Iron Mountain Sees Fleet Wide Improvement

At the end of 2008 the company set out to significantly improve their driving culture by focusing on four main goals: • Reduce overall risk • Reduce the number of safety incidents • Reduce costs • Fulfill their legal duty under Health & Safety legislation Iron Mountain embarked on a comprehensive risk assessment program for all commercial vehicle drivers, which reduced reported incidents by 71% and cut the cost of claims by 43% in just two years. To further this effort Iron Mountain partnered with its insurance provider, Zurich, to acquire and deploy GreenRoad across its entire fleet to help reduce insurance premiums by improving driver behavior and reducing overall risk exposure.

After a wide search, Iron Mountain selected GreenRoad. The fleet performance management solution allowed Iron Mountain to roll out the initiative quickly and allowed Iron Mountain to deploy the driver behavior system across all of their vehicles for full fleet visibility. GreenRoad’s solution alerts drivers when they depart from safe, smooth driving style, enabling them to immediately modify their driving behavior and encouraging them to take charge of their own improvement and take pride in their achievements. In effect they have a ‘vocal coach’ in the cab.
