About The Customer
Lake Erie Trans is a state and local government organization operating within the transportation sector. The organization is responsible for managing a fleet of vehicles and ensuring the safety and efficiency of its operations. As a government entity, Lake Erie Trans is committed to maintaining high standards of safety and operational efficiency while minimizing environmental impact. The organization sought a solution that could help improve driver behavior, reduce accidents, and optimize fleet operations. By implementing GreenRoad's driver and fleet performance management solution, Lake Erie Trans aimed to achieve meaningful and lasting behavior change among its drivers, leading to safer and more efficient fleet operations.
The Challenge
Lake Erie Trans faced significant challenges in ensuring driver safety, reducing risks, and minimizing the number of accidents. The organization was in search of a solution that could effectively address these issues by improving driver behavior and providing accurate reporting and alerts. The primary drivers for selecting a solution included the need to enhance driver safety, reduce risk, and decrease the number of accidents. The organization evaluated various vendors, including Zonar, before ultimately choosing GreenRoad for its superior performance, ease of use, reliability, and scalability.
The Solution
Lake Erie Trans implemented GreenRoad's driver and fleet performance management solution to address its challenges. The solution engages drivers directly to promote meaningful and lasting behavior change, while also providing fleet tracking, mapping, and reporting capabilities to optimize daily and strategic operations. GreenRoad's advanced mathematic modeling and cutting-edge technology enable the organization to accurately predict and intercept risky driving behaviors. The solution's key features include in-vehicle video monitoring, routing or dispatching software, and other reporting systems, which work in conjunction with GreenRoad to enhance fleet safety and efficiency. By leveraging these capabilities, Lake Erie Trans was able to improve in-vehicle driver behavior, reduce the number of driver-related incidents, and lower overall costs through accurate reports and alerts.

Airport SCADA Systems Improve Service Levels
Modern airports are one of the busiest environments on Earth and rely on process automation equipment to ensure service operators achieve their KPIs. Increasingly airport SCADA systems are being used to control all aspects of the operation and associated facilities. This is because unplanned system downtime can cost dearly, both in terms of reduced revenues and the associated loss of customer satisfaction due to inevitable travel inconvenience and disruption.

Digitize Railway with Deutsche Bahn
To reduce maintenance costs and delay-causing failures for Deutsche Bahn. They need manual measurements by a position measurement system based on custom-made MEMS sensor clusters, which allow autonomous and continuous monitoring with wireless data transmission and long battery. They were looking for data pre-processing solution in the sensor and machine learning algorithms in the cloud so as to detect critical wear.

Cold Chain Transportation and Refrigerated Fleet Management System
1) Create a digital connected transportation solution to retrofit cold chain trailers with real-time tracking and controls. 2) Prevent multi-million dollar losses due to theft or spoilage. 3) Deliver a digital chain-of-custody solution for door to door load monitoring and security. 4) Provide a trusted multi-fleet solution in a single application with granular data and access controls.
Case Study
Vehicle Fleet Analytics
Organizations frequently implement a maintenance strategy for their fleets of vehicles using a combination of time and usage based maintenance schedules. While effective as a whole, time and usage based schedules do not take into account driving patterns, environmental factors, and sensors currently deployed within the vehicle measuring crank voltage, ignition voltage, and acceleration, all of which have a significant influence on the overall health of the vehicle.In a typical fleet, a large percentage of road calls are related to electrical failure, with battery failure being a common cause. Battery failures result in unmet service agreement levels and costly re-adjustment of scheduled to provide replacement vehicles. To reduce the impact of unplanned maintenance, the transportation logistics company was interested in a trial of C3 Vehicle Fleet Analytics.

3M Gains Real-Time Insight with Cloud Solution
The company has a long track record of innovative technology solutions. For example, 3M helps its customers optimize parking operations by automating fee collection and other processes. To improve support for this rapidly expanding segment, 3M needed to automate its own data collection and reporting. The company had recently purchased the assets of parking, tolling, and automatic license plate reader businesses, and required better insight into these acquisitions. Chad Reed, Global Business Manager for 3M Parking Systems, says, “With thousands of installations across the world, we couldn’t keep track of our software and hardware deployments, which made it difficult to understand our market penetration.” 3M wanted a tracking application that sales staff could use to get real-time information about the type and location of 3M products in parking lots and garages. So that it could be used on-site with potential customers, the solution would have to provide access to data anytime, anywhere, and from an array of mobile devices. Jason Fox, Mobile Application Architect at 3M, upped the ante by volunteering to deliver the new app in one weekend. For Fox and his team, these requirements meant turning to the cloud instead of an on-premises datacenter. “My first thought was to go directly to the cloud because we needed to provide access not only to our salespeople, but to resellers who didn’t have access to our internal network,” says Fox. “The cloud just seemed like a logical choice.”
