It doesn\u2019t take long to realize that video games create their own set of super achievers, helping them develop new instincts and new knowledge that keep them engaged, sometimes beyond reason.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">What is it about video games that can keep people so singularly focused, and as a someone in the commercial transportation world, why should you care?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Because gamification is changing commercial driving, but not necessarily in the way you think.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Gamification seems like a buzzword destined to lose its luster, but it is, in fact, permeating every aspect of life, from how you maintain fitness to how you shop. And over the past decade, it\u2019s changed nearly half of corporate processes, from HR to accounting, according to Gartner Research.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">There\u2019s science behind the techniques video games use to hook and keep their audience\u2019s attention, such as delivering real time feedback on performance, offering ways to beat high scores to validate improving skills, and offering a constant source of discovery, among others. Think, for example, about the badges you get from \u201cleveling up\u201d on your FitBit or by posting reviews on TripAdvisor or Yelp. While they keep you engaged, even more impressive is how some of these techniques improve the ability to learn.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">A <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.capterra.com\/gamification-and-elearning\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-internal=\"false\">2013 study at the University of Colorado Denver Business School<\/a> revealed that gamification in e-learning delivered significant results:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify\">\n<li>14% increase in skills-based knowledge<\/li>\n<li>15% increase in factual knowledge<\/li>\n<li>9% increase in learning retention<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">You may already be using gamification in your driver training and in ongoing coaching to keep skills sharp, but the principles of gamification may be most needed as automated technology in the cab increases.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Automated technology is evolving from assisted braking and steering now to what\u2019s anticipated in the future, with near-autopilot-like technology. A driver \u2013 or operator &#8212; will need to develop new skills to fight off boredom over long stretches of inactivity while remaining prepared to assume control of the vehicle in the wink of an eye when the unpredictable happens.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">While these new skills will greatly influence hiring criteria and driver training, gamification in the cab may be able to help. One simple example might be to have a driver earn points for pressing a button that lights up randomly throughout the journey, indicating that they\u2019re still engaged in the operation of the vehicle.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Truck manufacturers have already begun to engage with human factors experts to guide them through the best way to design a cab to incorporate elements that optimize the vehicle operator, and as that occurs, the definition of safe driving will evolve. And making sure your fleet drivers\u2019 behavior is tracking with those changes will be critical to your business.<\/p>\n<div class=\"field field-name-body\">\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lytx.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.lytx.com<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center\">FLEET MANAGEMENT AUDIT<\/h3>\n<p>Fleet management is the use of a set of vehicles in order to provide services to a third-party, or to perform a task for our organization, in the most efficient and productive manner with a determined level of service and cost.<\/p>\n<p>Fleet management activities are shown in the following graph 1:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1106 size-full\" title=\"fleet management activities\" src=\"http:\/\/en.advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/grafico-AFMC-en.jpg\" alt=\"fleet management activities\" width=\"1600\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/06\/grafico-AFMC-en.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/06\/grafico-AFMC-en-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/06\/grafico-AFMC-en-1024x512.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Graph 1: fleet management activities<\/p>\n<p>The proposal audit analyses and assesses all fleet management activities shown in the graph 1, and its main goals are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Know the overall status of the fleet management activities<\/li>\n<li>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 management\u00a0 activities<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>With the information obtained, we\u2019ll elaborate a report that holds the overall status of the fleet management as well as the suggestions, recommendations and the measures to take in order to cut costs and optimize the fleet management activities.<\/p>\n<p>CLICK ON THE FOLLOWING LINK TO DOWNLOAD THE PROPOSED FLEET MANAGEMENT AUDIT:<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/en.advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Fleet-Management-Audit-AFMC.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fleet Management Audit AFMC<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>Contact:<\/p>\n<p>Jos\u00e9 Miguel Fern\u00e1ndez G\u00f3mez<\/p>\n<p>34 678254874<\/p>\n<p>info@advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How Gamification Optimizes Driving &amp; Vehicle Performance Maybe you\u2019ve accepted your kid\u2019s challenge to play Madden or FIFA 15, and lived to regret it.
