A key technology partner driving the public
sector’s digital transformation, Samsara’s growing list of
customers includes the State of New Jersey, City of Fresno,
Hernando County, and more
Samsara Inc. ("Samsara") (NYSE: IOT), the pioneer of the
Connected Operations™ Cloud, today announced new insight into its
U.S. public sector customer growth, as the company continues to
expand its customer base across organizations that serve millions
of constituents every day. Samsara partners with government and
education customers at the state and local levels nationwide to
digitize their operations, helping to increase service transparency
and sustainability, improve community safety, and take
data-informed actions.
“Behind every clean street, safe passenger dropoff, and quick
emergency response, there is a public sector organization that made
it possible. They are critical for our local economies and are
increasingly using real-time data to gain insights and innovate
their processes,” said Rhonda Eiffe, AVP of Public Sector at
Samsara. “Helping these organizations become safer, more efficient,
and more sustainable so they can better serve their communities is
what drives us. It’s exciting to be a part of their digital
transformation and we’re just getting started.”
The City of Houston, the fourth most populous city in the
nation, is one such customer that chose to digitize its operations
with Samsara’s Connected Operations Cloud. The Houston Public Works
department is responsible for important constituent services like
the operations and maintenance of streets, the production and
distribution of water, among others. The City leverages Samsara’s
real-time monitoring capabilities for its fleet of light and
heavy-duty vehicles and equipment like water pumps and generators.
As a result, it can improve efficiency outcomes, safety
initiatives, and more.
“Samsara’s platform and range of solutions like cameras and
equipment tracking were what we needed to improve our operations,”
said Brian Blum, Assistant Director of Procurement, Fleet, and
Warehousing at the City of Houston, Houston Public Works. “We’re
excited to partner and work with Samsara’s team on several
important initiatives that will further establish Houston as a
world-class city.”
The following is a snapshot of a few more organizations that
chose Samsara this year*:
- State of New Jersey: The State maintains highways, bridges, and
associated infrastructure that serve more than nine million people.
NJDOT uses Samsara to provide real-time fleet management data that
reduces costs, increases service efficiency, and maximizes
utilization, particularly for winter operations. In doing so, it
can operate more sustainably.
- City of Fresno: Fresno is a prominent city in Central
California with a dedication to sustainability. The City was drawn
to Samsara’s easy-to-use platform and ability to support its
sustainability strategy, including electric vehicle adoption and
digital workflows.
- City of Mobile: One of the most populous cities in the state of
Alabama, the City of Mobile switched to Samsara for increased
operational efficiency and safety. The City will use Samsara's
platform to support maintenance and increase utilization across its
fleet of light and heavy-duty vehicles. The ability to capture and
pull real-time video footage was recognized as a key benefit for
driver safety and exoneration.
- Hernando County: Located on the central-west coast of Florida,
Hernando County uses multiple Samsara solutions to drive efficiency
and safety improvements through streamlined maintenance and driver
coaching. As a result, it can create a better experience for
employees and improve community services.
- NJ TRANSIT: Providing nearly 270 million passenger trips each
year, NJ TRANSIT is the nation's third-largest provider of bus,
rail, and light rail transit, linking major points in New Jersey,
New York, and Philadelphia. Samsara’s solutions and open ecosystem
of integrations help NJ TRANSIT run safer and more efficient
operations.
In addition to new customers, Samsara continues to build on its
existing relationships this year through expansions, including with
Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (Metro), Memphis
Light, Gas and Water, and the City of Allentown, Pennsylvania.
Samsara’s public sector growth is representative of the impactful
results it can deliver in improving citizen services, maximizing
taxpayer dollars, and strengthening safety practices. For example,
the City of Allentown reported that it has realized a 25% reduction
in vehicle incidents, a 95% reduction in citizen calls, and more
than $1M in taxpayer savings.
“Samsara has been a game changer for us,” said Daniel Steckel,
Fleet Services Bureau Manager at the City of Allentown. “Across the
board, it has saved us a lot of time and money—and we keep finding
new ways we can use Samsara to inform decisions and optimize
services across departments.”
In a recent study from the Center for Digital Government, 56% of
state and local government leaders stated they will upgrade their
technology solutions by 2025. Samsara has become a key technology
partner driving the public sector’s digital transformation, which
is demonstrated by its most recent fiscal quarter results – two of
its top-five new customers and two of its top-five expansion deals
were within the public sector. Further, Forrester Research
identified Samsara among notable vendors in its recent report, “The
Public Sector Industry Cloud Landscape, Q3 2023.”
“The process of switching to Samsara was virtually seamless and
has made our organization not only perform better, but sustain that
higher performance level,” said Rusty McClain, Assistant General
Superintendent at the Road Commission of Kalamazoo County. “Our
operators have been amazed at how easy Samsara is to use. We have
noticed a change in how our team embraces technology.”
As part of Samsara’s investment in the public sector, the
company is an active member of several causes and organizations
that strive to make communities safer. For example, Samsara joined
the U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Roadway Safety
Strategy (NRSS) Call to Action. As an ally, Samsara is committed to
helping to reduce serious injuries and deaths on roadways. In
addition, Samsara is a member of Together for Safer Roads (TSR), a
leading international NGO focused on building cross-sector
partnerships to improve fleet trucking safety. TSR leverages
private-sector technology, data, and expertise to create innovative
programs aimed at preventing traffic crashes, injuries, and
fatalities.
“Samsara is a champion of safety and plays an important role in
providing innovative technology solutions to the public and private
sectors,” said Peter Goldwasser, Executive Director at TSR.
“Collisions on the world’s roads are rapidly becoming one of this
generation’s most pressing global health and development crises.
With Samsara and our larger membership community’s support, we can
create significant and lasting change.”
