Case Study: Eaton Sales & Service LLC reduces speeding by 30% and fuel use by 10% with Trimble Fleet Management and Driver Safety

Trimble Driver Safety Helps Improve Driver Habits At Eaton

Eaton Sales & Service LLC, a petroleum equipment service provider with nine Rocky Mountain locations serving five states, relied on a fleet that travels hundreds of miles daily. While Eaton already used Trimble Fleet Management for routing and vehicle tracking, the company faced challenges with hazardous driving behaviors, unauthorized vehicle use, fuel waste, higher insurance risk and premature vehicle wear.

Eaton expanded its deployment with Trimble Driver Safety to monitor speeding, hard braking, harsh turns and aggressive acceleration, using exception reports, weekly driver summaries, manager coaching and in-vehicle alerts. The result: speeding dropped more than 30%, fuel use fell about 10%, unauthorized use was eliminated, timecard verification and operational efficiency improved, and customer satisfaction and vehicle longevity increased.
