Employee Theft

When talking with potential customers about the benefits of GPS tracking for their fleets of vehicles, we often bring up theft recovery.  For the most part, I thought of this GPS tracking benefit in regards to the thief you don't know.  Recently, we have had a couple of instances where employees have stolen vehicles.  In both cases, our GPS tracking units and service were able to help our customer recover their $50K worth of vehicle and equipment in an expedited fashion.

There are so many cost benefits for fleet GPS tracking, but these 2 incidents have more than paid for the benefits for an entire year for the entire fleet.  I somewhat understand how the employee's mind thinks "it's just a pen or a few sheets of paper", but I am baffled by the thought of "I'm taking the company truck".  But, it happens.  

I really enjoy hearing when customers are getting great benefits from their fleet tracking.  It's easy and makes financial sense.

Keep an eye out (or a virtual eye)!
