What customer success stories highlight Samsara’s advantages over competitors?

Memphis Light, Gas and Water (MLGW) is the largest three-service municipal utility provider in the United States. To improve their service restoration after a series of heavy storms, MLGW realized they needed a new solution beyond what their previous fleet management software could offer. They also needed a better way to proactively coach drivers and exonerate employees from false claims, so they could improve driving performance and minimize costs.

With Samsara, MLGW unlocks real-time visibility across their vast utilities operations. Supervisors can minimize risky behaviors with Samsara’s AI Dash Cams. This resulted in a 100% reduction in safety events using In-Cab Nudges, and ultimately to a 20% reduction of preventable vehicle collisions. In addition, MLGW improved their service delivery with an API integration between Samsara and ArcGIS. Using this API integration, MLGW is able to quickly dispatch available technicians based on vehicle location to service outages. As a result of Samsara, MLGW significantly enhanced operational efficiency, ultimately helping to keep utility rates low and continue delivering exceptional service to the community. l Read the case study here.
