Spireon’s submission for the 2015 TU-Automotive Awards centers on some of the company’s most-notable achievements during the preceding year:

Eclipsing the 2 million active subscriber milestone, making Spireon one of the largest independent telematics providers in the country.

Launching its next generation Fleet & Asset Intelligence (FAI) information platform, which includes the industry’s first automated detention optimization system to help fleet owners see where trailers are located, how long those trailers have been detained at specific locations, whether they are empty or loaded, which customer locations have exceeded their detention grace periods, as well as daily views of billable detention hours.

Acquiring as customers of Spireon’s industry-leading FleetLocate trailer tracking solution two of the largest transportation and logistics providers in the United States: Swift Transportation Company and Werner Enterprises.

Spireon’s partnership with one of the largest purchasing organizations in the United States, National Purchasing Partners, to provide local and state government agencies with time- and money-saving access to FleetLocate products and services without a bid process.

Continued success of Spireon’s co-branded FleetLocate Joe Gibbs Driver Performance Program, the industry’s only game-based driver performance program, designed to improve driver behavior through positive reinforcement, recognition, and contest-based incentives—specifically, helping one customer achieve 15 percent reductions in both fuel purchasing and greenhouse gas emissions.

According to a TU-Automotive announcement, finalists were chosen by a panel of industry expert judges from more than 400 nominations across 12 categories. Winners will be announced on June 2nd at the Hyatt Place Hotel in Novi, Michigan, the day before the annual TU-Automotive Detroit conference and exhibition.
