Verizon Deploys Fleet Management Solution for Caltrans
2014-09-21 19:13:12| AutomotiveDigest.com - Automotive Industry News
Verizon is deploying a fleet management solution for Caltrans, the California Department of Transportation, to enhance the departments visibility into the operations of its fleet assets. With deployment to nearly 7,500 state-owned vehicles, including sedans, trucks, snowplows and portable signage, slated for completion by the end of September, Caltrans intends to use the Verizon Networkfleet GPS-based units to assist in the dispatch of its statewide fleet and improve the departments overall fleet asset management practices to boost responsiveness, drive efficiency and reduce costs. The fleet management solution will also enable Caltrans to automate its manual usage reports (called Cartags) currently used by department employees. Caltrans anticipates that the automation of employee usage reports alone will yield estimated annual savings of 28,000 salary hours, or nearly $500,000.

There are many aspects of global fleet management that can be daunting for the fleet professional. Perhaps the most difficult is also the most tangible: on an average day, the fleet manager could be thousands of miles away from the vehicles they oversee. Technology is bridging the gap. Opening NAFAs International Fleet Academy (IFA), keynote speaker Kevin Moore, Vice President Automotive OEM Sales, Telogis, Inc. will discuss how telematics are changing the landscape for fleet. Moore will detail how cloud-based location intelligence software platforms will have a transformative effect on the way that global businesses optimize their mobile assets and critical data, and will share his insights relating to innovation in developing actionable information for fleet tools including dashboards, managing trends for fuels, safety, driver behavior, and vehicle usage, disaster relief strategies, and more. For a limited time, attendees who register before September 30 can take advantage of early-bird pricing.

A recent GE Capital Fleet Services survey indicates businesses that provide company cars are more likely to retain employees than those that reimburse personal vehicle usage for work purposes. Notably, 87 percent of current company car users and 63 percent of personal vehicle users would not consider another company if it did not offer a company vehicle. With the impact of not providing a company vehicle being felt in both human resources and on the bottom line, businesses should evaluate if a company-provided vehicle can better contribute to their combined cost-saving and employee retention goals.
