Sun Heating & Cooling finishes fleet-wide rollout of Discrete Wireless
MARCUS® 6 GPS Fleet Management System
Atlanta, GA - (February 7, 2005) - Atlanta-based Discrete Wireless, Inc. today announced that Bloomfield Hills, MI headquartered H.A. Sun Heating & Cooling, Inc., has completed a company-wide rollout of the Discrete Wireless MARCUS® 6 GPS Fleet Management System in the company’s 40+ fleet of service vehicles. Sun Heating & Cooling is an indoor weather solution industry leader in the metro area since 1982.
Henry Abrams, Secretary Treasure of H.A. Sun Heating & Cooling, Inc., commented, “It is amazing to me how dependent we have become on the MARCUS® 6 system with it only up and running for such a short time. The system was paying for itself the very first day. It was strange that for years, guys were turning in 8 hours a day every day and all of a sudden they are working 7 ½ and 6 ½ hour days. Multiply that times 41 guys at $30.00 to $60.00 per hour! The other thing that totally took me by surprise was the gas consumption went down drastically; that was a total bonus.”
Mr. Abrams continued, “Another great feature is looking for addresses and finding the closest technician in the area. This has been a very effective tool in our daily operations. These benefits are all gravy as we originally purchased the Discrete Wireless system to better schedule our men to satisfy our customers, and to dispatch more efficiently and productively. We got that and a whole lot more."
The new MARCUS® 6 GPS Fleet Management Application has the most comprehensive suite of features and tools in the industry. New components include point to point routing with driving directions, dispatch and messaging, automated report delivery and vehicle maintenance. Enhanced features include new mapping, a user-defined location radius, route playback, new reports and additional real-time alerts.
