Managing a diverse fleet of powered industrial vehicles and operators while ensuring safety, compliance, and productivity can feel daunting in the fast-paced environments of warehouses, distribution centres, and manufacturing facilities.
We understand that you experience known challenges and unanticipated obstacles daily - from stringent health and safety regulations to labour shortages and unplanned equipment downtime, often leading to bottlenecks, extra costs, and increased risks.
The right technology partner can empower you with ultimate visibility and control, so you can bolster safety measures, streamline compliance processes, and achieve operational excellence.
Powerfleet is here to help. Let’s explore the challenges we can overcome in partnership.
Challenges We Can Overcome Together
Problem:
Skilled labour shortages in the supply chain put pressure on your resources, forcing you to rely on less experienced workers to meet business goals. This increases risks, impacts productivity, and affects overall business health.
Solution:
With Powerfleet, you can get real-time data and insights to optimise workplace safety, improve efficiency, and increase productivity. Manage equipment access based on driver identification to determine who uses it, how they use it, and when. By optimising your safety and utilisation levels, you’re more likely to attract and retain quality employees.
Problem:
Close interaction between pedestrians and heavy equipment poses critical safety risks in your workplace.
Solution:
Powerfleet’s AI-powered Pedestrian Proximity Detection system provides real-time driver notifications and identifies alert zones to help you improve safety. It works in conjunction with our Forklift Gateway and Speed Manager solutions to help identify near misses, capture event details like breach location, time, and driver identification — and even slow or deactivate a forklift accelerator pedal when an alert zone is breached.
Problem:
Meeting regulations compliance requirements is paramount, and you simply can’t afford lengthy or disorganised processes that hinder adherence. Streamlining and automating compliance activities is crucial for optimal efficiency and risk management. Many companies still rely on manual, error-prone processes.
Solution:
Powerfleet streamlines and automates compliance workflows, from safety checklists to vehicle access controls, reducing the risk of violations and improving adherence to regulations.
Problem:
When material handling equipment is down, it leads to operational delays, increased costs and more risk to your company’s reputation. You need a way to simplify fleet maintenance efforts, enhance equipment longevity, and minimise unplanned downtime.
Solution:
Powerfleet equips you with a proactive and preventive maintenance approach that leverages real-world, real-time usage hours and alerts to help you identify potential maintenance issues. This helps to ensure you don’t under or over-service your equipment so you can keep it running longer and maximise uptime.
Problem:
It’s common to have a mixed fleet of powered industrial vehicles across various OEMs. However, manually gathering, monitoring, and interpreting data from an array of different systems results in incomplete insights, biased decisions, and operational inefficiencies.
Solution:
Powerfleet’s OEM-agnostic platform, Unity, does the heavy lifting by ingesting data from all your disconnected data sources, including any IoT device or sensor, OEM, or business system. By transforming this data into actionable insights, you can make more informed decisions — and feel confident about expanding your fleet in whatever way benefits your operation. It also alleviates the pain of mergers and acquisitions activity by providing immediate visibility into your expanded fleet.
Problem:
Too often, managers rely solely on manual processes to manage their fleet and safety activities, as well as to create compliance, maintenance, and utilisation reports. This leads to error-prone, biased reporting – and poorer results. Likewise, having disparate data systems across your fleet can hinder data unification efforts and create additional challenges.
Solution:
Powerfleet’s data-agnostic platform, Unity, not only connects and harmonises data from your on-campus fleet of forklifts and other vehicles but also unifies business operations through advanced ingestion and third-party integration capabilities. Also, our detailed KPI-based dashboards offer an in-depth view into your operations, enhancing reporting accuracy, capturing real-time insights, and enabling swift, informed decisions.

Forklift Gateway (VAC)
Automated, and wireless tracking and control for industrial vehicles and operators, that can seamlessly integrate with forklifts as a key part of your fleet intelligence system. Forklift Gateway helps enforce safety protocols, monitor operator activities, and track vehicle health in real-time, enabling safer, smarter, and more accountable operations.
Industrial truck fleet and operator management
- Supports driver authentication via nearly all wireless access control ID types and keypads
- Enforce configurable, multilingual electronic pre-use safety checklists
- Establish a connection with machine-learning impact sensors to detect and report damage
- Continuously monitor performance data to inform proactive maintenance and compliance
- Seamlessly integrate with optional external sensors including DVR, GPS, load and speed sensors, as well as Pedestrian Proximity Detection
- Seamlessly integrate with Unity, Powerfleet’s data platform, for centralised intelligence and reporting
Pedestrian Proximity Detection
An AI-enabled vision system that detects pedestrians and industrial vehicles in the path of travel—no wearables or special apparel required. It alerts operators with visual and audible warnings in real-time, helping prevent collisions and reduce liability, while capturing event data for reporting and coaching via Unity.
AI-enabled vision system for pedestrian and vehicle safety warning
- Uses automatic object detection—no special apparel or wearable tags needed
- Detect people and vehicles based on proximity and direction of travel
- Provide up to five configurable alert zones with escalating severity levels
- Deliver visual and audible risk notifications to operators in real time
- Capture event details including breach location, time, and operator identity
- Integrates with Unity, our SaaS-based AIoT platform for analysis, mapping, and safety insights
Digital Video Recorder
Powerfleet’s Digital Video Recorder captures critical video clips based on safety-related events like impacts, speeding, or policy violations. With continuous recording and up to four connected cameras, it enables rapid incident investigation, supports driver coaching, and helps reduce liability – whether you’re operating online or fully offline.
