When you’re a 4,000+ driver fleet dedicated to providing excellent supply chain solutions to your customers, rising accidents and the liability that comes along with them can have nuclear repercussions. In 2019, one fleet knew they needed to invest in a better professional development program for their drivers to get out in front of their risk.

Despite their diligent efforts, they discovered holes in their program. Tracking development plans for over 200 drivers per month within spreadsheets and Excel became increasingly difficult.
