Are Fleet Management Services the Key to Scaling Up UAS Programs?

By removing some of the work involved with keeping drones up and running, Fortress Solutions hopes to help companies think bigger.

Implementing drone workflows can be straightforward when there are only a few platforms to manage but scaling to work with a fleet of drones across various company locations can pose additional challenges.

By taking over the repair, refueling and logistics, Fortress Solutions’ business model allows companies to scale up their drone programs without dedicating additional staff. At the Commercial UAV Expo, we spoke to Fortress Solutions about their services and their partnership with Doosan to provide hydrogen fuel cells for their long-distance drones.
