With the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning, large amounts of data are processed and contextualized to create a better understanding of driver behavior in any fleet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">The AI software requires little to no human intervention and can process large amounts of data to provide the context and insights that fleet managers need to make better business decisions, reduce costs, improve driver safety, and run their operation more efficiently.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">SmartWitness VP Aaron Kim said: \u201cFleet managers are currently facing a significant data overload. With the myriad number of connected devices on trucks plus the various compliance, regulatory and business intelligence software, there is simply too much data to be processed by organizations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">SmartAnalytics boils down thousands of hours of drive data each week into reports and league tables, which can be quickly and easily read. Only relevant videos are shared with fleet managers to act upon.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">As well as cutting down hours of manual checking of data, the AI algorithm reduces false positives via improved contextual analysis. For example, if a driver triggered a harsh acceleration event, that would show up as negative feedback for their behavior. But in the case this event was triggered by entering a freeway, this behavior should actually be considered \u201csafe\u201d as a necessary maneuver to enter the flow of faster-moving traffic. This is the value of an increased number of contextual data sources, and unlike traditional telematics software that just use two key data sources, G-sensor and GPS, Smart Analytics is able to take into account factors such as road type, elevation, weather conditions, traffic patterns, and differentiate between city and rural traffic density.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>How the SmartAnalytics Data Filtering Funnel Works<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><em>Data<\/em> \u2013 G-sensor, GPS are the start points just as with standard telematics, but SmartAnalytics also includes weather conditions, traffic patterns and density, road type, and elevation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><em>The AI Filter<\/em> \u2013 scrubs, cleans, and filters the raw data and eliminates false positives by analyzing and comparing with our sources.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><em>The Machine Learning Filter <\/em>\u2013 identifies trends and patterns in driver behavior, compares risk across your fleet, and creates league tables. Over time, with the comparison of historical information, the identification of events becomes even more accurate and predictive risk modelling assigns priority around the most at-risk drivers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><em>Relevant Actionable Data<\/em> &#8211; The delivery of concise and easy to digest league tables becomes the first stage at which a fleet manager becomes involved. At this point in the funnel, they are receiving relevant actionable insights that can then be used to help train drivers and identify risk factors in the business. And because this is all done using artificial intelligence that is completely objective, the results are consistent every time and delivered instantly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">In 2020, SmartAnalytics deployment \u2014 which was initially on 10,000 drivers but in Q3 rose to 25,000 \u2014 reduced accidents by 15%, improved productivity by 30%, reduced fuel and maintenance costs by 7%, improved compliance involvement by 50%, and improved accountability by 20%. In addition, driving behavior scores rose 14%, workplace satisfaction rose 15%, and workplace engagement rose 25%.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"posted-by\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.government-fleet.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.government-fleet.com<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/consultancy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>CUT COTS OF THE FLEET WITH OUR AUDIT PROGRAM<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/consultancy\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5377\" src=\"https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/04\/nueva-ley-auditoria.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 858px) 100vw, 858px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/04\/nueva-ley-auditoria.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/04\/nueva-ley-auditoria-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/04\/nueva-ley-auditoria-1024x682.jpg 1024w\" alt=\"\" width=\"858\" height=\"572\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The audit is a key tool to know the overall status and provide the analysis, the assessment, the advice, the suggestions and the actions to take in order to cut costs and increase the efficiency and efficacy of the fleet.
