Fleet Management in Latin America: community4you includes specific functions in its software comm.fleet

Online, July 5, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Fleet Management Software is of high importance for companies with large vehicle fleets. It has to cater for the different requirements emerging when administrating corporate fleets. Generally, it has to include functions like master data management, cost administration and contract management.

In Latin America, especially the market for commercial vehicles is growing and there is evidence that this development will continue. Moreover, most of the transport is carried out on the roads, in Brazil this amounts up to 60% of the total transport volume. However, there are special conditions given by the infrastructure and situational variables which pose challenges to transporting goods within and across the Latin American countries.

Bad roads lead to an immense wear and tear of trucks and other vehicles and therefore to a massive increase in maintenance and administrating costs. It is essential to keep track of damages and ongoing repairs as well as to map and evaluate the technical performance of vehicles.

Thus, community4you decided to equip its fleet management system comm.fleet with specific functions to deal with these particularities. The software includes a damage and risk management component to capture damage-relevant information centrally and to document progress and status tracking as well as a maintenance management to keep record and evaluate repairs. A technical CV of each vehicle provides information about the repair and maintenance history of the vehicle. Have a look at http://www.community4you.de/en

Consequently, the Fleet Management System comm.fleet is well-equipped for the requirements of the Latin American market.
