- Compliance with present federal, state, and provincial laws governing the mandatory use of digital driver logs
- A significant reduction of paperwork

Hours of Service (HOS) Compliance
Regulations around hours of service are designed to keep fatigued drivers off the road. With Geotab, Fleet Profit Center can help you manage driver log reports and vehicle inspection data in one platform. Keeping a sharp eye on driver logs helps you reduce accidents, injuries, and fatalities caused by driver fatigue. The safety of your team contributes to the success of your company.
Driver Vehicle Inspection Reporting (DVIR)
Through the MyGeotab software, Fleet Profit Center can help you stay on top of the health of the vehicles in your fleet. Your drivers can electronically record defects and corrective action taken, as well as review previous inspections. Inspection reports will show who identified defects and when, as well as who repaired defects and when. Compliance with driver vehicle inspection reporting helps ensure the health and productivity of your fleet. The reporting helps you identify small problems before they become big ones. Fleet Profit Center makes it easy.
International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA) Management
If you operate heavy commercial vehicles that travel between states within the U.S., you are required to track all fuel expenses and distances travelled under the International Fuel Tax Agreement. With Geotab, Fleet Profit Center automates and simplifies the process for you – no more manual data entry. The Geotab tracking solution improves accuracy and saves you valuable time.
Achieving Compliance Using In-Cab and Mobile Device Integration
With either option of Geotab Drive or Garmin integration, Fleet Profit Center puts detailed and accurate and powerful fleet management solutions at your fingertips – at the office, in-cab, and anywhere on your mobile device – that complete your compliance solution requirements.
Geotab Drive
Geotab Drive is a smart driver app for Android and iOS phones and tablets. Syncing data between the Geotab GO device and the tablet, it works in conjunction with MyGeotab software to provide driver vehicle inspection reporting and an FMCSA-compliant HOS solution.
Geotab Drive provides several useful services to drivers in your fleet:
- DVIR (driver vehicle inspection reporting)
- HOS (hours of service)
- Driver identification
- Comes "off the shelf" for Android and iOS tablets or smartphones
- Plug-&-play ease of installation (no roof-mounted antennas needed)
- Open and flexible platform for adding and removing rulesets as regulations change

- One device runs all the driver's favourite driver applications

Hours of Service (HOS) with Geotab Drive
Ensuring driver safety and achieving the highest compliance standards are high priorities for drivers and managers. HOS regulations help keep fatigued drivers off public roadways by placing limits on when and how long a driver can be on the road. This reduces crashes, injuries, and fatalities related to operating commercial motor vehicles. Failure to comply can result in heavy fines, loss of license, or a fleet being stripped of its operating authority.
