Efficient management of on-highway fleets can be achieved using the latest Trimble package
The new FieldMaster Logs application from 2122 Trimble will assist construction firms running on-highway trucks in better scheduling of their fleets. This package has now been registered with the US 4170 Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) as a self-certified Electronic Logging Device (ELD) solution.


The package offers hours of service (HOS) and driver vehicle inspection report (DVIR) tools as part of its fleet management portfolio. The package logs and tracks driver activity and advises the driver about hours remaining. The system also reports to managers to measure driver activity and availability. Using FieldMaster Log’s DVIR features ensure that drivers perform safety inspections of their vehicle and that vehicle issues are captured and communicated to the maintenance team.  

Trimble’s Fleet Management portfolio offers reliable hardware and software solutions for capturing vehicle positions, tracking driver behavior and communicating with the vehicle’s engine to obtain diagnostics.
