Solutions for Transportation and Logistics
Move safely, securely, and efficiently across the supply chain
Optimize Your Logistics Operations with Real-Time, Real-World Data Intelligence
Maintaining a resilient and efficient global supply chain today takes more than just staying on schedule, providing excellent customer service, and keeping costs in check. It requires maximum logistics visibility — which means being able to track, monitor, and control everything from precise location and driver workflow to cargo environmental conditions and load statuses. Additionally, you need a way to manage your mixed fleet’s enormous volume of data and multiple, diverse systems — and derive real-time insights you can efficiently act on.
Whether it’s containers, chassis, trailers, reefers, dry vans, in-cab, or cargo you’re managing, Powerfleet is here to help you solve your challenges and tackle increasing complexity. With Powerfleet’s Unity fleet intelligence platform, you can access real-world, decision-grade insights to help you:
- Reduce risk, costs, and liability
- Increase vehicle longevity
- Boost asset utilization and productivity
- Improve customer satisfaction
Common Challenges We Can Overcome Together
Lack of Visibility and Tracking
When you’re working to meet customer demands for timely, temperature-controlled, and complete cargo deliveries, knowing your vehicles’ locations at all times is a crucial concern. Without the ability to track your assets, you don’t know what equipment is available and when — which puts your customer service quality at risk and can result in missed business opportunities. Also, without a reliable way to know the whereabouts of your resources, your assets are vulnerable to theft and unauthorized use.
Powerfleet empowers you with real-time visibility into equipment and vehicle location, so you always know where your assets are and when they are available to use. With constant insight into your resources via GPS tracking, you are far better equipped to prevent unauthorized use and theft — and achieve faster asset recovery if theft occurs. This enhanced visibility also enables you to maximize asset utilization,
Concerns About
Driver Safety
Not being able to monitor your drivers’ behavior or understand what events are causing accidents in your fleet can pose a significant danger to your vehicles and your drivers. You need a clear view of your drivers’ behavior so you can improve driver coaching, address risky behaviors, reduce and prevent accidents, and avoid litigation.
With Powerfleet, you can leverage real-time in-cab insights on driver behavior and history — including speed, impacts, driver fatigue, and more — to develop driver scorecards and coaching opportunities. Additionally, video and analytical data can help you comprehensively understand what happened before, during, and after accidents so you can reduce litigation risks and exonerate drivers not at fault — as well as proactively map high-risk areas and activities to prevent future incidents.
Navigating Compliance
Complexity
Addressing the challenge of the Electronic Logging Device (ELD) rule and managing compliance with the International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA) amongst other global and local regulations can be difficult. You may also be doing your compliance monitoring and checklists manually, whether in writing or verbally, which can lead to errors and potential penalties and litigation.
Let us simplify and streamline your compliance efforts by automating accurate data collection and reporting through our in-cab Compliance and Workflow Management solution. It complies with ELD regulations and enables efficient Hours of Service (HOS) management, as well as streamlined Driver Vehicle Inspection Reports (DVIR) — helping you to adhere to regulatory requirements, proactively address compliance issues, and reduce the risk of penalties and litigation.
Unidentified Causes of
Wear and Tear
When you don’t have data on real-world vehicle usage, or a way to manage your vehicle inspections, costs can add up fast between inefficient maintenance practices and unplanned repair expenses. Not knowing how many hours your equipment is being used can lead to unplanned downtime, increased rentals, and soaring business costs. Furthermore, being at the mercy of your OEM maintenance schedules can lead to under or over servicing your assets and incurring additional costs.
With Powerfleet’s equipment usage data, you can perform proactive and preventative maintenance based on actual usage instead of arbitrary schedules. You’ll receive instant notifications on potential health issues, like engine diagnostics and fault codes, for streamlined repair prioritization. By avoiding unnecessary servicing while ensuring you never miss an important maintenance event, you can increase utilization, decrease costs, and raise customer satisfaction.
Sustainability
Mandates
Managing the complexities of government mandates for ESG reporting and fleet electrification is no small task. To successfully meet these requirements and fulfill your company’s sustainability goals, you need clear, up-to-date information and insights around fleet efficiency — down to every vehicle.
To help advance your green agenda, we provide eco-scoring insights to help you decrease fuel consumption, carbon emissions, and wear and tear of vehicles. In addition, you’ll have insight into your fleet’s efficiency — including vehicle age, total cost of ownership, and miles per gallon — which enables you to see which vehicles may be a good fit for moving to electric.
Poor Integration Capabilities
and Manual Data Collection
Seamlessly integrating data from a diverse fleet of vehicle types — including but not limited to dry vans, flatbeds, and tankers — is impossible with manual data processes. The sheer volume of data from multiple, disparate systems is unmanageable, resulting in data latency, inaccuracy, and inconsistency — along with the inability to derive real-world, real-time insights that can help you improve business operations.
Our device-agnostic platform, Unity, takes on the heavy lifting by ingesting data from all your disconnected data sources, including IoT devices, 3rd party devices, OEMs, and business systems. Serving as your true one-stop-shop for data aggregation and visualization, Unity transforms that data into real-world, decision-grade insights so you can make informed decisions, optimize schedules, safeguard the condition of cargo, proactively detect issues, and elevate fleet performance.
