Fleet status on the Vigilo platform: vehicles needing urgent service, services to schedule and vehicles in good shape

Fleet status on the Vigilo platform: at a glance, which vehicles need service now, which to schedule and which are in good shape.

  • Alerts by miles, hours or dateEvery schedule runs on the actual mileage and engine hours from the tracker, not on estimates or spreadsheets.
  • Nothing goes overdueOil, filters, tires, brakes, state inspection: alerts before each due date.
  • Full history for every motorcoachEvery job is logged with its date, mileage and cost: useful for warranties, audits and when you sell the vehicle.
  • Fewer road callsA part replaced on time won’t leave the motorcoach stranded in the middle of a trip.
  • Scheduled shop visitsService is planned when it disrupts the least, not when the vehicle breaks down.
  • Safer passengersBrakes, tires and steering checked on time: safer for drivers and passengers.

Where you save by keeping maintenance up to date

  1. Cheaper repairsScheduled service costs less than an emergency repair: parts at regular prices, no rush fees and no knock-on damage to the engine or transmission.
  2. No tow trucks or roadside callsNo towing and no sending a mechanic out to wherever the vehicle broke down.
  3. No lost tripsNo replacement motorcoaches, no canceled or subcontracted trips and no passengers waiting because of a breakdown.
  4. Less downtimeDrivers aren’t left waiting around and the shop works by appointment, with no overtime.
  5. Less fuelClean filters, fresh oil and proper tire pressure help keep fuel use under control.
  6. Vehicles that last longerLess wear on the engine, brakes and transmission, and a full service record that protects resale value.
  7. No fines or out-of-service ordersInspections on time: no fines and no vehicles sidelined by expired paperwork.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions about GPS tracking and fleet management

What are the benefits of GPS tracking for charter buses?

You always know where every motorcoach and every trip is, check routes and times, track fuel use and maintenance, and get the cameras and the Driver APP on the same Vigilo platform.

Can I see which driver is on each motorcoach?

Yes. The platform identifies the driver of each vehicle, and with the Driver APP the driver starts the shift on the assigned vehicle.

What do cameras add on a motorcoach?

Live video of the road and the driver seat, ADAS and DMS video alerts for collisions, fatigue or distraction, and a recording of every trip to settle any incident.

What does the Driver APP do on a charter trip?

The driver starts the shift, completes the vehicle inspection, checks hours and documents and reports incidents from a cell phone, using data from the tracker already installed.

How does Vigilo alert me about maintenance?

You create a schedule for each vehicle with alerts by mileage, engine hours or date. Vigilo uses the actual mileage and hours from the tracker and alerts you on the platform before each due date, with a full service history.

How much will I save?

This page has two calculators: one for GPS savings (fuel, mileage and overtime) and one for accessories. Both use your own fleet data.
