SAVING TIME BY USING READY-TO-USE GPS TRACKERS

INTRO

Time is not infinite and is one of the most precious resources in any business, in any country. Poor time management can damage a company's reputation, projects, revenue streams, and set it back against its competitors. Fortunately, some tedious and manual time-consuming routines can be automated, and it's becoming not just an attractive option, but a necessity. That is why we are pleased to tell you more about Teltonika's ready-to-use GPS trackers.

CHALLENGE

Did you know, for business processes, 60% of activities could save 30% of their time with automation, according to McKinsey Digital report? As we all know, we can never regain the wasted time. This begs a question - can we automate to some extent a vehicle tracker set-up routine to noticeably improve staff productivity, save precious time and company resources? Especially, for large scale projects with strict deadlines and potential compensations claims.

Why it matters? For the sake of example, let’s go through one routine procedure – inserting a SIM card to the FMM130 GPS device. To do so, an employee has to unpack a tracker manually, open the casing, insert a card into a dedicated tray the correct way, and close the casing. We realistically assume it takes about 1 min. Then, to process 1,000 devices and complete the task, it will take 1,000 minutes or 16.6 hours or 2 working days for one person. It is just one of the device set-up steps, and there are others too - connecting batteries, cables, vehicle tracker firmware configuration settings using Teltonika configurator, company branding stickers, etc.

Altogether, a team of technicians and engineers can spend days or even weeks getting GPS trackers ready for large-scale projects. Most of these procedures are tedious, even boring, and can result in setup and installation errors, tracker failures - wasted precious time, company resources, missed project deadlines, complaints, refunds, and damaged company reputation, to say the least. Worse still, scientists have found that monotonous work can have a negative impact on an individual's mental health, causing stress and ultimately leading to burnout.

Hence, is there any way to overcome these obstacles and rip the benefits of the automation process? Yes, it is, and that is where Teltonika Telematics wide range of products preparation services come in very handy.

SOLUTION

We call it ready-to-use GPS tracker services. These are 'done for you' ones made by our automated robotic assembly lines and members of staff to a certain degree.

The list of these extra services is designed to save our clients and business partners time, avoid tedious procedures, eliminate human errors as much as possible and, ultimately, make large-scale projects run smoothly and most cost-effective. When ordered, ready-to-use trackers may include customer-requested firmware and settings configuration in advance, SIM cards, batteries, various cable and connectors handling options, branding choices for devices and packing boxes, and quantity in packaging selections, etc.

For instance, coming back to the case with SIM cards. Companies can order vehicle trackers with their supplied cards inserted to device, Teltonika Telematics prepaid SIM card inserted to the device, or even shipped with pre-soldered eSIM cards. Choose whatever way suits your business the best.

Another example - connecting a battery to a GPS device printed circuit board (or PCB) by us potentially saving thousands of hours to our clients. This way, there are no errors, no waste of time, no stress. The tedious and boring routine is done for you. Please note, this option has some limitations related to the terms and conditions of shipping and freight delivery service providers.

One more significant factor to consider is company branding. As we are all aware, it helps build trust, reputation, improve advertising, create loyal customers and so forth. To assist our clients with that, we are happy to offer several options to choose from: a sticker with the client company logo (on a tracker, box or both), a sticker with client company logo and QR code, laser engraving on a tracker with client company logo or no branding at all (neither device nor packing box).

How it works - to get the benefits of ready-to-use vehicle trackers, please contact your Account Manager to discuss the details. Teltonika members of staff will offer you extra service options available for the particular GPS tracker model, your order, or project.
