Summary/Abstract: The dynamic growth in the supply of road transport services and fiercer competition between forwarding companies stimulate an increase in interest and implementation of modern telematic systems. In addition to improving the economic efficiency of an enterprise and the security of transported cargo, these systems allow one to control the parameters of drivers' work, vehicle monitoring and support in the management of transport orders. The objective of the paper is a qualitative analysis of the functionality of telematic systems in the process of fleet management on the example of selected modules of the systems implemented in a road transport company. The study is of a research- analytical character and the case study presented may serve as an inspiration for other transport companies to try to optimize their fleet management.
