Proof of Service

The Proof of Service report displays sensor activity for monitoring and reporting of vehicles to deliver a comprehensive record of activity to the customers, who are monitoring contractual obligations or service level agreements (SLAs). The Proof of Service report enables you to monitor and report duration and distance travelled by the vehicles from sensor ON to sensor OFF. It provides a rich map view of daily, weekly, and monthly activity.

To win, retain and get paid for civil contracting or construction contracts, it is critical to be able to monitor and deliver proof that the required activity is being executed to a high standard. Proof of Service provides gold standard reporting with a map visualization of vehicle or fleet activity for the contracted period and area, as well as an auditable drill-down of every auxiliary equipment activation.

EROAD’s Ehubo2 and ETrack Wired can deliver an accurate, verifiable, record of service to your contract holders with up to three sensor inputs attached to auxiliary equipment. The Proof of Service report confirms that a comprehensive description of civil contracting activity is active, which includes gritter, sweeper, excavator, grader, or other vehicles with auxiliary equipment.

Both a map visualisation for quick proof of activity across a day, week, or month, and a CSV detailing requisite activity is available for download or scheduling — either to Project Managers for monitoring of the fleet’s activity or to the contract holder.

The Proof of Service report delivers a a highly accurate record of auxiliary equipment activity, drastically reducing the Project Manager’s time for contract reporting. Customers additionally have the option to provide the contract owner with login credentials to view activity completed in their own portal view. 

Note: See the Proof of Service FAQ help page for more information.
