Geotab Expands Fleet Management Capabilities with New Innovations
Geotab, a global leader in connected transportation solutions, has recently announced two significant innovations:
Driver Risk Insights and
Work Order Management. These tools aim to enhance the efficiency and safety of fleet operations. By leveraging advanced AI analytics, these solutions are designed to minimize risks, streamline operations, and ultimately reduce costs for fleet managers.
Driver Risk Insights: Predict and Prevent Accidents
The first innovation, Driver Risk Insights, is an advanced feature integrated into the Geotab Safety Center. This tool offers fleet managers unprecedented visibility into the individual risk factors of drivers. This goes beyond traditional vehicle data, allowing fleets—especially those utilizing shared vehicles—to assess and predict individual accident risks.
Here’s how Driver Risk Insights benefits fleet managers:
- - Risk Assessment: This tool evaluates each driver’s likelihood of being involved in an accident by assigning a percentage risk score based on their driving behavior and historical trends.
- - Comparative Analysis: Fleet managers can compare a driver’s performance against that of similar drivers within the same fleet or across different fleets using Geotab's extensive aggregated and anonymized data.
- - Proactive Coaching: Through the Geotab Drive app, drivers receive feedback on their performance, helping them enhance their safety awareness and meet key performance indicators (KPIs) for the fleet.
According to Sabina Martin, Vice President of Product Management at Geotab, "Fleets cannot rely solely on reactive safety measures. With AI-powered Driver Risk Insights, we offer a predictive advantage that allows fleet managers and drivers to avert accidents before they happen, reduce expenditures, and continuously improve safety culture."
Work Order Management: Streamlining Fleet Maintenance
The second new tool, Work Order Management, is part of Geotab's Maintenance Center. This solution addresses the challenges of unexpected maintenance and rising repair costs faced by fleet managers. By facilitating the shift from reactive to predictive maintenance, Work Order Management is pivotal in enhancing operational efficiency.
Key benefits of Work Order Management include:
- - Centralized Management: Fleet managers can oversee all maintenance activities through a single interface, eliminating the need for multiple applications.
- - Operational Efficiency: The tool converts maintenance requests into work orders, tracks these orders, and analyzes associated costs and downtime.
- - Predictive Maintenance: Utilizing Geotab’s predictive analytics, managers can identify vehicles at risk of failure and schedule preventive maintenance before costly breakdowns occur.
Sabina Martin emphasizes the importance of this innovation, stating, "Fleet maintenance is a significant cost concern, and unexpected breakdowns can greatly impact operations. With this new solution integrated into the Geotab Maintenance Center, we equip fleet managers with the necessary tools to make data-driven decisions, minimizing unplanned downtime while optimizing maintenance workflows."
A Unified Approach to Fleet Optimization
The launch of Driver Risk Insights and Work Order Management underscores Geotab’s commitment to providing data-driven solutions that enhance safety, reduce costs, and improve operational efficiency. These innovations add to Geotab’s extensive network of centers, including the Geotab Sustainability Center, ultimately aiming to create a comprehensive fleet management ecosystem.
