    (Lead City University, 2022-12) Dajah Vincent ALI
    The overall use and purpose of the improved fleet management system is the computerized management of fleet and other vehicular equipment. This is done to eliminate the use of manual system that rely on the use of books and manual documentation. The aim of the study is to develop a database that will be used to capture and store users’ data, trucks and vehicular equipment data. To develop a web application interface that will track trucks and drives in real time and to able to view users’ profile, trucks and other information and will be able to run reports from the system, develop a real time tracking and monitoring algorithm, also to be able to use the system as comparative measure to analyze existing systems. Methodology used was a web application developed using HTML, CSS and JavaScript for the front-end, while PHP was used for the server side. Also, flutter was used to develop the mobile application which runs on an android device that will be resident with the person operating the vehicle or truck. After successful development, quality testing was conducted on all unit of the project and system was tested for throughput and response time. The system was simulated for system behavior when multiple users are using the system at a time, and the average response time is 134ms for 25 users at a time. In conclusion, this system will be of great benefit to organizations that manages large fleet of trucks or vehicles for their operation, general recommendations are for such organizations or government agencies to adopt the use of a fleet management system and government at all levels to enforce the use of this system.
