Fleet assets like locomotives, aircraft, and military weapon systems have long service lives, typically measured in decades. Technology changes massively during the typical lifetime of a fleet asset. The upshot is that a large portion of the world’s fleet assets have outdated on-board technology.

In this episode, we’ll discuss the flip side -- the opportunities to run more profitable, safer, and smarter operations by upgrading fleets with modern technology.
