**New** Smartrak Insights - Fleet Utilisation - Out of Geofence

Out of Geofence

The Out of Geofence Tab in the Utilisation Module is a first addition to the Insights Platform, designed specifically for Fleet Managers to monitor and optimise the efficiency of their fleets. The tab displays the percentage of time vehicles are outside a defined pool geofence (or multiple geofences), along with trends over time. This information can be further broken down by groups and vehicles to provide a detailed understanding of fleet usage patterns. 

Benefits

• Cost benefit: Right size fleet and eliminate waste

Why can I not see the Insights module?

You may need to have the Insights module enabled for your organisation manually.

Why are many (or all) Groups showing as 100% utilisation?

First of all, ensure that the geofences that you want to show utilisation for are enabled for the “Availability” feature. As per these instructions here.

For Groups of assets that have never been inside the Geofences you have selected, then the report will show them as 100% utilisation. For example, if you have an Auckland Geofence and you select a Group of vehicles in Christchurch, then you can expect that that all vehicles in that group are outside of the Auckland geofence 100% of the time. So be sure to chose the Groups that are relevant to the Geofences you would like see utilisation for.
