New Karcher Fleet Management System

Kärcher, the Germany, based cleaning equipment manufacturer, has brought to market Kärcher Fleet, a telematics system for organising machine fleets. Commercial cleaning contractors can use GPS and mobile telephony to find out where their scrubber-driers and sweepers are located, when they have been used to perform what work, and what condition they are in. Kärcher Fleet thus lays the foundation for optimisation and increased efficiency of everyday work routines.

With the Kärcher Fleet system, key information always reaches the right group of people, because it describes roles in a commercial cleaning company as defined by the customer and in a practice-oriented way. For example, machines that are due for servicing are highlighted for the branch manager, the controller receives information about the fleet’s capacity utilisation rate for the purpose of target/performance comparison and the facility manager can track his machines, check the battery status and produce work documentation as required.

Further benefits derive from combining Kärcher Fleet with a Kärcher service package. Kärcher service employees then monitor all machines online and can initiate maintenance work in good time so as to prevent costly down times. Another special feature is that the service technician can log into the machine via a remote connection, analyse faults and, if required, rectify them online, saving the cost of a callout and getting the machine back to work again faster.

Alfred Karcher invented the high pressure cleaner in 1950 and since then Karcher have continually optimized and developed their range and are now the world’s leading provider of cleaning systems, cleaning products and services for recreation, household, trade and industry. Karcher always has the right machine for you as well as the after sales service and support to back it up.
