When every crew is accounted for

Mission-critical utility fleets, dispatched with confidence

When the lights go out, your fleet is the response. Geotab gives dispatch a live picture of every crew.

  • Live visibility across your entire service territory
  • Faster storm and outage response with closest-crew dispatch
  • Safety and compliance accountability for crews
The MyGeotab all-in-one fleet platform

Storm-Ready

The territory, live, on one screen

Normal days run tighter and storm days run calmer when dispatch can see everything.

Closest-crew dispatch

Send the nearest qualified crew and shave minutes off restoration.

After-hours and call-out visibility

See who is already moving and who has not answered yet, with a timestamp on every call-out.

Fleet health for critical units

Bucket trucks and diggers ready when the call comes.

Crew safety accountability

Seatbelt, speeding, and harsh-event visibility that protects people.

What Changes

What your operation gets out of it

Critical trucks ready

Fault codes and hours-based reminders keep bucket trucks and diggers in service, not in the shop when the call comes.

Fewer at-risk drivers

Geotab's Collision Risk is the only predictive safety model running on 6M+ connected vehicles, and it flags at-risk drivers 20% more effectively than a scorecard alone (Geotab, 2026).

Our Advice

What we typically install for a utility fleet

Bucket trucks, diggers, and crew vehicles

GO9 or Next-Gen GO: territory map, faults, seatbelt and speed visibility. Plug it into the port, no installer visit.

Generators, light towers, and staged equipment

GO Anywhere battery trackers, three to five years per charge, no wiring.

Storm-duty and long-shift vehicles

GO Focus Plus AI cameras: in-cab fatigue alerts, and footage that exonerates the crew.

We configure the zones, alert rules, and storm-mode reports before you need them. The middle of an outage is the wrong time to build a dashboard.

The Real Problems

Three problems every utility ops manager owns

01
Storm accountability

Who responded, where, and when, on the record for the after-action review.

02
Crew safety on brutal shifts

In-cab alerts catch fatigue in the moment: 35% fewer injury crashes when event video is paired with coaching (J.J. Keller, 2023).

03
Ready equipment, found fast

Battery trackers keep staged equipment on the map, engine hours keep service honest.

Built for the territory

What we set up for utility fleets

The live map is the start. These are the zones, rules, and reports we configure so a storm night runs on data, not radio traffic.

Territory zones

Substations, yards, and work areas geofenced, so time-in-area logs itself.

Storm-mode reports

The restoration timeline compiles feeder by feeder, ready for the regulator.

Digital DVIRs

Inspections documented before the truck leaves the yard.

After-hours and call-out rules

Mobilization pings the on-call chain the moment a truck rolls.

Groups by district

Each district lead sees their crews; the storm room sees the whole map.

Configured and supported here

We build the zones, rules, and reports before the storm, and support them after, U.S.-based.

Configured, not generic

Rules tuned to your operation

Need a threshold changed before storm season? You call your team here and it is done, not a ticket into a vendor queue.

Questions

Utilities fleet FAQ

Can Geotab support storm and outage response?

Live location and routing help you stage crews and respond faster during storms and outages.

Does it track specialized equipment?

Yes. Bucket trucks, digger derricks, and trailers all track through GO, GO Rugged, and GO Anywhere devices.

Can it help with regulatory reporting?

Automated reports and the open platform make it easier to compile the records regulators and management ask for.

Do the cameras record my crews all day?

No. GO Focus cameras are event-based, not continuous surveillance. In-cab privacy controls include a physical privacy option, and a Road Only configuration runs the driver-assistance alerts with no in-cabin camera at all. We help you set a policy your union and your crews can live with.

Can dispatch share a crew's position with the EOC during an event?

Yes. MyGeotab supports live map views and asset-location sharing, so the emergency operations center sees what dispatch sees without needing logins for everyone in the room.

What goes on equipment that sits in the yard most of the year?

GO Anywhere battery trackers. Self-installed, sealed against weather, three to five years of battery life. They report on a schedule and wake up more often when the asset moves.
