CMMS Case Studies

The average paper-based fleet takes 3.2 days to resolve a defect—not because the repair takes 3 days, but because the paper does. A driver writes up a brake issue at 5 AM. The form sits in the cab until end of...

This fleet was spending $1.86 million per year maintaining 95 commercial vehicles—and 42% of that budget was going to emergency repairs that cost 3-5x more than the same fix done proactively. Paper inspections...

This logistics company was losing $1.4 million per year to unplanned vehicle downtime—vehicle breaking down mid-route, missed delivery windows, emergency tow calls, and expedited repairs at premium rates....

When a January blizzard hit this municipality, 40% of their snow fleet had unresolved maintenance issues—discovered only when drivers tried to start their trucks. Eighteen-hour response times, emergency...

Heavy-haul carriers operate under a compliance microscope that standard fleets never face: state-by-state oversize permits, cargo securement checks every 150 miles, escort vehicle coordination, and bridge...

Fuel represented 24% of this fleet's total operating budget—$2.6 million per year across 110 mixed heavy vehicles including refuse trucks, vacuum tankers, flatbeds, and utility boom trucks. Each vehicle type...

Municipal fleets face a unique pressure: every roadside violation is a public record, every citation is taxpayer money, and every out-of-service order puts essential public services on hold. This 140-vehicle...

Tires are the second-largest maintenance expense for tipper and aggregate fleets—typically 10-15% of total operating cost—yet most fleets manage them reactively: replace when they blow, check pressure when...

This general contractor was spending 4,680 hours per year on equipment inspections across 14 jobsites—and most of that time wasn't spent actually inspecting. It was spent walking to the trailer for forms,...

The industry accepts 18,000 hours as the economic life of a mining excavator—the point where maintenance costs cross the replacement threshold. This surface mining operation refused to accept that number....

Most telematics vendors pitch ROI with hypotheticals. We collected actual numbers from 50 fleet operators running heavy equipment telematics across construction, mining, utility, and infrastructure—fleets...

Forklifts account for roughly 20,000 workplace injuries every year, and powered industrial truck violations consistently land in OSHA's top 10 most cited standards—with penalties exceeding $15 million in 2024...

When you operate 25 locations, you don't have one fleet—you have 25 fleets, each with its own inspection habits, its own compliance gaps, and its own definition of "good enough." This national fleet with 420...

Demolition is the most asset-intensive, high-wear segment of construction. Excavators fitted with hydraulic breakers, concrete crushers, pulverizers, and grapples cycle through punishment daily that would...

When a paver goes down mid-project, it doesn't go down alone. The plant stops. The rollers stop. The trucks with 20 tons of hot mix asphalt idling in line are now a clock ticking toward wasted material and...

Cranes are the most heavily regulated equipment in construction — and for good reason. A crane failure under load is not a near-miss. It is a fatality. OSHA's crane inspection standards under 29 CFR 1926...

In the oil and gas industry, a non-compliant vehicle is not just a regulatory problem — it is a contract-ending, operation-halting, fine-generating liability. With DOT and OSHA enforcement tightening year over...

Public transit agencies are under mounting pressure to decarbonize — and electric buses have become the centerpiece of that transformation. But deploying e-buses at scale introduces a complexity most transit...
