The ALD Automotive | Wheels Global Alliance is announcing the launch of GlobalFleetReporting.com (GFR), a new global data visualization and reporting solution that consolidates fleet management data from multiple sources, including third-party data, in a secure and confidential manner.
“Global clients often work with multiple partners around the world and are frequently challenged to compile a complete and aggregated picture of their fleet,” adds Dan Frank, President and CEO of Wheels. “We’re excited to help clients gain control of their own data with our new tool that generates meaningful insights and facilitates optimal decision making.”
Available for clients of the ALD | Wheels Global Alliance, GRF brings together operational performance metrics and consolidated fleet data to help clients manage their fleet on a global scale. Highly flexible and easy to use, GFR allows clients to assemble and analyze consolidated fleet inventory at a vehicle level and cost data at an aggregated level.
