  • brings a consistent, intuitive user experience that encourages widespread, constant use
  • plans to on-board over 2600 users within 12 months (migrating most of our existing Logbook 1.0 customers)
  • reduces the administrative burden for both our customers and the NZTA in recording and monitoring driver performance.
  • integrates with EROAD's cloud-based platform, Depot, giving drivers a seamless link to our modern Inspection service (Inspect)
