Custom Fleet Management Software Development
Monitor vehicle locations in real time, eliminate fuel pilferage, track driver performance, and streamline preventive maintenance with a custom IoT Fleet Management platform.
What is Fleet Management Software Development?
Our custom fleet management software connects commercial vehicle fleets with cloud telematics. It processes real-time GPS coordinates, fuel sensor data, engine diagnostic trouble codes (OBD-II / CAN bus), driver behavior metrics (harsh braking, over-speeding, excessive idling), tire rotation schedules, and statutory vehicle document renewals (insurance, fitness, FASTag).
Who Needs It: Commercial truck operators, bus and taxi fleet companies, corporate employee transport networks, ready-mix concrete suppliers, and delivery van fleets seeking to reduce operating expenses.
Business Challenges Solved: Stops fuel theft and unauthorized side-trips, prevents costly engine breakdowns caused by skipped oil changes, reduces insurance premiums by eliminating aggressive driving, and avoids heavy fines for expired vehicle permits.
Why Custom Over Off-the-Shelf: Standard off-the-shelf GPS tracking tools charge monthly per-vehicle subscription fees and offer generic tracking without fuel sensor calibration, custom trip cost accounting, or deep integration with internal ERPs. A custom fleet platform from Arvis Digital scales to thousands of vehicles with zero recurring per-vehicle fees.

Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers regarding customization, data ownership, integration capabilities, and deployment options for fleet management software development.
Which GPS tracker hardware brands work with your custom fleet software?
Our telematics backend is built on flexible protocols supporting major commercial hardware manufacturers including Teltonika, Concox, Queclink, Suntech, and standard OBD-II dongles, parsing raw GPS, speed, and sensor packets directly.
How does the software detect and alert against fuel theft?
We integrate with digital capacitive fuel level sensors installed inside fuel tanks. If the sensor detects a sudden drop in fuel volume (e.g., 20 liters in 5 minutes) while the vehicle engine is turned off, the system triggers an immediate emergency WhatsApp and SMS alert to the fleet manager.
How does driver behavior scoring work?
The telematics device’s built-in 3-axis accelerometer detects sudden g-forces indicating harsh braking, rapid acceleration, and dangerous cornering. The system logs these violations, correlates them with over-speeding instances, and computes an objective driver safety score out of 100.
Can the software trigger maintenance servicing automatically based on odometer readings?
Yes. The system reads true odometer data from GPS satellites or the vehicle’s CAN bus. You can configure servicing schedules (e.g., engine oil change every 10,000 km), and the system automatically generates service work orders as the vehicle approaches the threshold.
Can we track individual tires across our trucks?
Yes. Our tire management module tracks each tire by serial number, position on the axle, current tread depth, and retreading history, alerting you when tires need rotation or replacement.
Where is our fleet tracking and vehicle location data stored?
All telematics data is stored securely on your private cloud database (AWS, Azure, or DigitalOcean) with automated daily backups, ensuring full privacy and zero unauthorized third-party telemetry tracking.
