According to the National Truck Equipment Association, most vocational fleet operators know that a good preventive maintenance program can minimize vehicle repair costs and downtime. What most operators may not know is how to determine if their fleet's preventive maintenance program is optimized.
BorgSolutions’ ASTRAL was designed to enable both fleet operators and C-Level executives access to critical fleet maintenance and repair data delivered in a variety of reports, which in turn enable them to accurately determine if their operations are optimized. In addition, since Astral’s reports and actionable items (work orders, purchase orders, maintenance alerts and more) are based on real time data, decisions are no longer based on post event information. Enabling fleet operators to make critical calls on well-founded information that has been delivered in a decision friendly format.
To make this a truly effective solution for the Services’ Industry, Astral has incorporated features commonly found in accounting and dispatching solutions to its’ maintenance offering, such as: Fuel Management, Labor Management, and State and Federal regulatory compliance.
True efficiency is achieved when raw data about each vehicle, such as: odometer readings, age of units, maintenance schedules and other key factors, is “digested” within Astral and automatically pre-populates action items in the form of work orders, purchase orders and alerts. Leaving fleet operators with a fully automated action items that enable them to spend more time making tactical decisions instead of administering endless fleet data.
State and Federal regulatory compliance is a cumbersome task that every fleet operator must deal with at some point in time. Endless reports are always requested and their administration is a job on its own. Astral has automated State and Federal regulatory compliance to assist fleet operators with a variety of requirements, including: certifications, registration renewals, mileage reporting, inspections, DOT, border crossing (IFTA),….
By reducing a fleet operators administrative time and increasing productivity, Astral reduces the overall cost of fleet operations. Automate and Streamline the management of work orders, labor allocation, inventory levels, quote requests, and purchase order processing allows for a more profitable fleet operation. Vehicle performance can be better assessed within Astral to better plan future disposition and replacement. Astral even provides insight into operator/driver data for identification of vehicular abuse and rogue driver trends.
