The efficiency of vehicle fleet management using the example of a company transporting a T60 medium

The transport of hazardous substances is an integral part of today's society. Nearly 90% of dangerous goods are transported by road in Poland. Due to the lack of a nationwide monitoring system, based on the electronic transmission of data related to the transport of this cargo, it is extremely important to comply with transport safety rules right from loading. In order to improve the efficiency of the fleet, it is important to implement monitoring at each stage of the transport of hazardous materials. In the case of the transport of dangerous goods, monitoring is one of the elements that minimise the consequences of accidents by, among other things, pinpointing the exact location of the vehicle, checking the vehicle's route and the driver's compliance with traffic regulations and working time limits. The aim of this study is to present the concept of effective truck fleet management. The hypothesis of the thesis identifies areas through which the efficiency of fleet management can be improved, using the example of a company transporting a medium T60.
