This report documents the findings of a three-year research effort, led by the ATA Foundation to expore what information technologies are used by motor carriers and assess their impact on differing types of fleet operations; examine how these fleet technologies can enable participation in Intelligent Transportation Systems/Commercial Vehicle Operations (ITS/CVO) services; examine how motor carriers perceive the value of ITS/CVO services; and, estimate potential motor carrier participation in Intelligent Transportation Systems/Commercial Vehicle Operations (ITS/CVO) services. Findings are documented for: (1)the specific technologies that are being most widely adopted by motor carriers to enhance operational efficiencies; (2) estimated motor carrier benefit/cost ratios for fleet technologies; and, (3)potential motor carrier participation in ITS/CVO services.
