PMs, and registrations at your fingertips. This truly gives fleet managers, customers, and drivers the capability to track every aspect of any repair without jumping through hoops to get assistance quickly. This avoids any possible miscommunication issues because there is complete visibility and transparency when using our Customer Portal.
