TireVigil chosen as TPMS for Star Coaches fleet

After a 12 week trial Atlanta-based Star Coaches Inc. has selected TireStamp Corp.'s TireVigil™ Pro system for monitoring the tires on its fleet of luxury motorcoaches. Star Coaches will roll out the TireVigil solution on a continual basis to support its fleet that caters to the demanding schedules of entertainers, musicians, political figures and corporate magnates.

TireVigil Pro continuously analyzes tire pressure and temperature data to give fleets the ability to both monitor and react to developing tire problems such as slow leaks, under or over inflation conditions, mismatched duals and overheating while at the same time providing them ongoing analysis of tire performance across the fleet, the company says. This visibility provides Star Coaches with the ability to perform proactive tire service to prevent time consuming, emergency enroute delays, and the information they need for better casing management and tire and retread purchasing decisions.

"Star Coaches wanted a technology that can alert their fleet management of tire problems and ensure that they are addressed properly by their drivers even though their buses are hundreds of miles away in order to reduce their tire and fuel costs. TireVigil(TM) Pro delivers that solution," says Peggy Fisher, president of TireStamp Corp.
