GPS Tracking

[Chesapeake]

Anyone using a GPS tracking system on there trucks to keep an eye on there crews? Looks like it would be a good way to keep track of actual hours on site vs. time sheets.

Uhm, as humorous as that site is, we need to be mindful that it allows the potential for a lot of security breeches, and potential for harvested cell phone numbers that might not be the best thing.

UPS and Aramark uses a Tracking system now to track their trucks.

10 dollars a month. just testing this now. I will let all know..... Plus they offer time card and billing software options. You have to have your own server for this other stuff.

It says they don't collect or log the numbers. I read thru the source and it's just a button, it doesn't actually go to any database. Good looking out though scott, I never put my real inform. anywhere on the internet, except in PWI and maybe one other. I think it's almost comical that people give places like MySpace and Facebook all of their real information. Probably not funny, but sad.
