Petrol pump maintenance company Gilbarco has signed a contract extension for the European-wide rollout of Cybit’s Fleetstar-Online telematics solution.

The deployment includes a further 170 vehicles across the Nordic region and follows the implementation of Fleetstar throughout the 200-strong UK engineer team. Cybit’s Fleetstar is now deployed on Gilbarco’s fleet in five countries.

Gilbarco’s service engineers cover many stations in a large geographical area, which makes engineer allocation critical to the success of the company – both on planned maintenance and reactive jobs. Fleetstar provides total vision over the whole business in real-time 24/7.

“The goals of our move to vehicle based tracking have been to improve engineer productivity, reduce operating costs through better process and planning and to provide metrics that manage service level agreements with our customers,” said David Coombe, European service director.

“The change and rapid return on investment was proven in the UK and really caught the imagination of our European colleagues.”
