What if the technology your drivers fear most could become their biggest advocate?

This is the shift that Candice Morley, our Director of Client Products, explores in her new Business Fleet article: https://hubs.la/Q04hWqc10.

It’s a conversation every fleet manager should consider having.

Drivers don’t dislike technology itself. What they dislike is feeling watched without support. The key difference is how telematics is introduced and used.

Candice’s article shares that predictive telematics:
✅ Gives drivers objective data to validate their own performance.
✅ Flags vehicle issues before they turn into roadside emergencies.
✅ Creates a fair, consistent foundation for recognition, not just correction.
✅ Builds a coaching culture that drivers actually want to be part of.

Gallup estimates that U.S. businesses lose roughly $1 trillion each year to voluntary turnover. For fleets, the stakes are even higher because skilled drivers hold valuable knowledge and customer relationships that are hard to replace.

The fleets that get this right aren't just reducing turnover. They're building a reputation as employers of choice.

Read Candice's full article to see how predictive telematics can make that shift happen for your fleet.

Predictive telematics can help small fleets improve driver satisfaction, reduce turnover, and build a stronger safety culture through smarter coaching.

Did you know your everyday driving habits could be quietly draining your gas tank — and your wallet?

With gas prices well above $4 a gallon, WCPO’s Don’t Waste your Money team turned to our own Candice Morley, Director of Client Products at Mike Albert, to share what fleet management professionals already know: small behavior changes behind the wheel can reduce fuel costs by 10–30%.

At Mike Albert, this isn't just advice. It's what we do every day. Fleet managers use telematics technology and driver coaching tools to track and reduce exactly these behaviors in real time: harsh acceleration, hard braking, excessive idling, and improper tire pressure. We share that expertise with the businesses we serve — and now, Candice brought that same knowledge to everyday drivers.
Candice joined the WCPO consumer team for a real-world driving demonstration to put these tips to the test — and the results speak for themselves.

Key takeaways from the segment:
✅ Accelerate gently — no jackrabbit starts
✅ Maintain safe following distance to avoid hard braking
✅ Turn off your engine if idling more than one minute
✅ Check and maintain proper tire pressure

The calendar for vehicle ordering has officially moved to a month-by-month "staggered" schedule. For fleet managers, this means the traditional annual ordering window is a thing of the past. Missing a specific model’s window now could mean extended downtime for your drivers and higher TCO for your fleet.

As fleets hold vehicles longer, uptime has to be engineered, not hoped for.

With replacement cycles stretching, today’s trucks need to perform reliably for more years and more miles. That makes spec’ing and upfitting decisions more critical than ever.

Alexa Rubin, manager, truck upfit on our team at Mike Albert Fleet Solutions, shares some insights in this new Fleet Maintenance article and reinforces a truth we see every day when it comes to upfitting: many downtime and maintenance challenges are baked in early, through material choices, integration, weight distribution and service access. Use spec process to address those from the jump, and maintenance becomes more predictable. Get them wrong, and fleets pay for it over the life of vehicles.

If uptime is a priority as you plan for longer lifecycles, this is a perspective worth considering.
