Fleet Optimization & Right Sizing

Instantaneous utilization analysis, every day of the year.

Having the right vehicles to support your drivers is the highest priority. Our duty-cycle analytics software has revolutionized the ability for fleet managers to assess their vehicle utilization on an as-needed basis, quickly and accurately, any day of the year. Our EV fleet optimization software, shiftED, gives fleet managers the real-time insight into current and historical utilization needed to make procurement and assignment decisions in the moment.

The traditional utilization analysis relies on numerous assumptions using annual mileage data and extensive surveying of drivers and managers. This process is costly, time-consuming, and introduces inaccuracies that reduce confidence in fleet optimization insights.

Our shiftED software uses your minute-by-minute driving and operational data to provide a clear picture of exactly when each of your vehicles is away from its home location. A parked vehicle does not indicate availability - location matters. If a vehicle is parked even just a mile away, your other drivers cannot access it. This is why the operational data is invaluable for accurately understanding fleet utilization. Relying on annual miles undervalues your assets and can leave your drivers without a vehicle to do their job.

shiftED allows you to visualize every possible scenario of asset retirement and predicts the impact with a simple click.  This allows you to plan for the impact of removing vehicles from the fleet. Reduce vehicles, reduce conflicts, maintain productivity.

Not only can shiftED help you determine the right number of vehicles for your operations, you can also use it to determine if you have the right vehicle types. How often are your drivers traveling off-road? How much time are they driving in traction-impaired weather conditions? These are just a few of the questions that shiftED can help you answer to improve your EV fleet optimization.

Right-size and optimize your fleet with absolute confidence.
