Roswell, GA (PRWEB) December 8, 2010
Atlanta-based Discrete Wireless, Inc., (http://www. discretewireless. com), the value leader in GPS vehicle management and fleet tracking solutions, today announced its client, Landscape Concepts Management, Inc., recovered $400,000 worth of stolen vehicles and equipment with the MARCUS® Fleet Tracking solution. Besides enormous savings in asset recovery, it has also been able to win new business through its sustainability initiatives, including reduced fuel costs and carbon emissions.
Initially, Landscape Concepts Management was running through more than a thousand gallons of fuel on a daily basis. As a company concerned with its carbon footprint, it utilized the Idle Report available within the MARCUS Fleet Tracking solution to dramatically reduce fuel costs and emissions enterprise-wide.
George Markoutsas, Marketing Director for Landscape Concepts Management, said, “Because we could present a Sustainability Statement to potential clients in the bid process, we have won numerous contracts from municipal and commercial contracts that have to adhere to certain ordinances. We do our part to be a ‘green’ organization.”
Kevin Stone, Fleet Manager for Landscape Concepts Management, attributes the company’s increased productivity to the ability to create detailed geo-fencing of all of their accounts, enabling dispatchers to verify a driver’s location. Additionally, the MARCUS Fleet Tracking solution acts as a virtual timecard for 30 sub-fleets within the organization.
“MARCUS is a proven solution that provides our clients with rapid ROI and easy deployment,” said Mike Scarbrough, CEO of Discrete Wireless, Inc., “By enabling enterprise clients such as Landscape Concepts Management to easily manage and track its fleets; they gain a competitive advantage in the marketplace.”
