GPS Insight partners with PLM to offer telematics fleet safety solutions

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — GPS Insight, a provider of SaaS-based fleet and field service management software solutions, has announced a strategic partnership with Pennsylvania Lumbermens Mutual, a property and casualty insurance company serving the lumber and woodworking industries. The partnership is designed to provide vehicle and video telematics and fleet safety solutions to its policyholders at a significant discount, reducing claims by up to 30%.

“Partnering with a mutual insurance company such as Pennsylvania Lumbermens that truly places the needs of wood product and building material policyholders before anything else is of the utmost importance for us,” said Julie Lawton, VP Strategic Partnerships at GPS Insight. “Pennsylvania Lumbermens Mutual has a 127-year track record of serving the best interest of lumber dealers, woodworkers and organizations that support the industry. Extending our safety solutions to equip their lumber fleet policyholders with the best tech on the market will support a culture of risk management and safety for employees.”

Pennsylvania Lumbermens Mutual will have the ability to track and record data in real-time using telematics, which GPS Insight says is the gold standard tool for fleet risk management.
