By Sunil Shrestha, founder · 18 years in limo & chauffeur software ·
Quick answer
Good chauffeur management software combines driver schedules and availability, document tracking, trip assignment, a driver mobile app for accepting jobs and updating status, and messaging with dispatch — in the same system that holds your bookings.
Key takeaways
- Keep schedules, documents and trip assignments in one system.
- A driver app removes phone calls for every status update.
- Look for farm-in / farm-out support when you work with partner operators.
What should it track for each chauffeur?
Availability, assigned vehicle, upcoming trips, and documents such as licenses and insurance dates, so nothing expires unnoticed.
How should trips be assigned?
Dispatchers should be able to drag trips onto chauffeurs or let the system suggest the nearest available driver, then see live status for every trip.
What belongs in the driver app?
Accepting jobs, turn-by-turn navigation, trip status updates, signature capture and chat with dispatch. LimoTrack's iOS and Android driver app is included in dispatch plans.
How do partner operators fit in?
Farm-out sends a trip you cannot cover to a partner; farm-in accepts overflow work from them. Check the software supports both.
