Introducing FleetPulse Utilization Report

Every dollar tied up in underutilized trailers is a dollar not earning you revenue. Yet most fleet managers lack a clear, intuitive way to answer critical questions: Do I have additional capacity to grow, or do I need to buy more assets? Where should I move assets between locations to capture revenue? Which teams or yards are underperforming?

Today, we’re excited to announce the launch of the FleetPulse Utilization Report — a powerful new module designed to help you understand your trailer fleet’s true performance and make data-driven decisions that improve profitability.

The Challenge: Fleet Visibility Without Actionable Insight

Fleet owners and operations managers have long struggled with a gap between having data and understanding what it means. Basic utilization dashboards show you idle versus active trailers, but they don’t answer the questions that matter:

  • Fleet Owners: Do I have the capacity to handle growth?
  • Operations Managers: Am I rotating my fleet effectively? Which trailers are sitting idle when they shouldn’t be?
  • Maintenance Directors: How many trailers are actually available to dispatch versus in the shop? 

Without these answers, fleets often make expensive mistakes — adding trailers they don’t need, paying maintenance costs on unused assets, or leaving money on the table because they can’t see where capacity exists.

The FleetPulse Utilization Report transforms raw data into clear, actionable insights. The new module gives you visibility into exactly how your trailers are performing — and where improvements can be made.

Key Features:

Real-Time Utilization Tracking: See exactly how many trailers moved each week or month with intuitive visualizations. Compare your performance against the FleetPulse average to benchmark how you’re doing relative to industry standards.

Flexible Filtering & Segmentation: Analyze utilization by groups, asset types, trailer length, or product type. Need to understand how one group is performing? Filter to see just those assets. Want to compare performance across divisions? Easy.

Drilldown Into Details: Go beyond the numbers. Click any data point to drill down into specific trailers, view dwell times, locations, and identify exactly which assets need attention.

Trending & Insights: See utilization trending over time with built-in moving averages. Visual indicators show whether your utilization is improving or declining — so you can course-correct quickly.

Export & Share: Export detailed dwell reports to share with your team, analyze trends over time, or build custom reports for leadership.

How It Works:

The Utilization module appears as a new tab in your FleetPulse dashboard. When you log in, you’ll see:

  • A graph showing moved trailers vs. idle trailers over your selected timeframe (weekly or monthly)
  • Your utilization percentage and how it’s trending
  • A comparison against FleetPulse’s average utilization across all customers
  • Filters to segment by group, asset type, length, or product type
  • A table view for detailed analysis
  • One-click access to see which specific trailers drove each data point

Real-World Impact

Companies using the FleetPulse Utilization Report are already seeing results. One carrier improved utilization by 17% and discovered they had excess capacity they didn’t know existed — enabling them to capture more revenue.

Why This Matters for Your Bottom Line

Utilization analytics directly impact profitability:

  • Smarter Purchasing Decisions: Know whether you truly need new equipment or can redeploy existing assets
  • Lower Maintenance Costs: Reduce idle time and the associated wear, storage, and maintenance expenses
  • Better Asset Allocation: Identify underperforming locations and reposition trailers to higher-demand areas
  • Team Accountability: Give operations and dispatch teams visibility into rotation efficiency
