Fleet management system for 700 golf carts

Handicart rents 700 golf carts, spread over 120 golf courses throughout the Netherlands.

They were looking for a solution to more efficiently manage their fleet. A system with which they can monitor which golf carts are rented out and which golf carts require maintenance or need to be recharged.

Our solution

To realise this we developed a tailor-made fleet management system

Handicart now collects information at one location on the mileage, battery charging cycles, energy consumption, location, etc.

The golf club now has real time insight into where the golf carts are located and clients can book a golf cart through the same system.

More efficient fleet management with IoT

With our solutions Handicart can manage its fleet more easily:

More efficient maintenance of the golf carts
Easy booking system
Matching the use of golf carts with the payments

Longer lifespan thanks to more efficient maintenance

As a result of the new system, Handicart can properly monitor the maintenance per cart. If maintenance is not performed, the system automatically transmits a reminder by email or SMS.

By conducting maintenance more consistently, Handicart extends the lifespan of the carts. This provides substantial savings on replacement costs in the long run.

They also save on unnecessary maintenance costs such as battery replacement: these should be replaced every 5 years. But if it is evident from the measurement data that a set is still functioning well, Handicart will keep them longer.

Easy booking system

On request we also developed an online booking system. This makes it easier for the golf club to manage the distribution of the golf carts on site.

The actual use of the carts is linked to the payment system. In this way it is exactly clear when a payment must take place.

Ground-breaking

Remote monitoring of mileage, energy consumption, location and more
Centralized booking system for users
Better planning of maintenance and charging cycles
