In post 2008 America it is harder that ever to make aBUSINESS go, but especially for today’s trucking fleets the challenges never seem to stop coming. From increased truck costs, sky high fuel prices, driver shortages, shorter driver service hours, to increasing government regulation it has never been more important to operate your fleet as efficient as possible.
We are committed to providing today’s fleet manager with the tools to be successful. This is exactly what the mission of The Trincon Group is. They have put together a very special report outlining the 7 best practices to improve trucking operational effectiveness. The 7 areas covered are Safety, Drivers, Service, Sales and Marketing, Equipment, Technology, and Operating Stats. Key metrics to track your effectiveness in these areas are also suggested in detail in the report.
“The essentials to running a good trucking company rely on management’s attitude toward safety, drivers, and employees. The operating focus needs to be on getting the most out of their drivers and equipment, while providing excellent service. Knowing your costs and using your operating data, allows a carrier to make the best use of pricing strategies that will provide an adequate return on investment.”, according to Trincon. With all the factors facing the fleet manager today, maintenance and repair shouldn’t be one of them.
