JDS Properties & Developments Ltd

Construction fleet using vehicle tracking technology

Better Fleet Visibility, Improved Safety and Greater Control

JDS Properties & Developments Ltd is an established Cornish construction company, with vehicles and employees regularly travelling between sites and working across different locations.

For JDS, knowing where vehicles are isn't simply about tracking dots on a map. It's about protecting employees, improving health and safety, keeping accurate records and making better use of valuable working time.

The Wosson Solution

Wosson Telematics gives JDS live vehicle tracking and detailed journey history, providing management with an instant overview of where vehicles are, where they have been and how the fleet is being used.

This is particularly valuable when employees are working alone or travelling between remote sites. Having visibility of vehicle locations provides an additional layer of lone-worker protection and can help the business respond quickly if there is ever a concern about an employee's welfare.

Supporting Health & Safety

Construction businesses have a responsibility to manage risk both on site and on the road.

Wosson provides JDS with useful information on vehicle movements, driver behaviour and journey activity, helping the business promote safer driving and maintain greater visibility of employees working away from the main office.

Combined with Wosson's digital driver walk-around checks, vehicle defects can also be identified and reported quickly, supporting wider health and safety procedures.

Accurate Time on Site

For a business working across multiple customer locations, knowing exactly when employees arrive and leave a site provides valuable evidence of the time spent on each job.

Rather than relying solely on handwritten timesheets or memory, JDS can use accurate journey and location history to help verify employee working hours and time spent on site.

The same information can also support accurate customer billing, providing a clear record of attendance and time on site when labour or site time forms part of the invoice. If a query arises later, JDS has reliable historic information to refer back to.

When Time Costs Money

n construction, time is expensive. Unnecessary journeys, excessive idling, poor route planning or simply trying to establish where a vehicle or member of staff is can quickly add to operating costs.

With accurate live and historic information available instantly, JDS can reduce unnecessary phone calls, coordinate vehicles more efficiently and better understand how company vehicles are being utilised.

Mileage, journey history, idling and driver behaviour information also provide valuable insight into areas where fuel, vehicle wear and working time can potentially be reduced.

Keeping Operating Costs Under Control

With vehicle, fuel, labour and maintenance costs representing a significant expense for any construction business, having accurate information helps JDS make informed decisions rather than relying on assumptions.

Wosson Telematics brings that information together in one simple platform, helping JDS keep operating costs under control while improving safety, accountability and day-to-day efficiency.

Flexible for the Future

As requirements change, JDS can expand the system with additional Wosson features including Driver ID, connected vehicle cameras, CAN Bus vehicle data and additional monitoring, without having to move to a completely different platform.

More Than Just Vehicle Tracking

For JDS Properties & Developments Ltd, Wosson Telematics provides much more than vehicle locations. It gives the business greater visibility of its workforce and fleet, supports lone-worker protection and health & safety, provides evidence of time spent on site, helps ensure accurate customer billing and keeps operating costs under control.

Safer people. Accurate records. Better visibility. Greater control.
