Case Study: City of St. Petersburg cuts asset location time from days to minutes with Samsara

The City of St. Petersburg cuts time to locate assets from days to minutes with Samsara

The City of St. Petersburg faced limited visibility into its vehicles and critical equipment, making it difficult to improve utilization, efficiency, and emergency response. After evaluating other options, the City chose Samsara for real-time vehicle telematics and asset tracking, including Samsara Vehicle Gateways and Asset Tag, to better manage assets across multiple departments.

Samsara implemented a phased rollout with seamless integration for Ford Pro vehicles and a central dashboard for fleet data, helping the City activate devices quickly and scale across 10 departments. The results included finding assets in seconds instead of days, locating broken-down units within minutes, and improving driver safety with a 23% decrease in harsh driving events and an 11% decrease in speeding events.
