No ordinary animal
Love the name: Gorilla Safety. Now comes an innovative new provider of software that fully automates all aspects of fleet and safety management, through its new mobile application and web-based dashboard.
Gorilla Safety’s revolutionary mobile app is the first and only cloud-based solution that integrates capabilities necessary for managing short- and long-haul vehicle fleets of any size from one platform. Fleet managers, office staff, drivers, mechanics and owner operators can use Gorilla Safety to enhance Department of Transportation SAFER scores, reduce insurance premiums, optimize efficiencies, improve productivity, control costs, increase profits and perhaps most importantly make today’s highways a safer place for all drivers. According to the Federal Motor Carriers Safety Administration, more than one-in-five trucks are put out of service for safety defects. Gorilla Safety was developed to address this staggering fact, and to help ensure highway safety by maximizing utilization of the features of its industry-changing technology. Gorilla Safety’s technology platform is easily accessed from iOS and Android smart phones and tablets as well as from a computer via a web-based dashboard. From the palm of one’s hand and with just a few clicks, Gorilla Safety users can perform a range of functions pertinent to the successful and safe management of large fleets, using advanced features that allow for:
Recording hours of service electronically through eLogs, Electronic Logging Devices (ELD) or Local Radius Platform
Managing of accidents through real-time reporting, real-time investigation and recounting of accident/data collection at the scene, with ability to upload photos and record [voice] testimony of incident
Performing of closed-loop inspections through automated Electronic Daily Vehicle Inspection Report (eDVIR), which integrates mechanic app in real-time (Gorilla Safety is the first company to bring this patented tool to market)
Tracking of fuel use and vehicle maintenance
Use of GPS to track fleet assets
Incorporation of an ELD self-certified compliant device that meets guidelines set forth by the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) ELD Mandate Scheduling
Development and storage of critical (paperless) documentation such as receipts, bills of lading, customized policies and procedures manuals, HR-required documents, training tools, etc., enabling app to be used as a proficient HR management tool for training/managing employees; and citing and storing violations (first company to feature this capability)
Sharing of information among permissible, granted users so everyone is on same platform, has access to same data at the same time and receives customized alerts and notifications to remain compliant and productive
Gorilla Safety is leading forward what is traditionally a cumbersome paper-laden process that has long been the standard in the trucking industry. Gorilla Safety’s solution directly addresses a void in the marketplace by placing all the functions for successfully managing fleets into one, easy-to-use and easy-to-access mobile app that improves productivity, increases profitability and lowers insurance claims and premiums. The singular goal of this company is to ensure all roads become safer for every motorist.
Gorilla Safety will combat the rising costs of insurance claims. It is the first technology available to the trucking industry with the potential to reduce claims and, in turn, lower insurance premiums by as much as 60%. Every day it takes for fleet managers to file claims causes total claim costs to rise by 3.9%. For example, if $100,000 in claims are submitted annually, that equates to $39,000 in claim reduction simply by having an automated first notice of loss. Most Gorilla Safety clients see an improvement of 3-5 days, on average, in this area by using the new app. This, coupled with an expected 15% improvement in total claims costs based on fraud avoidance, results in significant savings for any fleet operator.
Compliments for the innovation.
