GPS Technology Application as a Tool of Streamlining the Operations of a Transport Business and Economic Analysis

Abstract:

This article discusses the conditions for and benefits of using the GPS technology and cost-effectiveness analysis of implementing the technology at a transport business. The GPS technology allows transport businesses to streamline their business management processes. This includes not only monitoring, but also supervision, including online supervision, of the process of delivering transport services. In particular, the technology allows transport businesses to identify the location of its vehicles, to monitor the work of their drivers and to modify the service delivery process to reflect new circumstances as they occur.
