GPS tracking and hardwarePhone GPS captures active work trips about once a minute. IntelliTrac devices add continuous tracking, ignition, engine, driver and video data.
GPS tracking and hardwareYes. IntelliTrac devices and phone-tracked trips can share one fleet map, vehicle history and report set during a staged hardware rollout.
GPS tracking and hardwareIntelliTrac designs and builds plug-in and installed GPS trackers, dashcams, multi-camera systems, asset tags and satellite trackers in Australia.
Plan your rollout, import your fleet data and keep tracking live while hardware is installed.
Getting startedUse the IntelliTrac driver app to track work trips before devices are fitted, then install IntelliTrac hardware for continuous vehicle data.
Getting startedUpload an existing CSV or Excel fleet spreadsheet. Review where each column belongs and fix any rows IntelliTrac flags before saving.
Getting startedMost fleets can start using IntelliTrac within days. Hardware installation is planned around vehicle availability while the old system stays active.
FBT, fuel tax credits, Chain of Responsibility and the rules on telling drivers.
Compliance and taxIntelliTrac captures pool-car drivers, trip purposes, odometer readings and overnight garaging to support FBT reporting.

Plain definitions of the Australian fleet and compliance terms no one explains: FBT, fuel tax credits, Chain of Responsibility, work diaries, mass limits and more.
CoRChain of Responsibility is the principle in the Heavy Vehicle National Law that everyone with influence over a transport task, not just the driver, shares legal responsibility for its safety.
EWDAn electronic work diary is an NHVR-approved electronic system that records a heavy vehicle driver's work and rest times as a voluntary alternative to the written work diary.
Standard, BFM and AFMFatigue management under the Heavy Vehicle National Law sets maximum work and minimum rest times for drivers of fatigue-regulated heavy vehicles, with three levels: Standard hours, Basic Fatigue Management and Advanced Fatigue Management.
Fleet terminologyFleet utilisation is the share of a vehicle's available time, or capacity, that is actually used for work, and it is the single number that reveals how many vehicles a fleet really needs.
FBTFringe benefits tax is the tax an employer pays when a work car is available for an employee's private use, calculated on the car's value or its running costs and paid by the employer, not the driver.
FTCFuel tax credits refund part of the fuel excise built into the price of fuel used for business, claimed on the BAS, with the rate depending on the fuel, the vehicle, how the fuel was used and when it was bought.
