The challenge
Atlas Glass was looking to replace an outdated RT system with a new communications solution for their mobile workforce - one that would allow them to optimise productivity levels, while also reining in high telecommunications costs.

The solution
Vodafone remedied the situation with a blend of 3G technology, wireless broadband, mobile services and their talkZoneZero business plan.

Plus, Vodafone's dedicated partner team sourced a third-party wireless vehicle tracking solution, Navman. As a result, Atlas Glass slashed overall communcation costs by 42%, saving thousands every month. They now direct their mobile workforce with pinpoint accuracy, dramatically reducing downtime, unnecessary travel and enhancing customer response times.

• Enhanced customer service, and faster response times.
• Vastly improved fleet management, with real-time tracking and accurate timekeeping.
• Increased productivity - as much as 1.5 hours per day for each team member (when this time would previously have been spent doing paperwork or getting to a job).
• Less wasted travel time, and lower fuel costs.
• Vodafone roaming and mobile broadband ensures access to information for senior management, at home or overseas, to make business-critical decisions in real-time.
