EROAD Fleet Management Software Releases & New Features – September 2023

Earlier this year, we launched our new route planning and ETA tool which allows customers to enter truck information like load type, weight, height and more, to get compliant routes.

In August, we further enhanced this feature in response to customer feedback. Users can now select any entity that has an address – like a geofence – and be routed to it.

In September, we launched our new Sustainability Module, providing customers with multiple sustainability metrics and reports. It’s a powerful tool for fleets who are ready to start measuring, reporting and taking action to reduce emissions and save costs.

As well as insights into fleet emissions, it also helps customers to benchmark their performance against fleets that are similar in size and type.

The module can be accessed from MyEROAD, and is free of charge for all customers until September 2024.

In collaboration with EECA (the Energy Efficiency & Conservation Authority), we launched our free web-based vehicle emissions calculator for fleets who aren’t currently using EROAD.

Leveraging EROAD data, the EROAD Emissions Calculator aims to help more New Zealand fleets embark on their decarbonisation journey by providing the basic tools for measurement and goal-setting.

Based on feedback from customers, we have added the ‘Scheduled export’ feature to the Driver Details page on Leaderboard. We’ve also updated the Driver Leaderboard report to provide the information in a clearer format.

We recently rolled out enhanced provisioning for customers who are swapping out or upgrading their Ehubo devices. The tool reduces the time taken to complete installs, by automatically completing provisioning of new units, carrying over any RUC or autoRUC settings as well as automatic completion of the RUCHO form.

As well as this, customers can now view the status of any installs and copies of the RUCHO form and install slip in one place.

MyEROAD:

For faster loading of reports in MyEROAD, we have modified the way searches are performed so that a user can set multiple parameters before executing it. This makes it much faster for reports to load, and is now available in Geofence Daily Activity and Geofence Site Activity reports, with more coming soon.

Core360:

We’ve improved the load time of the Total Distance report from several minutes to ~7 seconds, allowing all customers to get a quick overview of their vehicle usage.

Making the Booker Experience better

We’ve released brand new functionality for bookers using EROAD BookIt, including letting them know if their vehicle is ready and waiting, or if it’s not back, they can now get a live ETA on when it will arrive.

New BookIt Dashboards – Sustainability, User and Fleet

We’ve released three new dashboards for managing a shared fleet.

Sustainability: Customers can understand how their fleet or branch compares to other organisations on EV adoption and utilisation.

User Activity: Gain insights into booking activity for specific users.

Fleet Activity: A tool to help admins move vehicles around between under- and over-utilised branches.
