PeopleNet Communications Inc., Chaska, Minn., announced that Calhoun Transportation Services, a subsidiary of Swift Enterprises Inc. in Cleveland, Tenn., has equipped its fleet with PeopleNet
's tracking and mobile communications system.
According to the PeopleNet announcement, Calhoun has already seen its cellphone bill, which was running $7,000 per month, reduced by more than half. The technology also allowed Swift to cancel plans to add an operations person to handle the dispatching for Calhoun's 110 units.
Swift conducted an intense regiment of training, education and communication for the Calhoun drivers. Swift brought more than 60 veteran operators that were already on the system to train the Calhoun drivers. Swift meets regularly with drivers to discuss issues and concerns and encourages them to visit his operations center to learn how to get the most out of the system.
