Abstract: Abstract Rising fuel expenses are the driver for investments in fuel-saving technologies – even for an SME. Sieber – a Logistics Service Provider – uses telematics solutions in order to reduce the fuel consumption of its truck fleet by monitoring the driving style of its staff. The company engages the collaboration of the drivers in the improvement process. As the drivers were truly convinced of the programme, this project resulted in a nearly competitive contest of the drivers to be the driver with the fewest wearout and lowest fuel consumption.
