Case Studies
Automotive Technology Company ("Auto Tech")
Background
Positioning Universal joined forces with AutoTech to support a nationwide initiative aimed at assisting a leading ride-sharing company in expanding its pool of drivers in key U.S. markets. This expansion strategy involved offering leased vehicles to individuals with lower credit scores.
Solution
In this partnership, we provided a comprehensive SI solution encompassing the following services:
- Developed GPS devices tailored specifically for this unique use case.
- Engaged with four different companies to provide installation services in various markets.
- Collaborated with AutoTech to create custom APIs for retrieving mileage and battery health data by VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) and receiving real-time vehicle status data.
- Implemented an API to furnish location data by VIN to a third-party software solution, streamlining the repossession of vehicles.
- Updated PUI’s national impound database, with a specific focus on AutoTech’s commercial launch markets.
- Designed custom impound alerts to proactively notify AutoTech and its partners whenever a vehicle entered and exited an impound lot.
- Generated customized automated reports which included a daily list of vehicles installed with GPS devices by location.
Results
Throughout the initial 9-month commercial launch period, AutoTech’s ride-sharing partner successfully onboarded thousands of new drivers. This accomplishment was made possible by PUI, and its installation partners, installing GPS devices in over 18,000 vehicles, averaging approximately 500 installations per week. The utilization of API data also enabled AutoTech’s partner to recover more than 1,000 vehicles that had been towed to impound lots or repossessed due to non-payment.
Construction Contractor
Background
PUI teamed with a leading construction contractor for a fleet safety and operational efficiency initiative aimed at developing and enforcing their driver safety program as well as delivering actionable vehicle use data to the company’s leadership.
Solution
In this partnership, we provided a comprehensive SI solution encompassing the following services:
- Provided GPS devices and AI-powered dashcams designed specifically for this use case.
- Contracted with two installation companies to provide installation services across the company’s area of operation.
- Hired installation and support assets to locally support the ongoing installation and service requirements for the company.
- Customized dashcams to provide in-cabin alerts for safety concerns defined by the customer.
- Provided a method to obtain video clips if a vehicle is involved in an incident, allowing management to quickly act on insurance claims.
- Developed and launched multi-camera capabilities on the platform, allowing for up to 5 cameras to be installed on customer assets.
- Created custom reports to assist fleet management with monthly reconciliation and maintenance requirements.
Results
Positioning Universal delivered notable benefits to enhance the construction contractor’s fleet management and safety efforts. Our customer now captures video footage in the event of any off-site or on-site accidents which has helped them develop improved driving training programs to reduce the likelihood of costly accidents. Additionally, the SI program has improved their ability to reinforce essential safety program components, such as seatbelt usage and restricted mobile phone use while driving. Finally, the program has streamlined data collection efforts by consolidating all usage data for the fleet into a single, customized report. This consolidated report has simplified the monthly reconciliation process for their fleet managers, enhancing data-driven decision-making to improve their operations and safety performance.
