Flynn RoadFreight Improves Their Customer Service and Simplifies Tachograph Compliance with Frotcom

Feb. 12, 2025 - PRLog -- Flynn RoadFreight, an Irish family-owned transportation and logistics business, has been delivering road transport, warehousing, and distribution services for over 30 years. In 2023, Flynn RoadFreight turned to Frotcom to address several fleet management challenges, including compliance, costs control, and operational efficiency.

Ensuring tachograph compliance was a top priority for Flynn RoadFreight, as it had been time-consuming and challenging. The company needed real-time visibility of drivers' remaining hours to schedule work efficiently and safely.

Fuel management was another key issue, as they aimed to cut consumption, reduce costs, and monitor their carbon footprint—an increasing concern for customers. To tackle this, they integrated with AllRound Systems for better tracking.

Finally, monitoring driver behavior and ensuring compliance with legal driving and rest periods was critical to maintaining safety and avoiding infractions.

To tackle these challenges, Flynn RoadFreight adopted Frotcom's advanced fleet management system. The training process was seamless, enabling their team to progressively implement new features as required. By utilizing Frotcom's advanced features, the company achieved notable improvements in its operations.

The Remote tachograph download feature allowed Flynn RoadFreight to manage tachograph files and driver card downloads automatically, ensuring compliance without manual intervention.

Fuel management offered detailed consumption insights, helping Flynn reduce costs and achieve significant savings. It also enabled them to track their fleet's carbon footprint and share this data with customers aiming for Net Zero.

API Integration allowed odometer data from Frotcom to be shared with AllRound Systems, which provided accurate fuel tracking to one of their key customers, DPD, optimizing fuel control and improving operational efficiency.

Driving behavior analysis helped the company monitor drivers closely, reducing idle times, improving safety, and boosting overall fuel efficiency.

Advanced dashboard provided valuable insights into fleet performance, highlighting inefficiencies in vehicles' utilization, reducing maintenance costs, and ensuring a balanced workload across the fleet.

CRM – Customer relationship management allowed Flynn RoadFreight to share real-time fleet data, such as trailer locations, with third-party customers, enhancing service quality.

Ms. Shauna Kirby, Ops Manager at Flynn RoadFreight, said:
"Along with the benefits of simplifying tachograph management, Frotcom allows us to monitor driver times and breaks closely, helping us assign drivers efficiently (...). We are thrilled to be working with Frotcom to integrate with a leading stock and inventory management solutions provider."

Using Frotcom, Flynn RoadFreight has optimized its fleet management processes, ensuring that its operations remain productive and efficient. They now have enhanced capabilities to monitor fuel consumption in their fleet and have improved compliance with legal requirements for vehicle tachograph data.
