Fleet Compliance with Geotab

Maintain Fleet Compliance with Geotab

Geotab compliance solutions through Fuel Express automate the records regulators require: the FMCSA-registered Geotab Drive ELD tracks Hours of Service and warns drivers before violations, inspection data and international fuel tax miles compile automatically, and everything stays ready for a roadside records request — inside the same system tracking the rest of your fleet.

Fleet compliance solutions turn vehicle data into the records regulators require — driver hours, inspections, and fuel tax miles — replacing paperwork with automatic capture. The fine you avoid is the feature.

Fuel Express has helped fleet operators control costs for decades. We can put powerful modern tools for fleet compliance in your hands through our partnership with Geotab. Along with many other fleet optimization features, Geotab works as an electronic logging device (ELD). Registered with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, the Geotab Drive app presents an easy-to-use ELD solution inside a robust fleet tracking system.

Comprehensive ELD Services

Use Geotab to record driver hours, international fuel tax miles, and inspection data. The electronic system works with real-time data and greatly reduces your paperwork load. You and your drivers can track compliance with Hours of Service regulations at a glance. With minimal effort, you’ll always be ready to satisfy requests for information from law enforcement.

You don’t want to expose yourself to liability or fines for violating HOS regulations. Geotab ELD alerts your drivers to upcoming violations so that they can avoid them. When violations do happen, you’ll get real-time reports about who’s responsible.

Fleet Compliance Solutions Made with Drivers in Mind

Geotab has designed the ELD mobile app to limit demands on your drivers’ attention. The intuitive user interface guides drivers quickly through the steps necessary to maintain compliance records. Duty status changes are automatic, and exemptions can be applied with a touch to the screen. The system generates duty status graphs for you, and your drivers get pop-up reminders for important tasks.

The comprehensive inspection workflow within Geotab ELD makes Driver Vehicle Inspection Reporting easy for you. Track important data points like who found a defect and who performed repairs. You can even customize your defect list to finish reports faster. The app sends inspection reports to printers easily and informs your mechanics automatically about inspection results.

Built-In Flexibility

The technology developers at Geotab know that you have a heavy workload. That’s why Geotab ELD is ready to integrate with almost any fleet. It works with multiple transportation management systems and allows for over-the-air updates. It’s also compatible with Android or iOS devices.

Does Geotab handle DVIR and driver identification?

Yes — Geotab’s compliance platform covers Driver Vehicle Inspection Reporting (DVIR) and driver identification alongside Hours of Service, with more than 100 rulesets and exemptions covering US and Canadian regulations, managed through the Geotab Drive mobile app for Android and iOS [Source: geotab.com]. For fleets crossing state lines or the border, that ruleset coverage is what keeps one system sufficient instead of one per jurisdiction.

How does automated fuel tax (IFTA) reporting work?

Geotab tracks miles by state and province for each vehicle from odometer readings at jurisdiction entry and exit, automating the mileage side of IFTA reporting [Source: geotab.com]. Pair that with your Fuel Express fuel card records — every fuel purchase logged with location, gallons, and date — and the two halves of a quarterly IFTA filing, miles per jurisdiction and fuel bought per jurisdiction, assemble themselves from systems you already run.

What happens at a roadside inspection?

The records are already in hand. Drivers show current Hours of Service status at a glance, inspection histories live in the system rather than a folder, and law enforcement information requests get answered from real-time data [on-page]. Geotab ELD also alerts drivers to upcoming HOS violations before they happen — so the inspection conversation is about records you have, not records you owe.

Driver hours, driver vehicle inspection data, and international fuel tax miles — captured from vehicle data in real time, which cuts the paperwork load and keeps records current for law enforcement requests.

Far less. Hours of Service status shows at a glance, inspection records live in the system, and information requests are answered from real-time data — the ELD replaces the paper log burden that inspections used to mean.
