The Multi-Carrier IoT SIM in Action – 3 Case Studies
1. Transportation Company
A major USPS ground transportation provider faced significant challenges managing their large fleet across 33 states. With over 2,000 drivers and numerous USPS facilities, they struggled with juggling multiple carrier relationships for nationwide coverage. Despite their efforts, they still encountered persistent connectivity issues and dead zones. Managing relationships with multiple carriers proved time-consuming and costly. Moreover, they lacked a comprehensive fleet overview due to fragmented carrier data.
MetTel addressed these issues with our multi-carrier IoT connectivity solution and enterprise mobility services. We provided a seamless framework for eSIM employee connectivity, ELD-compliant in-vehicle tablets, and USPS trailer tracking for proof of delivery. Our IoT Single SIM ensured consistent connectivity by accessing the strongest available network.
This solution allowed the company to work with a single provider (MetTel) for all device distribution and use one portal for monitoring, reporting, and analytics. They also benefited from our fleet management service for device deployment. As a result, the organization could focus on its core business while enjoying improved efficiency and significant cost savings.
2. City of Phoenix, AZ
The City of Phoenix, the 5th most populous U.S. city with 1.7 million residents, faced efficiency challenges due to rapid growth. City leaders recognized the need to modernize service delivery in their Public Works and Water Departments, and their digital transformation goals included automating proof of service, inspections, and record keeping. Beyond streamlining administration, they sought to revolutionize service delivery with smart route planning and dispatching to enhance driver and vehicle safety.
MetTel addressed these needs with a comprehensive, managed-service multi-carrier connectivity program. We equipped Public Works and Water Department drivers with rugged tablets featuring MetTel’s IoT Single SIM. This technology ensured drivers could access the strongest mobile connection throughout the city, maintaining constant communication with the central office and internet-based tools.
The solution provided the City of Phoenix with a unified view of its workforce, including location-based intelligence, driver safety scoring, and vehicle diagnostics tools. The results were significant: workforce productivity improved by 17%, vehicle operating expenses decreased by over $30K monthly, and fuel costs reduced by 14%. Driver safety and insurance safety ratings also improved. Additionally, the city saved over $250K annually by reducing idling and unplanned trips.
3. Recycling & Waste Management
One of the largest waste disposal providers in the United States, with a 36,000-member team, faced challenges in monitoring its equipment and vehicle fleet for wear and tear. The company aimed to improve energy efficiency, reduce fuel consumption, cut costs, and digitize vehicle and employee tracking and routing.
MetTel’s approach involved deploying specially designed, durable tablets to the entire driver fleet, with each device incorporating our Single SIM technology. This ensured constant connectivity through intelligent roaming, finding the best mobile signal regardless of carrier. These tablets became crucial to daily operations, handling tasks from driver timekeeping to dispatch and rerouting.
By consolidating services with MetTel as their single provider, the company gained a comprehensive view of its workforce and fleet. This unified dashboard provided location-based intelligence, driver safety scoring, and vehicle diagnostics for maintenance and repairs. Working with just one provider streamlined operations and simplified management. The resulting real-time visibility enabled significant savings through improved fuel efficiency and optimized route planning. Issue resolution also became more streamlined, further enhancing operational efficiency.
