Driver Performance Management

The way your vehicles are driven has a big impact on fuel economy. While driver behavior would seem to be one of the factors most under our control, the reality is that it is hard to change people’s habits. Research and our customers all report that the only way to obtain long‐term driver behavior change is through training, ongoing monitoring, and feedback. Quadrant and other telematics solutions make it possible to set up score cards using factors such as:

• Idling
• Speeding
• Fast accelerations
• Harsh braking

Obtaining maximum fuel economy requires smooth and consistent driving. Drivers often speed down hills thinking it will speed them up the hill on the other side. It takes consistent training and feedback to demonstrate that this is a counterproductive strategy for improving fuel economy. Keeping a steady speed and appropriate gearing will generate the best fuel economy.

To monitor how your vehicles are driven, Quadrant provides many comprehensive reports with accurate vehicle location and usage information. Vehicle scorecards provide speeding, unsafe maneuvering, and hard braking counts to help you assess which drivers are driving unsafely, allowing you to take steps to improve their driving.
