Keeping track of 61 vehicles in a country of a million square kilometers is no small task.

In a measure designed to maximize donor and revenue investments, DKT has begun using a GPS-based fleet management system.

“Fleet management is actually standard in the West, but newer here,” says Rory Harrington, DKT Ethiopia’s Country Director.

“By bringing GPS technology into our vehicle management, we expect to decrease wear and tear and maximize route planning.”

The system uses a web-based platform that communicates with devices in each of DKT’s vehicles. Using the system, DKT can track fuel consumption, route travel, vehicle speed, and more.
