Cryogenic services provider Midland Cryogenics has implemented a telematics system from Masternaut to improve efficiency, compliance and driver behaviour.

The technology is being used across the company's fleet of vans to help ensure timekeeping is correct, jobs are scheduled more efficiently and its drivers remain compliant.

Donna Burgess-Jowsey, general manager of Midland Cryogenics, said: “Our fleet isn’t the biggest, but the nature of our work means we need to keep our drivers safe, while equally keeping processes efficient and compliant.

"Telematics has been a huge help for our business in doing this.

"We can ensure our job scheduling is efficient by tasking the closest driver to a job nearby, we have the data to back up our work history if any invoicing issues were to arise, and we know our drivers are staying safe and not speeding, which could put them at risk.

"When you’re in charge a fleet of vehicles, it’s vital to have an easily accessible and user friendly system, and Masternaut has provided that.”

Masternaut’s system allows Midland Cryogenics to monitor driver behaviour, providing data on speeding, idling, mileage and harsh events.

This data gives Midland Cryogenics the information needed to reduce driver risk and provide a safe working environment.

Reducing speeding is particularly important to the company since dangerous chemicals are carried in its vehicles.
