JACKSONVILLE, Fla.Winn-Dixie will use the Xatanet fleet management applications from Xata, Minneapolis, to optimize its delivery fleet, which serves the grocer’s 515 stores located throughout the southeastern United States.

The system is designed to help Winn-Dixie reduce its operating costs by leveraging fleet reporting capabilities. In addition, fleet managers and drivers will have access to fleet information and product delivery data through the use of Xatanet, which will run on Motorola MC75 handheld devices provided by Stratix.

“One key differentiator that made Xata stand out is its capability to run Xatanet on various platforms and hardware devices,” said Chris Scott, group vice president of logistics and distribution for Winn-Dixie, in a statement. “The product’s functionality as well as the insight we will gain from our fleet were key factors in our decision-making process.”
