About The Customer
Collins Earthworks Ltd is a leading earthmoving and construction company based in the United Kingdom. Over the past 15 years, the company has experienced significant growth, expanding from 50 to 400 employees. Collins Earthworks operates a fleet of over 40 vehicles and is comprised of five affiliated businesses. The company is known for its commitment to customer service and its investments in both its fleet and workforce. As a forward-looking organization, Collins Earthworks continuously seeks innovative solutions to improve its operations and maintain a competitive edge in the construction industry.
The Challenge
Collins Earthworks, a rapidly growing earthmoving business, faced challenges with their previous telematics system, which was insufficient for their expanding needs. The old system was primarily used to track the location of trucks, but as the company grew, they required a more comprehensive solution to enhance productivity, efficiency, and safety. The need for a better system became evident when they realized that their existing telematics could not provide the necessary insights and data to manage their fleet effectively. This led them to search for a new solution that could meet their evolving requirements and support their growth trajectory.
The Solution
Collins Earthworks chose Samsara's integrated solution, which includes vehicle gateways and dash cameras, to address their telematics needs. The decision was influenced by Samsara's reputation for innovation and its strong presence in the US market. The implementation of Samsara's dash cameras across more than 40 vehicles has significantly improved safety and driver behavior. The cameras automatically capture harsh events, allowing the company to focus on driver coaching and reducing public complaints. Additionally, Samsara's Fuel Reports have enabled Collins Earthworks to more accurately price their services by calculating fuel usage based on load weight. This has helped the company scale comfortably and improve operational efficiency.
Operational Impact
  • The deployment of Samsara's dash cameras has led to a massive reduction in public complaints and a positive change in driver attitudes towards safety.
  • The automatic capture of harsh events by the dash cameras has eliminated finger-pointing and facilitated effective driver coaching.
  • The footage from the dash cameras has been used to exonerate drivers in cases of disingenuous complaints, improving driver satisfaction.
  • Samsara's Fuel Reports have allowed Collins Earthworks to adjust future estimates based on accurate fuel usage data, enhancing pricing accuracy.
  • The real-time location tracking feature of Samsara's system has significantly improved the productivity of the team by saving time on vehicle tracking.
Quantitative Benefit
  • Collins Earthworks has grown from 50 to 400 employees in 15 years.
  • The company operates a fleet of over 40 vehicles equipped with Samsara's dash cameras.
  • The implementation of Samsara's solutions has reduced the time taken for certain tasks from hours to minutes.
