Trimble awarded Fleet Management Technologies Contract with the National Joint Powers Alliance!

I was excited to hear that Trimble was recently awarded a contract for a full line of services, equipment, software, accessories and supplies by the National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA). As I understand it the NJPA is a “Co-op” that provides it members with enhanced purchasing power for programs, services and products commonly used by local governments, educational and non profit agencies in the USA. In other words they take advantage of the national volume pricing that can be achieved through its membership, and they perform this function utilizing guidelines and procedures that satisfy the bidding requirements of most states. There are over 28000 (and growing) NJPA members, and best of all, it is free to join the NJPA for qualified agencies.

This news is exciting to me because it quickens the process that local governments, highway districts and non profits use for evaluating the implementation of Fleet Management. In many of our meetings with these types of organizations, the response is an overwhelming yes to the need for an integrated GPS Fleet Management System. They recognize that this system provides the necessary information and reports to implement strategies to reduce, fuel usage, reduce overtime costs, report carbon emission savings, and monitor and reward safe operation of government or agency owned vehicles. In fact according to independent research from Aberdeen Group, organizations that implemented a GPS Fleet Management System reduced fuel cost by 22%! (How much is that for your organization?)
