Comprehensive Digital Fleet Management System for Enhanced Operational Efficiency

The client faces inefficiencies due to manual truck fleet tracking and management using disparate files and spreadsheets, leading to data loss, errors, and limited scalability. The existing system hampers operational visibility and timely decision-making, affecting fleet uptime and project execution.

A mid-sized logistics company seeking to optimize its truck fleet operations, maintenance, and project coordination to support business growth.

• Develop a unified digital platform to centralize fleet data, maintenance schedules, driver information, and project documentation.
• Implement real-time GPS tracking and vehicle sensor integrations to monitor vehicle statuses and predict maintenance needs, minimizing breakdowns and downtime.
• Create automated maintenance scheduling based on vehicle usage metrics such as mileage and predefined intervals.
• Establish a centralized document repository for vehicle registrations, insurance, driver contracts, and project-related files.
• Incorporate inventory management features for freight tracking and stock management during transportation.
• Enable seamless integration with existing accounting and financial systems to facilitate invoicing, payroll, and financial reporting.
• Improve operational efficiency, reduce vehicle downtime, and enhance resource allocation accuracy, supporting scalable growth.

• Maintenance Scheduler: Automated scheduling based on vehicle usage and predefined maintenance intervals to ensure timely servicing.
