Coltrain Onsite Fleet Care Unveils SHIELD™

Coltrain Onsite Fleet Care, a family-run company specializing in mobile fleet maintenance, is excited to announce the launch of SHIELD™, its proprietary field service application. This innovative app is designed to set a new benchmark for quality in mobile fleet maintenance, a goal that aligns with the company's commitment to offering unparalleled services across 15 states.

SHIELD™: What It Is

SHIELD™ stands for Service, History, Inspection, Evaluation, Labor, and Documentation. The application allows fleet managers to access a transparent, time-stamped record of every preventive maintenance (PM) inspection conducted by technicians. Users can expect a new level of accountability, as every inspection point is documented with real measurements. For instance, parameters such as tire pressure, tread depth, brake measurements, and steering play values are collected as actual figures rather than simple pass/fail metrics.

Coltrain Onsite Fleet Care has dedicated significant resources to ensure that SHIELD™ can be easily learned by technicians and effectively integrated into their workflow. According to Kyle Coltrain, Co-Executive Officer, "SHIELD is how we hold ourselves accountable for the quality of our work." By employing this technology, the company ensures that all aspects of vehicle maintenance are documented thoroughly, creating a comprehensive visual record that enhances transparency and ensures reliability.

Key Features of SHIELD™

Enhanced Documentation

Unlike traditional inspection forms that merely provide a checklist, SHIELD™ captures essential real-time data during inspections. Each entry is paired with photographic evidence, making the system not only easy to use but also hard to neglect. This feature adds another layer of trust for clients who depend on Coltrain’s services for their fleet management needs.

User-Friendly Interface

The design of SHIELD™ focuses on the technician's experience. Kevin Coltrain, Co-Executive Officer, emphasized that the goal was to create a system that technicians could master in a single day and rely on every subsequent day. By stripping down unnecessary complexities in the workflow, the application allows technicians to allocate their focus on what they excel in—maintaining trucks and ensuring maximum fleet uptime.

Real-Time Insights

SHIELD™ is more than just a documentation tool; it is a dynamic platform that offers real-time insights into fleet conditions. Managers can quickly assess the health and performance of their fleet, making data-driven decisions to optimize operations.

Celebrating Growth

The launch of SHIELD™ aligns with Coltrain Onsite's first anniversary. Over this year, the company has experienced significant growth, expanding to include over 100 employees. This achievement is notably credited to their unwavering commitment to fulfilling each part of their 100-point inspections with precision. According to Kyle, "When you say you're doing a 100-point inspection, every single point gets done." This philosophy ensures that client satisfaction remains paramount.
