With fluctuating fuel prices, companies cannot afford the expense of mobile field workers getting lost, putting a strain on productivity and resources.
ProScan Mobility, leaders in total mobile solutions, has partnered with Electric Compass, leaders in GPS navigation, to bring advanced tracking navigation and other GPS capabilities to the southern African market.
Industry forecasts project that by the end of this year there will be one billion mobile workers globally. Companies need to keep abreast with the latest GPS technology and the benefits that it can have on daily operations and performance.
With Electric Compass' Enterprise Navigator, field workers can improve their on-time performance by reducing fleet mileage with GPS Turn-By-Turn Navigation, which extracts information from back-end systems into the field workers' GPS, eliminating manual input. It further assists the driver by using the GPS to determine the vehicle position and calculate estimated time of arrival.
The Electric Compass navigation solution can be integrated with other mobile applications and is adaptable with third-party field mobility solutions. The Enterprise Navigator also imports point of interest (POIs) landmarks and offers support for over 25 languages and extensive coverage for southern Africa and other country maps.
“ProScan is proud to announce our affiliation with Electric Compass and the introduction of their GPS navigation and tracking products to the southern African market. We believe this GPS technology, which runs off mobile enterprise computers, will allow mobile workers to reach their customers without delay and ensure maximised return on investment.”
