Machine IQ Transforms Garden Design from Reactive to Proactive Fleet Management

Garden Design uses Bobcat® Machine IQ Telematics advanced machine monitoring and management tools to shift their maintenance culture from reactive to proactive fleet management, maximizing equipment life, productivity and profitability across their entire operation. 

Challenge: Effective Oversight for Multi-Site Operations 

Garden Design, a leading landscaping company in Dallas/Fort Worth, entrusts Fleet Manager Javier Cortez to manage its Bobcat equipment across various commercial and residential projects.  

The complexity of coordinating equipment involving different subcontractors and regions made fleet oversight a constant struggle. Without clear visibility into equipment utilization, determining which machines were actually productive versus sitting idle became guesswork rather than strategy. 

The maintenance challenge was even more complex. Machines would run out of fuel or develop preventable issues because operators didn’t treat the rented equipment like their own. Without accountability, minor problems could quickly become unplanned service interruptions.
