Spireon to Launch FleetLocate Driver Performance Program with Coach Joe Gibbs at NAFA
Knoxville, TN, April 20, 2012 - Spireon, the
industry's leading provider of Mobile Resource Management (MRM) and
business intelligence solutions used by organizations worldwide, is
launching its' new FleetLocate Joe Gibbs Driver Performance Program
at the NAFA Expo in St. Louis, Missouri, April 22-23.
A co-branded program developed by Spireon's FleetLocate team and
Joe Gibbs Racing, the Driver Performance Program is a turnkey
solution designed to improve driver behavior and performance
through positive reinforcement, recognition, and contest-based
incentives.
"FleetLocate's Joe Gibbs Driver Performance Program is unlike
any other system used to monitor and improve driver productivity
and safety," explains Steve Blair, Vice President and General
Manager of FleetLocate, "the Driver Performance Program eliminates
"managing in the rear view mirror", enables positive change,
delivers improved driver behavior through real-time trending
feedback, and provides positive reinforcement and coaching by Joe
Gibbs, the former Super Bowl-winning coach of the Washington
Redskins and current owner of a three-time NASCAR champion racing
team."
Designed for enterprise fleets, the Driver Performance Program
promises to deliver a rapid return on investment. "Today's
enterprises are searching high and low across their organizations
to find opportunities to save costs, improve operational
performance and drive profits," explains Blair. "The Driver
Performance Program will have a substantial positive impact on
these companies' bottom line by curbing those driver behaviors that
are costing them millions of dollars each year."
As an example, Blair points out that FleetLocate's clients have
realized up to a 50% reduction in idle time as a direct result of
improved driver performance and behavior.
The FleetLocate Joe Gibbs Driver Performance Program is the
first and only solution on the market that influences improved
driver behavior with a fun, engaging and positive incentive format.
Individual drivers and teams of drivers compete for rewards and
recognition during a competition "season", and can view their
stats, rankings and scores on their smartphones via an easy-to-read
dashboard. Similarly, fleet managers also have complete access to a
wealth of driver performance information.
The Driver Performance Program introduces a number of additional
features that distinguish it from other products on the market
designed to monitor driver behavior. The Driver Performance
Program:
- Is a complete program that includes a mobile application, an
incentive and awards package, and guidelines and support for
implementation.
- Includes a library of animated driver performance tip videos
from Coach Joe Gibbs.
- Provides constructive performance summaries directly to the
driver so he or she can easily self-identify areas for
improvement.
- Creates a relationship with the driver, promoting loyalty and
employee satisfaction.
Attendees will have the opportunity to test out the Driver
Performance Program at the NAFA Expo on April 22nd and 23rd. "We
will also demo our new mobile app on Sunday, April 22nd at 3:00 pm
in our FleetLocate booth," says Blair. The demonstration of Fleet's
new Driver Performance Program will showcase the user-friendly,
intuitive dashboard that provides snapshot views of:
- Scores, rankings and standings for any individual driver or
team by week or by season
- Detailed pages for each driver with his or her individual
performance information
- FleetLocate management reports detailing idle time, speeding,
hard braking, rapid acceleration, fuel consumption, distance and
other information by driver or team
At the end of a "season," drivers and teams are rewarded not
only for having the highest scores and standings, but also for
making the most improvements. "This truly is the only race where
the safest driver wins," adds Blair, "Which also means a win for
the companies that employ them."
NAFA attendees are invited to stop by FleetLocate's booth #1515
for a hands-on look at the new Driver Performance Program.
