Titled “Don’t Sit Idle While Fuel Costs Rise”, the paper shows the benefits of such technology including more efficient routing, reduced speeding and a decrease in excessive idling.

The paper also includes case studies of several operators, including the Eastern Municipal Water District (EMWD) of Riverside County, California, which reduced fuel costs by $79,000 (€54,900) in the first six months of using the Networkfleet GPS fleet management system.

'We initially focused on drivers’ habits such as speed and idle time that have a huge impact on fuel usage,' said Mark Iverson, EMWD maintenance director. 'However, we were also able to use the Networkfleet system to improve routing. By making more efficient use of our vehicles, we lowered the average number of miles driven per vehicle, further reducing our fuel expenses.'
