Fleetistics Priority Notification Service (PNS) uses a round-robin notification process to alert key individuals of critical issues outside the noise of the standard GPS alerts. Notifications are sent via SMS and then a digital voice call. You select the key individuals to be notified and the order in which they are to be notified. The Priority Notification Service system will continue to send to the next user until a reply is received.
Why Priority Notifications?
In larger fleets, having one person responsible for critical issues creates a vulnerability. If that one person is unavailable due to travel, vacation, cellular coverage, or illness, then the critical issue is not addressed. By including multiple people in a notification process, others are automatically notified when the primary is unavailable.
This service is available for clients using Fleetistics ONE and Geotab platforms. Total functionality will vary by GPS device used and how it is installed.
