Enhancing Technician Safety and Operational Efficiency: A Case Study on Satellites Unlimited

Samsara

Satellites Unlimited (SUI), a leading regional service provider for a major national satellite company, was facing significant challenges in building a cutting-edge safety program. The company's safety program was largely based on anecdotal evidence from technicians and managers, which did not allow them to reliably identify the root cause of safety incidents. This became a pressing issue when SUI experienced two catastrophic vehicle incidents, resulting in multi-million dollar worker’s compensation claims. The company was aware of issues such as tailgating and distracted driving, but lacked the means to prove it. Therefore, SUI sought a solution that would provide an unbiased source of truth about what was happening in the cab when technicians were out on the road.

Summit Materials: Leveraging IoT for Enhanced Safety and Sustainability

Samsara

Summit Materials, a leading integrated construction materials solution provider, faced challenges in achieving their Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) goals due to decentralized solutions for telematics, safety, and site visibility. This decentralization led to gaps in their data and reporting, hindering their progress towards their ambitious safety and sustainability goals. The company's vast operations, spanning 22 U.S. states and British Columbia, Canada, made it difficult to track progress against their goals. They needed a technology partner that could consolidate their over-the-road fleet safety, emissions, and fuel consumption data into a single platform, improving visibility across their distributed operations.

Enhancing Operational Efficiency and Security with IoT: A Case Study on Teichert

Samsara

Teichert, a California-based construction and materials producer company, faced significant challenges due to limited visibility across its vast operations. With over 30 locations, hundreds of vehicles, and thousands of employees, real-time visibility into their entire operations was critical. The company was heavily reliant on its assets and materials for its work, making it essential to ensure adequate resources were available and located where needed. The company was also grappling with ongoing thefts, which necessitated an easy-to-use camera solution to help them quickly investigate, resolve, and prevent future thefts. The lack of an efficient system led to countless hours spent reviewing video footage, which was both time-consuming and inefficient.

U.S. Logistics Solutions Empowers Drivers with Mobile-First Technology, Saving Time and Money

Samsara

U.S. Logistics Solutions, a final-mile logistics company, was facing significant challenges due to their use of several disconnected, legacy systems. These systems were inefficient, provided limited visibility into their operations, and lacked customizability for their workforce. The company's processes were largely manual and relied on paper logs and reports, which were error-prone and time-consuming. Lack of visibility from the cab to their warehouses posed another challenge. Without insight into how their drivers were performing or what was happening in their terminals, training opportunities for their team were limited. The company needed an advanced solution to improve their productivity, safety, and employees’ experience.

Transforming Driver Workflows: A Case Study on UniGroup and Samsara

Samsara

UniGroup, a $1.5 billion transportation cooperative, faced a unique challenge due to its complex organizational model. The cooperative, which handles one-third of all professional moves in the United States, is owned by over 160 member agencies. This structure necessitates that their drivers switch between multiple operating authorities (MOAs), complicating the tracking of miles and hours of service (HOS). The need to streamline HOS management and maintain compliance with federal regulations was paramount. However, the solution had to be easy to install and capable of innovating alongside UniGroup's evolving needs.

Van der Linden Enhances Driver Safety and Avoids Fines with Samsara

Samsara

Van der Linden, a 125-year-old road transportation company based in the Netherlands, was facing a significant challenge due to outdated systems. The company, which specializes in dedicated delivery services, was struggling to monitor driver hours and maintain compliance with EU rules. In the Netherlands, if a driver is fined for driving too many hours without observing the mandatory rest periods, the employer is required to pay a fine double that amount. With the minimum fine for drivers set at €220, Van der Linden was at risk of incurring substantial costs from non-compliance across its growing fleet. The company's traditional method of drivers clocking in with timecards and manually reporting monthly truck data was proving to be inefficient and error-prone.
