They adopted the Geotab Pro Plus plan, utilizing the Geotab platform along with their partner&#8217;s expertise to identify drivers exhibiting risky behaviors and establish a comprehensive driver scorecard. The company also integrated incident reviews, feedback training, and implemented &#8220;truce&#8221; or &#8220;cell control&#8221; technology. This technology, combining a device and a mobile app, restricted mobile phone usage during vehicle operation to emergency use only, ensuring zero distractions for drivers. Geotab&#8217;s platform further provided valuable insights into maintenance for precise exception reporting and helped maintain hours-of-service compliance for DOT-regulated drivers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2>Results: Noticeable Reduction in Incidents and Costs<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The company&#8217;s focused efforts led to a significant improvement in safety. A comparison of data from 2021 to 2022 showed a substantial 16% decrease in the number of incidents and a 33% reduction in related costs. These advancements in safety measures not only bolstered the company&#8217;s commitment to ensuring care and comfort but also reinforced their promise to enhance lives through heightened safety standards.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A prominent healthcare company, specializing in the manufacturing and servicing of beds used in healthcare facilities globally, operates a fleet that includes medium-duty trucks for bed transportation and light-duty vans for technician services.
