Telematics and production

[pretzel_man]

This guy also said something else interesting. He said our district was the only one 100% on telematics and UPS wasn't going to release any more money for it until they evaluated how it went with us.

In 2009, Telematics is being deployed to one center in each district. Its also being deployed to one complete district. (South New Englad I think)

How well 2009 goes will determaine dployment in 2010 and beyond.

Put the truck in neutral,kill the engine and push it backwards!Pay a kid 2 bucks to run around wildly with your diad then enter a sales lead.

Telematics is about reducing liability and increasing production, period.

I really can't wait till we get it, because you know as soon as they install it the SPORH will drop and the over/under will jump up for all drivers.

This is not necessarily true.

As an automotive Supervisor the benefits of Telematics is going to be great. It will allow us the ability to know what issues a car is having and in some cases the required fix while it is still in service, this in turn will help to keep a driver in his assigned car. My involvement with Telematics is not that extensive yet, but from what I understood, the number one concern with the drivers was going to be safety. Seatbelt use being the biggest concern along with bulkhead doors, now the interpretation that Operations may have of the system I am sure will be production. To me it seems if you are doing the job as required you should not have anything to worry about correct?

I didn't realize the black hole UPS was pouring their money into was in Automotive. Time to buy stock now, that leak is apparently plugged !!!!

Some are better at it then others. The worse ones will be cut off like the ends of a stick of pepperoni. You can't have that on a corporate cracker platter !

Wrote up a car for slipping clutch. Next day the car was back on the line DVIR said OK TO RUN. That day clutch went out on area. If they won't fix it when I fill out my DVIR why should I think they will fix it when a computer screen tells them to. Talked to a mechanic the other day he said "Because volume is down we can RED TAG cars for more problems than before". Now I just ad exhaust leaking into cab and they have to pull the car.
