Fleet management allows a company’s forklift truck fleet to be controlled centrally. This mainly involves optimizing’s the availability of the individual forklift trucks and coordinating the distances that are travelled. Modern forklift trucks continuously collect data for this purpose, which provides information about your status and current capacity utilization. Fleet management helps to make optimum use of resources and detect problems such as capacity bottlenecks at an early stage.

Fleet managers have the task of planning forklift truck deployment in advance, optimizing’s processes and reducing the operating costs of the forklift truck fleet. The requirements for fleet management differ from company to company, as they are very much dependent on the size of the fleet. Modern fleet management software ensures that you can get the most out of any fleet size. It benefits the experienced fleet manager just as much as the casual user who only requires individual functions.
