34 commercial carrier journal | june 2018 technology SmartDrive Driver Scorecard has video-based metrics S martDrive Systems announced the SmartDrive SmartIQ Driver Scorecard that combines video-based data with interactive analysis capability to provide fleets with a more com- plete view of driver performance in a flexible format that also is built to improve driver retention. Steve Mitgang, SmartDrive chief executive officer, said that with many fleets turning to safety-driven driver incentive programs, most do not have data based on real-time driving performance. Instead, many rely on summarized information or historical data, such as the absence of citations or collisions, that do not measure actual driving skills. "With the Driver Scorecard, SmartDrive enables fleets to pay for performance based on real-time driving data, delivering a powerful competitive advantage while also making the fleet safer and more profitable," he said. e scorecard brings key driver performance metrics across safety and operations into one dashboard. Fleet managers can view metrics that include safe driving, miles per gallon and miles driven to recognize and reward top-performing drivers. Mitgang said SmartDrive designed the scorecard to be cus- tomizable with more than 70 video-based driving performance observations. Also, managers can integrate data from other vehicle systems and combine it with the SmartDrive SmartIQ product family. e scorecard also can be tailored to the requirements of specific departments within a fleet, and by leveraging the SmartDrive Driver Application for mobile devices, drivers can have visibility into how their driving performance affects their standing in their company's incentive program. "e SmartIQ Driver Scorecard is an essential offering of the SmartIQ analytics solution for Driver Performance Manage- ment, which includes actionable data comparing new driver performance to that of tenured drivers, analysis of driver ef- ficiency in the context of trips and insight to risks contributing to collisions and near-collisions," Mitgang said. – Aaron Huff The SmartDrive SmartIQ Driver Scorecard brings key driver performance metrics across safety and operations into one dashboard.
