Mobility Solutions for Fleets
Merchants Fleet is developing a connected vehicle program designed to help businesses identify vehicles in need of maintenance, monitor driver behavior to improve safety, detect and mitigate fraud, and track vehicle location for scheduling and route optimization.
Sponsors for the 2019 Fleet Forward Conference answer four questions regarding their mobility strategies as they relate to commercial, corporate, and government fleets.
Merchants Fleet CEO Brendan P. Keegan will discuss the trend toward an increasingly mobile future and how FleetTech partners like Merchants are equipped to manage and connect this diverse system for their enterprise clients at TechCrunch Sessions: Mobility, July 10 in San Jose, Calif.
While harvesting data and new concepts such as shared mobility may reduce fleet size, Keegan says the increased importance of utilization and return on net assets make conserving fleet spend is an imperative.
John Cail of Merchants Fleet outlines use cases in which fleet operators are implementing technology to facilitate automated, on-demand access to vehicles. The higher utilization is allowing them to eliminate 15% of their fleet vehicles — and in some cases 30%.
