The service industry consumes millions of gallons of fuel and expends trillions of pounds of carbon monoxide in our environment each year as trucks roll to installation and service locations around the globe. Finding ways to reduce truck rolls by eliminating unnecessary travel is a proactive way for service companies to play a role in protecting the environment and to meet federal environmental initiatives and guidelines.
The research and development required to create a methodology that captures these objectives and which can decrease the cost associated with multiple truck rolls is, in most cases, beyond the abilities of small-to-medium sized businesses (SMBs).
However, in an effort to meet the growing environmental concerns and to provide the service industry with a process that can be implemented in nearly every niche, Concert Technologies developed and releases to all companies sharing its concerns for environmental protection and cost savings a methodology to reduce fuel consumption and carbon monoxide emissions by nearly 70%.
In an interview, Executive Vice President, Tom Suder, discusses the U.S. Department of Transportation’s statistics on fuel and emissions and how the telecom industry in particular is mismanaging service/installation rollouts and wasting valuable resources. He provides a solution through the simple method of reducing truck rolls and unnecessary transportation while accelerating deployment speed and saving money.
Suder’s insight into the methods the industry is currently using to deploy and maintain technology as well as the flexibility that IP-based technology offers the telecom industry in general clarifies the problems. Concert Technologies’ creative means to manage the environmental and cost issues associated with service company rollouts is generously provided to any service company as a viable solution.
