HDT Truck Fleet Innovator Nomination Form

Each year, HDT honors a handful of the industry's most innovative truck fleet leaders with its HDT Truck Fleet Innovator Awards. Winners are profiled in the March issue of HDT, honored during a special event in conjunction with the Mid-America Trucking Show, and become a valued resource for HDT's editors throughout the year.

Innovators are judged on areas such as technological advancement in safety, equipment and maintenance, leadership in business practices or driver programs and/or implementing programs to help the environment.

Past HDT Truck Fleet Innovators have included well-known names such as Don Schneider, Russ Gerdin, Dan England, Don Osterberg, Kevin Knight, Max Fuller and Pat Quinn, as well as lesser-known fleet executives.

In addition to nominations submitted by HDT's editorial staff, nominations will be accepted from fleets, drivers, suppliers, dealers or associations. HDT editors will select the 2013 Fleet Innovators from nominations received before December 1, 2012.
