CLARK SMART Telematics: Boost Efficiency 15%, Save $3K/Year

Forklift fleets bleed efficiency through idle time and unexpected repairs—CLARK SMART telematics stops the leak. This advanced system tracks every move, boosting productivity 15% for operations managers and saving CFOs $3,000 per forklift annually. Here’s how CLARK SMART transforms your warehouse.

 

CLARK SMART’s 7” touchscreen dashboard delivers real-time data—driver behavior, GPS location, and usage stats. The Material Handling Institute’s *2023 Annual Industry Report* (p. 47) notes telematics cuts idle time 10-20%, lifting efficiency 15%. Ops managers can spot a forklift idling 2 hours daily and reroute it, adding 1-2 hours of lifts per shift. That’s 15% more pallets moved, no extra crew needed, on any forklift—CLARK SMART works across makes and models.

 

CLARK SMART enforces pre-shift inspections and flags issues like impacts or low battery (under 20%) via cellular/Wi-Fi alerts. ABI Research’s *2024 Telematics in Material Handling* (p. 12) reports 20% downtime reduction with predictive alerts. Ops avoids shift disruptions; CFOs save $1,500-$2,000 per forklift yearly on repairs, per ABI’s cost models. Plus, operator restrictions enhance safety, cutting OSHA-reportable incidents.

 

Telematics trims 10-15% off operating costs, per MHI’s *2023 Report* (p. 48), targeting wasteful routing and idle time (15% of budgets). For a 5-forklift fleet at $15,000/year in labor/energy, CLARK SMART saves $2,250, plus $750-$1,000 maintenance (ABI, 2024), totaling $3,000. CFOs get a clear ROI, no monthly fees—5 years of data included.

 

CLARK SMART installs on any forklift, from 48-volt electrics to IC trucks, with no IT overhaul (*CLARK Material Handling*, 2022). Ops gets a user-friendly portal; CFOs see year-one savings. It’s built for warehouses, from food to distribution.
