Carmel Street Department: Using data to back up operational decision-making

“Our mayor and our city council […] they are very big on numbers, proving the things that we are doing. And Geotab has just gone above and beyond helping us to be able to collect that data to show them that this is the reason why we are doing this.”

    -   Jason Armes, Street Supervisor, Carmel Street Department

The City of Carmel, Indiana needed a way to improve fleet safety, operational compliance and keep their fleet’s emissions to a minimum. Geotab partnered with Argos Connected Solutions to help them track the activities and emissions of their vehicles and street sweepers, as well as roll out a biodiesel fuel pilot program. With custom dashboard reports, Carmel Street Department used the data to show a decrease in emissions from diesel to B20 fuel, with an eventual goal of 14-16% emissions reductions. Their street department is additionally able to monitor vehicle speeds, seat belt usage and harsh driving events using our solution, enabling them to uphold a safety-first culture in their fleet operations.

By harnessing the power of our technology, Carmel Street Department is leading by example in making sustainable, safe fleet operations a reality.
