ROAD TECH Computer Systems are celebrating the success of Tachomaster, their tachograph analysis system which was launched in 2006, when tachographs went digital and last month Tachomaster’s servers recorded that it had successfully analysed 173,656,087 drivers card, chart and vehicle downloads since its launch, making it the ‘undisputed market leader’.
A spokesperson for the company said: ‘We know how many drivers cards have been issued by the DVLA and we know how many have been seen by our servers, so the numbers are an exact science.’
Although Road Tech have been successfully writing and developing software systems exclusively for the transport industry since 1984, they launched Tachomaster in 2006 without it having a single customer.
In 2005, with the imminent arrival of the digital tachograph, they saw an opportunity to completely revolutionise the tachograph market by writing a system that went ‘way beyond compliance.
Tachomaster was a completely new and innovative concept that utilised all the information held on the tacho head. This innovative approach meant that, for the first time, the road transport industry would benefit not only from instant live real time tachograph analysis, but detailed management information and reporting concerning its two most expensive assets, its vehicles and its drivers.
The price of Tachomaster remains unchanged since its 2006 launch.
