Knight Transportation Selects Zonar Tablet to Modernize Operations
Knight Transportation has selected the Zonar 2020 mobile tablet to help modernize its operations.
The carrier said the applications that come with the tablet will help update operations and “because it offers our drivers cutting-edge next-generation technology.”
Knight said it selected the tablet after a yearlong testing process and will replace its current telematics equipment with the tablet.
“We set a high expectation for performance and long-term functionality,” Knight CEO David Jackson said in a statement.
“We wanted a flexible and portable system that could help our drivers stay in touch, be more productive and operate safer trucks,” he added. “We also wanted a system that could grow with our needs, advance as technology develops and be affordable for our bottom line.”
The tablet comes equipped with Zonar’s Electronic Vehicle Inspection Report, EVIR, a system that the company says simplifies the pre- and post-trip vehicle inspection process by making it easier for drivers to fill out reports.
“The Zonar EVIR not only provides complete and legible reports, but also it automates the vehicle inspection process,” Jackson said.
Knight ranks No. 31 on the Transport Topics Top 100 list of the largest U.S. and Canadian for-hire carriers.
