Asda aims for green dividend in telematics roll-out

Supermarket chain Asda is putting the "green" dividend strongly to the for in a major real-time vehicle tracking and mobile fleet management programme that is about to start implementing.

The company is talking about benefits such as reduced fuel consumption and carbon footprint alongside improved driver communication and safety and improved "delivery experience" at stores. In terms of fuel consumption, it says it is looking for a 5 per cent saving by 2010.

Asda has chosen Isotrak to supply the system, integrating it with an existing routing, scheduling and resource allocation system called GTS from Manhattan Associates.
