Wuethrich Transportation operates as the transportation division of Grassland Dairy, a family-owned company that began in 1904 in Greenwood, Wisconsin. Since 2020, Lony Oestreich, Fleet and Driver Safety Coordinator, has been using the J. J. Keller® Encompass® Fleet Management Platform to help optimize their fleet’s performance and keep their DOT files organized and in compliance.
With over three dozen drivers and vehicles, Wuethrich Transportation needed a robust fleet management system to transform their performance data into tangible insights. Encompass was able to give them that, and more. “Encompass gives me tons of options to monitor our fleet. The best part about Encompass is that I get a quarterly and yearly snapshot of our drivers’ performance and vehicle performance,” said Oestreich. “I like the ability to monitor driver performance such as hard braking, speed events, RPMs, and mileage. It’s easy to see which drivers fall under the nautical mileage exemption rule and those that don’t.”
Oestreich appreciates the route tracking features available in Encompass® with ELogs, allowing him to see where their drivers are throughout the day. “Encompass gives me the ability to understand exactly how our fleet is working,” said Oestreich. “The mapping feature has saved us a lot of time when dispatching drivers. Encompass tells us what routes drivers are on and where they’re going at all times. If we’re trying to get a hold of a driver, I just look at the map and know exactly where they’re at.”
Wuethrich Transportation relies on Encompass to keep their DOT files organized and in compliance. “Encompass lets me see everything I’m looking for,” said Oestreich. “The back office reports are very easily accessible and functional.” Oestreich also uses Encompass for managing the fleet’s drug and alcohol testing program. “Encompass makes it easy to set up random DOT tests, and puts all our data in a nice timetable.”
Whenever he has a question about Encompass or the DOT regulations, Oestreich knows he can rely on J. J. Keller to get it figured out. “The level of service I get from J. J. Keller exceeds anybody else that I’ve worked with before. I’m very happy with the quick responses I’ve received to all the questions I have.” Oestreich said.
