Leading trucking fleets are adding on-board video-based performance improvement platforms to their safety programs to get the answers they need.

Whatever the size, type or use of your vehicles, the benefits of dashcams paired with accurate telematics data are plentiful. In this guide, we explore how GPS tracking, driver behavior data and in-cab video recorders can boost safety, efficiency and effectiveness across your entire operation.

Program Aired: October 7, 2021. Join us for this webinar to learn how to leverage trailer telematics and sensors to gain greater visibility and control to help avoid catastrophic trailer-involved incidents, improve safety, reduce maintenance costs and maximize operational efficiency.

Program Aired: August 26, 2021. What is your fleet’s most utilized asset? The least utilized? If you don’t know, you’re likely over or underinvesting in your fleet operations. In this webinar, experts from a leading connected intelligence company will explore how telematics can help you monitor and improve asset utilization and enable a more efficient, profitable business.  

Great Dane announced its FleetPulse telematics platform is now standard on its new dry and refrigerated trailers, including an integrated controller area network harness to prepare equipment for future smart technology adoption.

Ford Motor Co. is making its telematics system available to all commercial vehicle manufacturers, the company announced.

Trucking technology supplier E-Smart, which offers capabilities such as adaptive speed control and load-based power management, also is pursuing opportunities to connect truck and trailer data.

In its latest survey on the top issues confronting trucking, the American Transportation Research Institute (ATRI), identified rising insurance as an emerging issue. Since 2013, per ATRI data, fleets surveyed have been walloped by insurance premium costs that have jumped over 17%.

The data underpinning equipment and freight deliveries carries many benefits for fleets willing to integrate factory-installed telematics, service communications and fleet management solutions into a useful stream of data, experts said Oct. 22 during American Trucking Associations’ Management Conference & Exhibition.

Last-mile delivery for any fleet operation — big or small — is only as efficient as the communication between the driver and dispatch.
