Journey Manager 4.0 - click here for a list of new features. |
The Journey Manager software is the answer for ensuring
safe single-vehicle convoys and other work alone situations.
Whether it is used as a standalone application or as part
of your VDIS suite, this innovative package is a practical,
cost effective and simple solution for safety conscious companies.
Employees in a work-alone situation call in to your dispatch
to have their information recorded. Departure and Destination
is entered with pre-determined check-in times set.
If the employee fails to check-in at the appropriate time,
automatic warnings are displayed. Dispatch then takes action
to determine the cause of the missed check-in by calling the
employee, calling a supervisor or other appropriate measures
set out in company policy.
Complete records are kept of each Journey Manager alert, the
cause of the problem and how it was resolved.
Whether by company policy or legislation, the ability to consistently
record and track work-alone situations is a growing concern
for safety managers. This application gives a practical, cost
effective and simple solution to the problem.

Journey Manager 4.0 - New Features
| Using Microsoft's Silverlight technology Journey Manager 4.0 provides a Windows-like rich user experience operating entirely within the web browser.
Multiple operating systems and browsers are supported. |
| |
| VDIS will use Bing Maps for detailed public road mapping anywhere in the world. |
| |
| Use one or more of our GPS/AVL interfaces to track your vehicles' current locations and/or respond to panic alarms. |
| |
| Zoom the map directly to the vehicle whose journey you are tracking. |
| |
| Zoom the map to an address, latitude/longitude coordinate, or LSD. |
| |
| Search for the current weather conditions at the driver's departure and destination areas. |

| |
| When a driver starts a return journey, the Journey Management Agent can generate a reverse journey based on the previous journey logged by the driver. |
| |
| When VDIS detects that the vehicle is within the municipal boundary of the destination, the Journey Management Agent is notified to take appropriate action, either closing the journey and sending an SMS text notification or contacting the driver. |
| |
| Journey Stats reports may be generated by manager and automatically emailed to the manager of each department to ensure Journey Management is being utilized. |
| |
| Comment templates can be created to auto-script the journey comment area. This will help make comment entry consistent between agents.
