Monitor fleet usage and utilization
Use the Usage Monitoring page to track how efficiently your vehicles are being deployed, identify assets that are idle or underutilized, and act on critical usage events before they affect operations or maintenance schedules.Before you start
- Manager or Admin role required.
- Usage data is generated by vehicles with active DataLogger OBD devices. Assets without a device show 0% utilization and no engine hours.
Steps
Open the Usage Monitoring page
- In the left navigation, click Fleet.
- Click the Usage Monitoring card (labeled “92% FLEET UTILIZED” on the Fleet Intelligence dashboard). The page opens at
Fleet Management › Usage Monitoring.
Read the summary tiles
Five tiles at the top of the page summarize the period (default: the most recent 7 days):| Tile | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Active Assets | Number of assets that recorded at least one trip |
| Avg Utilization | Fleet-wide average utilization percentage |
| Idle Time | Total hours the fleet spent idling |
| Miles Driven | Total miles driven across all assets |
| Underutilized | Count of assets flagged as underutilized (click to filter the Fleet Assets table) |
Change the date range
Click the date range label at the top of the page (for example, “May 15, 2026 — May 22, 2026”) or use the 7D, 30D, and 90D buttons on the Utilization Dynamics chart.Read the Utilization Dynamics chart
The Utilization Dynamics chart plots two metrics over time:- Active % — the percentage of assets active on each day (left axis, 0–100%)
- Avg Engine Hrs — average engine hours per active asset per day (right axis)
Review the Fleet Assets table
The Fleet Assets table lists every registered asset with the following columns: Asset, Device, Trips, Miles, Engine Hrs, Util %, Status, and Last Active.- Assets above the utilization target show “Above utilization target” in the Status column.
- Assets below the target show “Below utilization target” and may be candidates for redeployment.
- Click View All Report (top right of the table) to open the full fleet report at
Fleet Reports.
Act on Critical Events
The Critical Events section lists usage-triggered alerts categorized by type:| Type filter | Events included |
|---|---|
| Idle | Excessive idling alerts (for example, “Truck #221 idle > 4 hrs today”) |
| Low use | Low runtime alerts (for example, “Excavator #11 under 2 hrs use this week”) |
| High use | High runtime alerts (for example, “Vehicle #310 high runtime (>12 hrs/day)”) |
