Commercial vehicle specification is both an art and science, practiced by fleet managers who best know their own company’s operations. It’s true that recent trends toward vertical integration in manufacturing have somewhat limited a fleet manager’s options when it comes to spec’ing; however, a dazzling array of choices remain when it comes to specifying nearly all aspects of commercial vehicle design. Understanding how all the possible combinations and permutations of various powertrain, driveline, electronic, tire/wheel, etc., options can impact one another can be quite daunting, even for experienced veterans. The wrong choices can negatively impact current operations and reduce resale potential. During this session, our expert panel will discuss how AI tools can enhance the vehicle specification process, helping fleets to make better buying decisions through intelligent data analysis.
