Problem & Solution
Sibley Transportation is a century-old carrier with more freight than its fleet could cover because trailers went dark for days and units sat idle in yards. They needed to get eyes on every unit to understand their true utilization.
FleetPulse went on every trailer, and the fleet was connected in weeks. The operating change was small: weekly dwell report, yard checks, and utilization reports.
With FleetPulse, they increased their monthly trailer fleet utilization by 17 percentage points - $88,700 in additional annual revenue.
Who's it for
Utilization is the fastest lever you have on fleet economics - improve it, and you release capital instead of tying it up. Every idle trailer still costs thousands a year in maintenance and insurance, whether it's earning revenue or not. FleetPulse identifies exactly which trailers they are, so capital allocation decisions are based on data rather than guesswork.
Mid-sized fleet with 630 trailers, no additional units purchased.
A hosted platform with role-based access, and one documented API that replaces the exports and portal logins your team currently maintains. Nothing to stand up internally, no cellular contracts to administer, no professional-services engagement to get data into the warehouse.
Logins retired at one fleet, without replacing a device.
Brake faults, lamp outages and tire pressure are the citations that put a unit out of service. FleetPulse surfaces them while the trailer is still in the yard, with a per-VIN record of when the fault appeared and when it was cleared.
Accuracy of ABS fault codes, verified with largest beverage distributor in the United States
ABS codes, tire pressure, wheel-end temperature, and light-out issues arrive as work orders — early enough to schedule the repair instead of dispatching a road call.
Per tire, with 5+ hours of downtime, for a 1,000-trailer fleet.
Every yard on one screen, dwell ranked, loaded versus unloaded, visible before dispatch commits a load. The weekly operating number stops being a spreadsheet somebody rebuilds every Friday and starts being a report that sends itself.
Growth in revenue per trailer per month. Same fleet.
Utilization by trailer, yard, region, and customer — ranked, trended, and defensible. Find the dead capacity you already own before the next buy cycle.
