With the no small cargo van available, what alternatives are you using? We have seen upgrading to a full size van, truck with a topper and mini vans with a utility conversion. What has been successful in your fleet and what has not worked?

A strategy for identifying cost savings is reviewing your fleet policy. During the review, you can identify, clarify and possibly amend key areas that can lead to savings. A few key areas to considers are: - What are the mileage requirements to be eligible for a fleet vehicle? What do we do if a driver is under the threshold? - Can drivers use the vehicle for personal use? Are the drivers being charged monthly for this benefit? - Are cycling parameters set appropriately and followed? - Do we have the right vehicle for the job? Can we look at alternatives that would lead to savings? - Are hybrids part of our 3-5 year fleet initiative? Looking at your fleet policy can help answer questions on the current financial state of the fleet and forecast savings based on strategic positioning of eligibility, vehicle type and leveraging the newest technologies.

That is a game changer!!! This will definitely change the strategy in the upcoming ordering cycles.

Geotab Connect shed a ton of light on camera applications in fleet vehicles. It was interesting to see the multiple solutions. For example, road facing, road and in-cab facing and a dynamic camera that included up to 5 additional cameras that can be placed on different areas of the vehicle. Regardless of the application, the integration into telematics and with AI is incredible. I would love to hear what the conversation is with other fleets on implementing a camera program? How has it gone over with leadership and with drivers?
