According to the website by Kinesis, “The most efficient solution for vehicle tracking, asset and driver management, saving your business time and money.”, a fleet management system has been developed by Kinesis to help companies streamline labor-intensive processes, providing unprecedented visibility and monitoring of assets and personnel in real-time. This fleet management system, known as Kinesis fleet, combines the use of telematics data, GPS technology and onboard diagnostic to monitor and optimize the management of both fleet and manpower.

Through this system, drivers are preempt to avoid routes with heavy traffic and are provided with alternate routes to their destinations, resulting to the increase in productivity and reduce fuel consumption by the overall fleet. In addition, Kinesis Geofence enabled the user to set up a perimeter around the strategic location. It is useful to monitor movements both in and out of an area. Kinesis has a personalized smartphone application which provides performance reports and recognizes opportunities in the business for greater efficiency.

For these reasons, while there are many similar products in the market, Kinesis Fleet is a useful product that can stand out from its competitors as it provides many unique functions.

It observe driving habits and giving feedback to drivers to boost their style of driving. By refining driving techniques, it help to raise the safety of employee, as well as people on the road. In our own opinion, implementing a Kinesis fleet solution can enhance not only operational efficiency but also remotely optimize operations, it also greatly improve safety and streamline processes.

In contrast to Mobil Information Systems, a company which provides similar solutions to Kinesis Fleet, Kinesis Fleet includes a variety of user-centric features such as the fuel card integration and fuel fraud alert.
