Operational Impact
Accurate and Accessible Data – Entering and looking up fuel and fluid data was no longer time consuming. | |
Precise Reporting – Staff could run accurate reports at any time to make sure that all of the day’s in-use vehicles were fueled prior to transporting passengers. | |
Decreased PM and Repair Costs – Isolating fuel and oil anomalies in real-time indicates problems as they arise. This allows for on-the-fly problem solving that helps Metro Transit reduce costs by stopping the waste and fixing the problem before it requires significant repair expenses. | |
Quantitative Benefit
Metro Transit’s environmental impact has effectively eliminated at least 4,500 vehicles from area roads. | |
The transmission oil is now used for 70,000 miles rather than 12,000 miles. This benefits the environment by safely removing well over 100,000 gallons of oil from their annual waste oil load. | |
