Fleet PPM overview
About Fleet PPM
Fleet PPM allows companies to see the average outbound prices-per-mile for their whole fleet, based on the vehicle’s current location.
How tracking works
Fleet PPM works by tracking the locations of the vehicles in your fleet. It can do this in two ways:
Automatically:
- Via a telematics integration
- Via the CX Driver app (provided the driver has tracking on). Learn how to switch tracking on via the CX Driver app.
With either of these options, the location of your vehicles will automatically update in Fleet PPM.
Manually:
You can manually update a vehicle’s location via ‘My Fleet’ on the Exchange desktop application. Learn more here.

Does Fleet PPM guarantee me winning loads?
Fleet PPM doesn’t ensure you win every load you quote for, but it does empower smarter quoting. With location-specific prices-per-mile data for each vehicle, you can tailor quotes to match market conditions and quote more accurately.
How Fleet PPM data is calculated
Fleet PPM is based on aggregated & anonymised data from booked loads on the TEG platform. Data is updated daily and based on a rolling 7-day average of prices-per-mile for the location your vehicles are currently in.

Using Fleet PPM
Troubleshooting
No data in the Post Code column
If you see 'No Data' in the PostCode column, this could be for two reasons:
a) Tracking has not been enabled for the vehicle.
Tracking can be enabled for a vehicle either automatically, or manually. Learn more here.
b) Last tracking update has been more than an hour
If your vehicle has tracking enabled but is still returning 'No Data' in the post code column, this could be because it has been more than one hour since we've received a tracking update. To fix this, you can update the vehicle's location manually. Learn more.
Switching tracking on via the CX Driver app
To switch vehicle tracking on, your driver will need to click the 'Tracking' button on their CX Driver app, as shown below.
Updating a vehicle's location manually
- Go to 'My Fleet' in the Exchange.
- To update a vehicle's location, click the pencil icon under 'Current Location/Last Tracked' to edit.
- You must enter a full Postcode in order for the Fleet PPM to register the location.
Does Fleet PPM work for vehicle’s located outside the UK?
No. Fleet PPM will only return prices-per-mile data for vehicles located within the UK.

Fleet PPM vs Home PPM
