The problem: Increasing driver stress is putting a strain on companies.

High traffic volumes, higher order volumes for parcel and delivery services, staff shortages and the increasing speed in our society are leading to ever higher stress levels, especially among drivers. Stress can trigger serious physical illnesses. Typical examples of physical illnesses caused by stress are: Cardiovascular diseases such as high blood pressure, cardiac arrhythmias or heart attacks.

The result: irritable driving behavior, higher accident rates and higher absenteeism rates due to ill drivers.
The consequence: less profitability and even greater staff shortages.

The solution approach: The Fairfleet Eco-App.

With the Eco app from Fairfleet, we offer drivers a valuable tool for a stress-free and more relaxed driving style. While driving and almost in real time. The aim is not to control the driver, but to provide real help by mirroring their own driving style.

The display gives the driver direct feedback on his driving behavior.

The added values of the Eco app:

Experience with the Eco app shows that most drivers measurably change their driving behavior.

The result: less driving stress
Other pleasing side effects of a stress-free and relaxed driving style include:

Reduction of energy and fuel costs
Reduction of CO2 and pollutant emissions
Reduction of fine dust pollution
Reduction of noise pollution
Reduction of maintenance and wear
Reduction of accidents and accident severity
Increased passenger comfort / fewer accidents
Positive public image

What are the typical drivers
concerns?

“If I drive like this, I can’t do my job, I can’t keep to my schedule.”

Why is this not the case?
Typically, the feeling arises almost exclusively in connection with delay or deadline pressure. Subjectively, we are convinced that we are responsible and have to “step on the gas”. In fact, however, telematics can prove that exactly the opposite is the case. With a relaxed and anticipatory driving style, the average speed is demonstrably increased and the destination is achieved.

Our punctuality depends on the traffic and not on our driving style!

cost savings due to less engine idling

Additional added value

The Eco app helps to prevent avoidable engine idling. It detects unnecessary engine idling and informs the driver to turn off the engine.

Even a daily idle time exceeding of 20 minutes adds up to 80 unnecessary engine operating hours per year and driver with about 240 working days. This makes about 280 liters of fuel consumption for a bus or truck and produces about 0.730 t of CO2 (for a diesel vehicle).

Reducing unnecessary engine idling is therefore good for you, all of us and the environment. All these factors improve our habitat and maintain our health.

How the Eco app works

The Fairfleet Eco app works in conjunction with Geotab telematics data (subject to appropriate tariff) from the vehicle. Through a coordinated evaluation of various factors, we actively support you in your driving style.

Whether diesel, gasoline, vehicles with gas or electric drive or fuel cell vehicles and whether passenger cars, vans, light trucks and heavy trucks, solo buses or articulated buses.

What else can the Eco-App do?

As a basic function, the Eco app offers the possibility of registering a trip on a vehicle in all Geotab telematics tariffs. Thus, a large number of reports can support and relieve both the driver and his employer.

How can the driver use the Eco app?

The Eco app is available in the Google Play Store and ready to use in just a few steps. The prerequisite is that the smartphone is online during operation. The use of the Eco app is free of charge for Fairfleet customers.
