Other updates could add new features to your vehicle, just as when Ford added Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility to SYNC 3 through USB and WiFi updates several years ago.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Some updates will be virtually invisible to customers, enabled by an innovative platform that installs much of the new software in the background. This new platform keeps current software running until the new version is ready for activation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Customers can select a regular time they are not using the vehicle\u00a0to schedule updates their vehicle is off, meaning they may not even notice the installation occurred once they start their car. Most other updates can be activated in under two minutes, while any updates that may require the vehicle to be parked can be scheduled to take place when customers find it most convenient.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Customers can receive notifications detailing the software updates when they are available and can even opt in to have the updates applied automatically over Wi-Fi or cellular connections. In-vehicle alerts will then tell customers what updates were installed when they start the vehicle the next time.<\/p>\n<div class=\"field field-name-body\">\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fleetforward.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.fleetforward.com<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center\">FLEET MANAGEMENT AUDIT<\/h3>\n<p>Fleet management is the use of a set of vehicles in order to provide services to a third-party, or to perform a task for our organization, in the most efficient and productive manner with a determined level of service and cost.<\/p>\n<p>Fleet management activities are shown in the following graph 1:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1106 size-full\" title=\"fleet management activities\" src=\"http:\/\/en.advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/grafico-AFMC-en.jpg\" alt=\"fleet management activities\" width=\"1600\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/06\/grafico-AFMC-en.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/06\/grafico-AFMC-en-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/06\/grafico-AFMC-en-1024x512.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Graph 1: fleet management activities<\/p>\n<p>The proposal audit analyses and assesses all fleet management activities shown in the graph 1, and its main goals are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Know the overall status of the fleet management activities<\/li>\n<li>Provide the analysis, the assessment, the advice, the suggestions and the actions to take in order to cut costs and increase the efficiency and efficacy of the fleet management\u00a0 activities<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>With the information obtained, we\u2019ll elaborate a report that holds the overall status of the fleet management as well as the suggestions, recommendations and the measures to take in order to cut costs and optimize the fleet management activities.<\/p>\n<p>CLICK ON THE FOLLOWING LINK TO DOWNLOAD THE PROPOSED FLEET MANAGEMENT AUDIT:<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/en.advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Fleet-Management-Audit-AFMC.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fleet Management Audit AFMC<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>Contact:<\/p>\n<p>Jos\u00e9 Miguel Fern\u00e1ndez G\u00f3mez<\/p>\n<p>34 678254874<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ford to Equip Vehicles with Remote Update Technology In 2020, Ford will begin equipping most redesigned vehicles in the U.S. with advanced over-the-air update (OTA) technology, making it easy to wirelessly upgrade vehicles with quality, capability, and convenience updates that can help improve vehicles over time and reduce dealer trips.
