Android app automates HOS and more

March 29, 2013

Markham, ON-based Complete Innovations Inc.has launched Fleet Complete Action Tracker HOS, an Android application that it said fully automates hours of service (HOS) and driver vehicle inspection activities and replaces time-consuming manual paperwork with an automatic digital logbook.

According to the company, Action Tracker HOS automatically logs driving hours and calculates driving availability, ensuring easier HOS compliance.

Using the app, drivers can view their available hours, manage their duty status and complete vehicle inspection reports, all on their tablet.

 Action Tracker HOS reduces the chance of human error and saves the time previously spent recording, calculating, and managing driving availability via traditional paper-based logs, noted Complete Innovations.

In addition, per the company, audits and reporting are simplified with all current and historic log data available for reporting and further analysis 24 hours a day, 7 days a week via Fleet Complete.

Action Tracker HOS is 100% compliant with all current Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) Canadian DOT log requirements, and is ready to support the FMCSA HOS rule changes slated to become effective July 1st.The company said that all of the app’s HOS rule tables are configurable, making adaptation of any future HOS rule changes simple and easy.

“We designed Action Tracker HOS to be the best solution in the industry, one that offers the deepest capabilities and the highest level of flexibility,” said Complete Innovations CEO Tony Lourakis.  “We always aim to provide the best functionality, service and value to our customers.  By combining our application with Android tablets, we can bring a top-tier automated HOS solution to the cabs of fleets of all sizes at an affordable price point.”

Fleets can add Action Tracker HOS to their Fleet Complete subscription for $7 per month per vehicle and the service is available from AT&T for U.S. customers and from Telus for Canadian customers.

The Action Tracker HOS application is currently available on the Google Play Store.
