New York City Fleet Business Intelligence Case Study

This case study details how the New York City Fleet utilizes Business Intelligence (BI) to enhance safety and reduce traffic-related fatalities through the Vision Zero initiative. The document outlines the background of the Vision Zero Action Plan, launched by Mayor Bill de Blasio, which aims to change the perception of traffic collisions and fatalities. It describes the various metrics tracked by the City Fleet, including citywide collisions, pedestrian injuries, and preventive maintenance. The case study explains the three BI tools employed: Crystal Reports for tracking collision metrics, dashboards for real-time information display, and ad hoc reporting for customized data analysis. The use of these tools has reportedly contributed to a reduction in fatalities and injuries related to fleet collisions. The document emphasizes the collaborative effort involving citizens, lawmakers, and industry leaders to achieve safety goals, such as lowering speed limits and enforcing stricter traffic laws.
