Get the Most Out of Your GPS Investment

Most transport companies already have GPS tracking. It’s fitted, it’s paid for, and it ticks the box for compliance and security. The problem is most of that data goes unused.

A dot on a map doesn’t make you more efficient. If you’re not using the information to plan jobs, cut costs, and keep customers happy, you’re sitting on a cost without getting the return it can deliver.

Stratum links directly to your GPS and telematics providers so the data flows straight into your TMS. From there, it’s used in planning, reporting, and cost control… not just stored in another login you never check.

Turn tracking into action

With GPS data feeding into the TMS, you can:

• Plan smarter – Assign the right job to the right vehicle based on actual location and driver status. Avoid wasted mileage and empty runs.
• Get the real cost – Match mileage with fuel, hours, and job data to see accurate cost-per-job and margin performance.
• Bill accurately – Track time spent at each location, identify bottlenecks, and recover costs through accurate demurrage billing.
• Stay on top of maintenance – Use actual mileage to trigger servicing and compliance checks.

Why this matters

If GPS is just a tracking map for you, you’re missing out on:

• Lower operational costs through tighter route efficiency
• Improved customer service with accurate ETAs
• Billing that’s backed by hard data
• Less manual admin

If you’re running refrigeration…

If you’re moving temperature-sensitive goods, Stratum’s GPS integration goes further. You can:

• Monitor temperatures in real-time – Ensure compliance with temperature regulations throughout the journey.
• Control fridge running hours and ATPs – Manage and document refrigeration unit activity for audit purposes.
• Streamline proof of temperature audits – Provide detailed, compliant reports for every job, exceeding customer expectations.

Stratum’s tools are designed to help you manage cold-chain logistics efficiently, from pre-cooling to delivery, all within one system.

Getting return on your telematics investment

We integrate with the big GPS and telematics names, so you keep the system you’ve got. Once connected, the data lands in the TMS and gets used automatically.

You’ve already paid for the GPS hardware and the subscription. Stratum ensures you get the maximum operational and financial return from that investment.

If you’re tracking your fleet but still relying on guesswork for planning and cost control, you’re wasting an asset you already own.
