Northbrook, IL – Donlen today announced that it made this
year’s InformationWeek 500 – a list of the top technology innovators in the
U.S. This is the second year in a row that InformationWeek recognized Donlen.
Ranked 178 on the list, Donlen was recognized for Donlen Logistics, a comprehensive
suite of mobile and electronic logistics products to help fleets that operate
trucks and equipment comply with Department of Transportation (DOT) Federal
Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMSCA) reporting requirements. Donlen
Logistics was developed in conjunction with Hertz Equipment Rental (HERC).
“By giving drivers necessary compliance reporting tools via
a handheld device while out in the field, companies will not only reduce safety
violations and penalties incurred for incomplete or missing reports, it will
improve driver morale as well,” said Dennis Straight, Donlen’s SVP and CIO.
“What was once a cumbersome process for drivers is now streamlined and
efficient. Imagine having to keep multiple copies of seven days’ worth of
reports in the tight quarters of a truck cab. This is no longer an issue.”
"The theme of this year's InformationWeek 500 is
digital business. It's a movement, rooted in data analytics, mobile computing,
social networking and other customer‐focused technologies that are turning
companies and industries on their ear," said InformationWeek Editor In
Chief Rob Preston. "Every enterprise is now a digital business — or needs
to become one fast. The organizations in our ranking are leading the way."
InformationWeek identifies and honors the nation's most
innovative users of information technology with its annual InformationWeek 500
listing, and also tracks the technology, strategies, investments, and
administrative practices of some of the best‐known organizations in the country.
Unique among corporate rankings, the InformationWeek 500 spotlights the power
of innovation in information technology.
