The Asset Utilization tab displays how fleets are being used, and how often specific vehicles are being used. This reports aims to identity assets that may run the risk of overuse and call out vehicles that have sat idle for an extended period of time.
Utilization Range
This report identifies assets by whether they are utilized normally, under-utilized, or over-utilized. The utilization metric is determined by the following:
- Assets in the fleet have a set target amount of hours and/or miles they should be used per day.
- Assets within a certain range of this target amount are considered normally utilized, while assets that fall outside are under- or over-utilized.
- The utilization is displayed as a percentage. The percentage is calculated as the asset's hours or miles used per day (averaged if looking at more than one day) divided by the target hours or miles, rounded to the nearest whole number. For example, if the target mileage is 360 miles per day, an asset that is being driven 125 miles per day on average is 35% utilized, while an asset driven 300 miles per day is 83% utilized.
By default, Zonar assigns the following values:
- Target hours: The asset should be used for 8 target hours per day, including weekends.
- Target miles: The asset should be used for 360 target miles per day, including weekends.
- Utilization range: The range of how much the asset would be used in an ideal situation is between 80 and 100 percent.
These values are fully configurable in the Settings menu, which can be opened at the top of the page.
Asset Utilization
Report Metric: The report is laid out identically for each metric. Selecting one of the below tabs will adjust the data that is on display.
- Hours: Hours an asset's engine is on per day.
- Miles: Miles an asset has traveled per day.
Summary: Displays a high-level report for the fleet, restricted by any filters provided.
- Avg utilization: Displays the average utilization for the selected assets across the selected date range. For example, if Previous 7 Days is selected but no other filter is, this field shows the entire fleet's utilization over the past week.
- Avg hours/miles used (per day): Displays the average hours or miles used for the selected assets per day across the selected date range.
- Over utilized assets: Displays the total count of assets that ran over the ideal utilization range within the filters selected.
- Under utilized assets: Displays the total count of assets that ran under the ideal utilization range within the filters selected.
- Total assets: Displays the total count of assets that are being included in this summary depending on the filters selected.
Asset utilization: Displays a pie chart of the fleet by utilization range.
Utilization trend: Displays a line chart of the filtered date range and the average utilization for the fleet per day. The red dotted line shows the average utilization across the date range. Hover over a point on the chart to see stats for that day.
Utilized assets: Displays a list of filtered assets with information about their utilization.
- Utilization: Displays the asset's utilization both as a percentage and as a category indicated by the icon.
