Case Study: Minerals Technologies Inc. achieves accurate real-time productivity tracking with Geotab

Achieving Top Productivity with Telematics

Minerals Technologies, a surface‑mining company based in Belle Fourche, SD, runs a diverse 66‑vehicle fleet across a 60+ mile operation and struggled to accurately measure fleet miles and operator productivity. Fleet Manager Rodney Raber relied on time‑consuming paper reports and lacked an automated, real‑time way to provide employees timely productivity feedback used for raises and bonuses.

By deploying the Geotab GO telematics device with a reseller and customizing data capture (combining driver toggle switches and transmission lock data), the company now gets reliable connectivity, automated daily reports, and tailored dashboards. The solution delivers real‑time operator feedback via shop displays, frees up Raber’s time from manual reporting, and produces clear performance trends that drive productivity improvements and operational/financial optimization.
