The solution

The challenge — and how Argus solves it.

The challenge

Underused vehicles, inefficient job assignment, and unproven job completion all erode margin. Without visibility into where drivers are and how vehicles are being used, managers are guessing — and guessing costs money.

How Argus solves it

Argus gives you a live, accurate view of every vehicle and driver so you can make smarter operational decisions in real time. Pool Booking integrates directly with live GPS tracking, ensuring allocations always reflect actual availability and exposing underused assets. Driver ID via iButton tags creates accurate automated timesheets and fair job-by-job billing. Replay provides timestamped proof of delivery or job completion to resolve disputes immediately. Route Planning with live traffic cuts kilometres between jobs and proves efficiency to customers and leadership alike.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How can I improve my fleet's productivity?
Argus gives you a live, accurate view of every vehicle and driver so you can make smarter decisions in real time. Pool Booking links allocations to live GPS availability and exposes underused assets, closest-driver routing cuts idle kilometres between jobs, and Driver ID via iButton tags produces accurate timesheets and fair billing. Replay provides timestamped proof of job completion, helping you remove the guesswork that erodes margin.
How do I assign the nearest driver to a job?
Argus Route Planning shows every driver's live position on Google Maps and uses live-traffic routing to assign the closest available driver to each job. This cuts idle travel and unnecessary kilometres between jobs, so you respond to customers faster and get more done in a day. Because allocations reflect real-time GPS positions, dispatch decisions are based on where drivers actually are, not guesswork.
Can I prove a job or delivery was completed?
Yes. Argus Replay provides a timestamped record of every journey, giving you proof of delivery or job completion to resolve disputes immediately. You can step back through the exact route, stops, and times for any vehicle. This objective evidence settles customer queries and billing disagreements quickly, and demonstrates efficiency to both customers and leadership without relying on a driver's recollection.
How do GPS timesheets work for fleet drivers?
Argus Driver ID uses iButton tags to identify who is driving each vehicle, creating accurate automated timesheets and fair job-by-job billing per driver. GPS trip data records start and finish times automatically, removing manual time recording and reducing payroll disputes. This gives you a reliable basis for paying drivers and billing customers correctly for the work actually performed.
How do I find underused vehicles in my fleet?
Argus Pool Booking integrates directly with live GPS tracking, so vehicle allocations always reflect actual availability and underused assets are exposed. Seeing which vehicles sit idle helps you right-size the fleet or redistribute work. The FIRM Framework's Fleet Optimisation dimension goes further, benchmarking and improving operational efficiency so you can systematically lift utilisation across the whole fleet over time.
