Introduction
The client in the business of transport and logistics approached us to resolve the problem of vehicle utilisation which had been affecting the profitability of operations in the long run. Another reason was the heterogeneous mix of vehicles in the fleet that needed better planning, scheduling and route management. As we are able to offer a highly customisable software for fleet tracking and vehicle management we offered a solution to address their problem.
The Problem Outline
At the outset, our executives had a discussion with the client to identify their pain points and the challenges that they faced in their operations as a transport and logistics provider. They needed to increase their vehicle utilisation to the fullest in order to reduce the operating cost. By increasing the utilization of the vehicles they intended to increase the efficiency of the fleet operations. With a fleet management solution, they will know how to balance the vehicle utilization disparity. As the software can automate tasks and generate reports in real-time. the software can keep a tab on each vehicle’s mileage, the hours of operation and the downtime for various reasons. This will help them calculate the ROI of their logistic business to improve it.
The Solution Summary
