Why CrewChief Critical Weather Service?

Of all the variables encountered daily to operate a fleet, weather is perhaps the biggest. It has a tremendous impact on routing, customer services, profits, safety, unplanned downtime, and insurance. Real-time weather in relation to vehicles and assets enables better decisions before things go wrong.
