PeopleNet has launched the MPG Guarantee Program to help fleets improve miles-per-gallon fuel performance. The new offering is backed with a money-back guarantee.

The goal of the MPG Guarantee Program is to increase fleet mpg by from 5% to 10%. PeopleNet guarantees the mpg benefit will exceed cost of the program within one year, or all fees will be refunded. The program involves a year-long collaboration, during which PeopleNet Professional Services will audit customer practices, then develop and implement a plan.

This program includes six distinct phases that begin with an in-depth analysis of fuel purchasing, maintenance, driver habits, operating efficiency, and equipment specs. It goes on to establish measurement benchmarks and a custom, fleet-specific plan to improve mpg.

The program also includes training for in-company trainers to carry the program forward and a long-term plan to make sure mpg benefits are maintained well beyond that first year.
