Sprint Transport opts for innovative follow-up of its transport fleet
Innovative transport management
When it comes to innovative transport management Sprint Transport resolutely chooses the technology of GeoTracer. The transport company from Houthalen-Helchteren puts great stock in innovation and modernisation, and this dovetails perfectly with our vision.
About Sprint Transport
Sprint Transport handles the distribution of a wide variety of goods. You can always count on them, even when time is of the essence: “Sprint to the rescue!”.
In 2008 Alexandra Limage took over the transport company that recruited her as a driver in 1999. For this admirable but far from run-of-the-mill track record she won the accolade of ‘Female Entrepreneur of the Year’ in 2018. In addition, Sprint Transport was one of the Trends Gazelles in 2020 and Alexandra was appointed as a board member of the professional federation Transport and Logistics Flanders.
The vehicles of this haulier were already equipped with a tracking solution but Alexandra felt it was no longer evolving with the times. In 2018 she resolutely opted for innovation and that is how she discovered GeoTracer, who installed cutting-edge tracking solutions in Sprint Transport’s 35 vehicles in no time.
Challenge: solution must do more than simply track routes
When Alexandra first contacted GeoTracer, she made it clear she was looking for a total solution with a special focus on safe driving. A number of functionalities of the GeoSpotter are indispensable to her philosophy:
- Real-time follow-up of congestions
This way our customers can rest assured that standstills are kept to a minimum by intervening in the event of congestions.
- Contact with drivers
The system is equipped with an alarm so drivers can be reached at any time. Some drivers like a bit of loud music on occasion, making it hard for them to hear their phone. This is also a genuine added value in terms of road safety. - Transparency as employee protection
As an employer you have a good overview of what your drivers are doing at any given time. In case of disputes with customers, data can be retrieved from the system. This way the drivers are always protected. And the icing on the cake is that the customers of Sprint Transport can also track their shipment. How practical is that? - Automatic reports
A range of reports is available: fuel consumption, distance covered, temperature settings... For Alexandra’s company this is an added bonus: in the medical sector - one of their top customers today - accurate figures are essential. Also, the temperature in the vehicle needs to remain constant so everything can be transported under safe circumstances.
