Nowadays there is an active introduction of technology in various spheres of life all over the world. There is a crowding out of the human labor through the creation of complex digital systems and algorithms. Technological trends are also observed in the field of automobile transport. One of the elements of this trend is the introduction of vehicle operation monitoring systems. The number of variations of monitoring systems is very large, as with any explosive growth of technological innovations. Each company selects the appropriate system individually for its needs. Moreover, operational monitoring systems are becoming an indispensable element of the company's activities. They allow to bring the work to a new level of quality, reduce transportation costs and increase the efficiency of the company. The relevance of the chosen topic is justified by the growing need for the implementation of a monitoring system in the activities of trucking companies and the development of a methodology that allows to streamline the process of this implementation. The aim of the final qualification work is to develop measures that increase the efficiency of the trucking company using vehicle operation monitoring systems. The research methodology primarily includes the analysis and consolidation of relevant literature. The main advantages for the company, which introduce a system for monitoring the operation of vehicles were identified using the deduction method. Also, a system implementation methodology was developed using the induction method. Final qualification work consists of introduction, three chapters, conclusion and list of sources. The first chapter provides an analysis and description of the vehicle operation monitoring system. Also, this chapter contains a comparative analysis of systems among the leaders of manufacturers of monitoring systems in Russia. Moreover, in this part the selection methods and experience in the application of monitoring systems for the operation of vehicles were consolidated. In the second chapter, there are recommendations for the implementation of monitoring systems at the motor transport enterprise, and in the third chapter, the effectiveness of the implementation of the developed methodology is proved by the example of the existing transport company.
