They can\u2019t fix leaks. It\u2019s an incredibly important you know, we have new construction, So that\u2019s getting pipes in the ground, we have repairs, we have damage control. So we have so many people that rely on the vehicles.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>What type of vehicles and assets make up your fleet?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWe\u2019ve got a little bit of everything. Well, first of all, we have diesel, CNG, normal fuel. We have vans, pickups, crew trucks, box trucks. We have literally everything, dump trucks. And then our assets are trailers and excavators and forklifts.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are some of the challenges of running a fleet in your industry?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cTechnicians using the system, you know. I think the system for us is the key, gives us all the data we need, allows us to do some, some analysis and be proactive and not so reactive, but I think it all starts with good data, good system, tight system.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>How has FleetWave helped overcome the challenges you were experiencing?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWe are capturing a ton of data, that much is that\u2019s clear. But I think one of the things that FleetWave has done, because any system can just collect, but I think the analysis tools, the dashboards, we\u2019re using those every day and at all levels.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>What features do you use most in FleetWave?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cThe reporting, the dashboards and I think the workflows, we\u2019re getting stronger with that, you know, getting some good help from, from our consultant. But yeah, we\u2019re trying to tighten the system down a little bit and FleetWave just makes that so easy.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why would you recommend Chevin?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cI\u2019ve just found them totally responsive to everything that we\u2019ve asked for.
