With an awarded contract from Sourcewell, Forward Thinking Systems provides dependable fleet management and tracking solutions for government, nonprofit, and education organizations.
Our partnership and contract with Sourcewell allows member agencies to get our fleet management technologies and related software solutions without having to go through the traditional time-consuming and costly request for proposal process.
Our system’s scalability serves fleets from a few vehicles to a few thousand vehicles and offers progressive features and solutions beneficial specifically to government organizations and other public sectors.
Track the locations of your fleet vehicles and equipment
GPS tracking devices for government show you the real-time locations of everything in your fleet, including vehicles, trailers, heavy machinery, and ancillary equipment. Capture your vehicles’ true movements, driver behaviors, and significant events with GPS tracker updates every 1 minute, 1 mile, and 30-degree turn of the steering wheel. The Field Warrior® app for your mobile workforce even equips real-time GPS fleet tracking software onto your drivers' existing phones, tablets, or Garmin devices.
Maximize safety by monitoring and improving behaviors
Easily review driver behavior events with Fleetcam® to improve the driver performance, safety, and efficiency of your government fleet. Vehicle dash cams use data collected in the field to determine what’s happening on the road and easily see which drivers are doing well and which ones need more coaching. AI and sensors provide real-time in-cab alerts to warn drivers of unsafe behaviors like talking on the phone or driving too close to the car in front of them.
Customizable map layering and tracking for diverse fleets
Advanced map layering options through Intellihub® allows organizations to tailor vehicle and equipment icons, add GIS layers, and customize data for different fleets. With GIS mapping layers, view important field related information that pertain to your organization. For government entities like public works and utilities, you can add electric box and telephone poll locations. With easy access to this information, you can monitor equipment for maintenance needs and quickly dispatch crews for repair work.
Stay in the loop about your fleet vehicles’ health with preventive maintenance alerts and remote diagnostics codes
Our government tracking system allows you to set up preventative maintenance schedules and receive alerts according to engine hours, specific dates or mileage points. Receive diagnostic trouble codes, reduce unexpected and costly breakdowns, manage ELD and DVIRS, and extend the overall life of your fleet assets. Based on jurisdiction, federal, state, and local government fleets have individual environmental regulations they must meet as well. You can substitute the required Smog Check inspections by remotely monitoring emissions, driver behaviors, engine idle times, and more with Forward Thinking Systems’ solutions. For government fleets in California or Nevada, FTS is one of the only companies that enables fleet vehicles to automate their annual smog checks with an On-Board Diagnostics (OBD-II) port.
Rely on our secure solutions to fit into current operations without impacting other systems
Government fleets need solutions they can count on to be secure while easily integrating with other systems. Increased security is available through customizable permission settings and hierarchy infrastructure groups. Secure APIs and FTPs, single sign-on (SSO) capabilities, and two-factor authentication provides fleets with a safe and reliable system that keeps operations running smoothly. Plus, our fleet management systems can take advantage of redundant cellular networks or specialized cellular networks intended for government and first responders such as FirstNet.
Fuel Efficiency
Peace of mind for meeting regulations and improving fuel efficiency
Government fleets can take advantage of fleet tracking and management technology for reducing overhead costs. Our solutions help managers reduce fuel costs and waste by monitoring speeding and extended idling times. With the integration of different fuel cards into the same system, fleet managers are also able to organize fuel purchase logs and reduce the amount of office work needed to handle expense reports.
Our fleet tracking features give you greater insight into your workers, vehicles, and general operation. Ultimately helping you run a more efficient and profitable business.
