In beverage operations, drivers and equipment operators are striving to deliver product as efficiently and safely as possible, and are turning to solutions like telematics to realize those goals.
Toward the end of the last decade, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration recognized the need to boost adoption of advanced driver assistance systems and in 2020 launched the Tech-Celerate Now initiative to promote awareness and implementation of ADAS.
Lytx Inc., revealed its Weather Hazard Alerts. The artificial intelligence (AI)-powered geospatial technology is available to all Lytx clients as a project within the Lytx Lab tab in their accounts.
As operations work to maximize productivity at every turn, experts note that by integrating technology like telematics or operator assist solutions, facilities can reduce labor costs, while boosting productivity.
Video safety and telematics are becoming standard on many OEMs’ equipment offerings, and drivers have embraced this change as more are being rewarded for good driving behavior.
Changing distribution demands have spurred an increase in the number of vehicles needed for food and beverage distribution, which also is bolstering the demand for telematics solutions.
