Velociti, a provider of technology deployment services, announced it has completed a technology rollout for Hirschbach Motor Lines. The project consisted of installing the EpicVue in-cab satellite TV package and the FlowBelow Tractor Aero Kit, which consists of aerodynamic wheel covers and tractor tandem fairings.
“Retaining experienced drivers and attracting new, qualified drivers, is extremely important for maintaining the high quality of Service Hirschbach strives to provide its customers,” said Brian Weiss, director of driver services for Hirschbach Motor Lines, a refrigerated carrier based in Sioux City, IA. “Our drivers spend most of their time out on the road or at truck stops and rest areas during required downtime. Our hope is to improve the quality of that time by providing them with the EpicVue in-cab satellite TV system.”
As a continuation of its Green Fleet Strategy, Hirschbach decided to have the FlowBelow Tractor Aero Kit installed. FlowBelow asserts their system will reduce fuel consumption over two percent at highway speeds.
“Hirschbach realized that having both systems installed quickly and accurately was crucial for maximizing the ROI of their investment,” said Deryk Powell, President of Velociti Inc. “Their drivers were excited about having EpicVue available to them and everyday the FlowBelow Aero Kit was not installed, they were losing money by not reaping the benefits. Our dedicated team was able to install both solutions, simultaneously, allowing them to realize their goals much more quickly.”
