RSS1985 Trimble has been awarded a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) by the US General Services Administration (GSA) Federal Acquisition Service for its fleet management solution. The BPA will be administered by GSA Fleet and gives fleet managers the option to implement Trimble's vehicle monitoring, maintenance, driver safety, and driver identification products and services.

GSA Fleet, which provides fleet management services to over 75 participating federal agencies, manages over 217,000 vehicles, one of the largest non-tactical federal fleets in the US government.

By offering the Trimble GeoManager solution, GSA Fleet says it will help agencies reduce operating costs, improve driver safety and comply with Federal directives such as Executive Order 13514 to measure, report and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Using GeoManager, agencies will be better equipped to manage mileage, idle time and fuel usage in an effort to reduce emissions as well as fuel costs.

Trimble has partnered with 1018 Sprint as the wireless carrier for the BPA. Sprint Federal serves over 160 federal agencies and 150 bases worldwide with more than 20 years of experience with the GSA's Federal Technology Service. Together, Sprint and Trimble will provide a national support organisation of more than 300 individuals to assist federal customers.
