Baseline Evaluation
Defining the Current State
Before optimization begins, we establish a transparent baseline to identify where your fleet stands today.
- Fleet Spend Analysis — A deep dive into total expenditures to identify hidden costs and capital leaks.
- Contract Assessment & Risk — We audit existing agreements to uncover unfavorable terms, blind spots, or misaligned performance.
- Fleet List & Utilization — Creating a definitive list of every asset to document specs and measure actual performance.

Why should we start with a baseline evaluation?
Collecting data is easy; turning it into a competitive win is where most fleets fail. This baseline identifies the common "blind spots" in material handling and creates a unified view, from a single lift to an entire global fleet.
In what cases is dedicated fleet management recommended?
Fleet management is essential for any organization that lacks a clear view of its assets and costs. Without data to guide actions, it is nearly impossible to effectively manage, secure, or optimize operations, which is particularly critical for decentralized, multi-site, and multi-vendor organizations that struggle with fragmented data across their network.
How do you handle data from multiple different forklift brands?
We built Propellr to be a vendor-agnostic scoreboard. Our platform is designed to unify data from every forklift in your fleet, regardless of the supplier, lessor, or vendor. We eliminate industry silos by providing a single platform where data reigns supreme, allowing you to manage your global fleet with total control.
Can we manage our fleet if we already have comprehensive data collection?
Even when organizations meet the challenge of comprehensive data collection, they often struggle with technical details, filtering for key info, and matching it to real-time events. The real difficulty lies in harmonizing practices across a network and coordinating local actions while maintaining a cohesive overall view. Propellr provides the "bridge" to navigate these gaps, aligning your operation from the warehouse floor to the C-suite.
My business changes quickly—can the software keep up?
Yes. We understand that your business morphs over time, and your software should adapt accordingly. The platform is built to evolve alongside your goals during every operational ebb and flow, ensuring you always have complete visibility into your financial compliance and maintenance.
