The Role of GPS in Cost-Effective Operations

GPS-based route planning is essential for optimizing the movement of field technicians. QUICKTEL’s Real-Time GPS Tracking feature provides supervisors with up-to-the-minute information on technician locations, enabling smarter decisions.

GPS data allows dispatchers to send the nearest available technician to a job, cutting down unnecessary travel.

Reduced Downtime: Minimize the time technicians spend traveling between tasks.
Maximized Productivity: Assign more tasks per shift without overburdening your team.
