Case Study: City of Hillsboro, Oregon improves fleet tracking and compliance with Zonar smart fleet management

City of Hillsboro, Oregon saves hours of upfitting time with Zonar

The City of Hillsboro, Oregon faced challenges managing its mixed fleet of nearly 150 vehicles across departments like public works and parks & recreation. Key issues included inefficient dispatch, difficulty locating stranded vehicles, inability to verify driver conduct, and cumbersome environmental reporting. To address these, the city chose smart fleet management solutions from vendor Zonar Systems.

Implementing Zonar's solutions, including the V4 TCU, LD TCU, and open API integrated with Ground Traffic Control software, provided real-time GPS tracking and data analytics. This enabled faster dispatch and roadside assistance, exonerated safe drivers with location data, and streamlined snow plow route tracking. Results included more accurate environmental compliance reporting, significant time savings in installing and decommissioning light-duty vehicle trackers, and reduced fuel waste from idling. Zonar's support and API were key reasons Hillsboro continued the partnership.
