Case Study: Driving Efficiency with Data

Client: Wanzek Construction Project: Video Production for Trimble Fleet Management Solution Launch My Role: Sole Producer (Concept, Scripting, Filming, Editing, Delivery)
The Challenge Wanzek Construction lacked visibility into their massive equipment fleet, leading to high operational costs and preventable equipment damage. Their strategic goal was to implement a new system to establish a baseline, reduce asset loss, and foster a more accountable and efficient operational culture.
The Solution I was tasked with producing an internal video to launch the Trimble Fleet Management Solution. The video needed to do more than just explain a new tool—it had to champion a strategic shift, connecting daily equipment use to the company's bottom line and safety culture.
The Video & The Impact The video featured key leaders like Director of Equipment and Fleet Joel O’Neill, showcasing how Trimble’s real-time tracking and streamlined processes empower teams. The results were staggering. By providing unprecedented visibility and accountability, Wanzek drove a massive cultural and financial improvement:
A 52.5% reduction in damage events (from 400 events in 2021 to 190 in 2022).
A savings of over $3.2 million (from $3.8M in 2021 to under $600,000 in 2022).
The cost per event plummeted from nearly $10,000 to approximately $3,000.
The video served as a central piece in communicating this success, proving that a strategic investment in technology, when communicated effectively, directly protects both people and profit.
"We had over 400 events that equated to $3.8 million in equipment damages. In 2022, we were at 190 events and less than $600,000. That's a significant reduction. As a company, we did a significantly better job." Wanzek Construction Leadership
