Electronic Work Diary (EWD)

Ditch the Paper, Embrace Efficiency - The Power of Electronic Work Diaries in Heavy Vehicle Transport

For heavy vehicle drivers and fleet managers, keeping accurate and compliant work diaries has always been a time-consuming and error-prone chore. Traditional paper diaries are cumbersome to manage, susceptible to mistakes, and often a source of frustration.

The good news? Electronic Work Diaries (EWDs) are revolutionizing the way drivers track their work and rest periods. At Tri Axle Group, we’re passionate about helping businesses leverage the power of EWDs to achieve:

  • Effortless Compliance: EWDs automatically capture and record driving times, rest breaks, work activities, and vehicle inspections, ensuring adherence to fatigue management regulations a specified in Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL). This reduces the risk of fines and penalties for non-compliance.
  • Enhanced Accuracy: Forget manual calculations and messy handwriting. EWDs eliminate human error by automatically recording data, providing a clear and accurate record of work and rest periods.
  • Streamlined Workflows: EWDs seamlessly integrate with fleet management software, allowing for real-time monitoring of driver activity. This translates to simplified data transfer, reduced paperwork, and improved communication between drivers and managers.

Beyond Compliance: The Additional Benefits of EWDs

EWDs offer a multitude of advantages that extend beyond ensuring regulatory compliance. They can significantly improve:

  • Driver Productivity: EWDs eliminate the need for manual record-keeping, freeing up valuable driver time. This allows them to focus on safe driving and completing their deliveries efficiently.
  • Reduced Administration Burden: EWDs automate data collection and reporting, significantly reducing the time and effort required for fleet managers to administer work diaries. This frees them to dedicate more time to strategic tasks.
  • Improved Safety: EWDs can provide real-time fatigue alerts, reminding drivers to take rest breaks when needed. This helps to promote driver well-being and reduce the risk of fatigue-related accidents.
  • Enhanced Data Analysis: EWDs generate comprehensive data on driver activity and vehicle performance. This valuable data can be used to identify trends and inefficiencies, leading to informed decisions for route optimisation, driver training, and overall fleet management strategies.
