PHH GreenFleet to Leverage Telematics Data to Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions

ARTICLE TOOLS        | E-MailPrint

SPARKS, MD – PHH Arval, a subsidiary of PHH Corporation, is bringing the power of telematics to PHH GreenFleet to deliver results in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The PHH GreenFleet program has helped fleets reduce emissions by an average of 14 percent, the company said.

The newest innovation of the program is to use data from PHH Onboard, PHH’s telematics-powered service, to help companies further drive down their emissions. Using data captured from the telematics device in each vehicle, PHH GreenFleet has the ability to monitor and impact driver behavior, such as speeding, idling, and unauthorized use, and monitor engine performance to make sure the vehicle is operating efficiently.

Based on results being achieved by PHH Arval clients who utilize the telematics-powered service, PHH Onboard has the potential to reduce fuel costs by up to 10 percent, idling time by up to 25 percent, and unauthorized use by up to 100 percent. In addition to the environmental benefits of using less fuel, it also has a positive impact on operating costs.

Fleet Becomes an Epicenter for Interdepartmental Encroachment

By Mike Antich
Interdepartmental conflicts are common in the medical and IT industries, and at most companies between sales and operations. However, for many years, fleet existed as a realm of its own. Management in other departments often didn’t fully understand the nuances of fleet management other than they got a new vehicle every 36 months. Fleet managers of that era (not that long ago) were the “kings” and “queens” of their own realms. However, that reality is rapidly changing.

Strategic Fleet Management Focuses on Management by Objective

By Mike Antich
The greatest challenge facing the future of fleet management is how we see ourselves as a profession. Are we administrators of a fleet or are we managers? Do we manage from a tactical level – putting out day-to-day fires – or from a strategic level focusing on specific long-term objectives using metrics to benchmark progress? In the future, you will need a strategic focus to succeed in fleet management; otherwise you run the risk of fading into irrelevancy.
