About The Customer
Pike Electric, based in Mount Airy, North Carolina, is one of the largest providers of energy solutions in the United States. The company provides engineering, construction, and maintenance for distribution and transmission power lines, substations, engineering, procurement, and construction, and renewable energy projects. It is a recognized leader in storm restoration. Pike Electric's clients include investor-owned utilities, electric cooperatives, and independent power providers. The company fields a fleet of over 10,000 pieces of equipment, operates eight shops staffed by 20 mechanics, and has about 40 field-based maintenance and repair technicians.
The Challenge
Pike Electric, one of the largest providers of energy solutions in the United States, was facing challenges in managing its massive fleet of over 10,000 pieces of equipment. The company operates eight shops staffed by 20 mechanics and has about 40 field-based maintenance and repair technicians. The existing maintenance and management software systems were not efficient enough to handle the vast fleet and asset information. The company needed a solution that could serve as a central repository of all fleet-related information and could be accessed remotely on various devices like laptops, tablets, and phones. The lack of customization and integration with other systems was another major issue with the existing software.
The Solution
In late 2014, Pike Electric replaced its existing maintenance and management software systems with FleetWave. FleetWave is a web-based, enterprise-level fleet and asset management software. It now serves as the central repository of all fleet-related information for the company. The software is accessible at Pike Electric shops and is used remotely on laptops, tablets, and phones. The company appreciates the ability to customize and add features as needed. The user experience has been significantly improved, with users being able to export the data they want to pull out from any browse screen. The software also easily integrates with a lot of different systems, with many custom integrations built by Pike Electric and Chevin.
Operational Impact
  • The implementation of FleetWave has significantly improved the user experience at Pike Electric. Users can now easily access and export the data they need from any browse screen. The software's ability to easily integrate with a lot of different systems has been very beneficial. The company has built many custom integrations, enhancing the value and efficiency of the software. The ability to customize and add features as needed has also been a positive experience for the company. The company is excited about the product direction and future with Chevin, indicating a high level of satisfaction with the solution.
