ROUTE MANAGEMENT
Route Planning: The secret to achieving client delivery expectations is by determining the best route assignments for your fleet, which includes the product, vehicle, and driver availability as well as analysing road conditions. You may find out which trucks in your fleet are using the correct routes, and carrying the right goods at the right times, by using Asimotech’s route-planning technologies. This lowers the number of vehicles required and the distance travelled, saving you money on fuel and vehicle maintenance.
Route Execution Optimisation: The optimum route for each stop will be recommended to your driver by superior driving optimisation software after routes have been planned, trucks have been allocated, and stops have been scheduled. Because they do not take into account detours, constantly shifting traffic circumstances, route limits (essential when transporting hazardous products), truck size (critical for road and bridge limitations), or detours, standard on-truck mapping capabilities are sometimes unsuitable for this task. The following stop may always be as swift as possible thanks to OmniQ’s solution, reducing unexpected events and delays.
Telematics and Vehicle Performance
Every year, vehicles become smarter, therefore it’s critical to use that technology to maximise effectiveness. That is exactly what a telematics solution does. To increase safety and efficiency through coaching and training, it enables you to keep an eye on driver performance by monitoring harsh braking, speeding, and other undesirable driving behaviours. More sophisticated systems have cameras that can identify the state of the road and the vicinity of other vehicles, and alert drivers in real-time to potential problems. With telematics, you can even schedule maintenance before something fails.
These systems can be used with electronic logging devices (ELDs) to track time spent driving and service hours.
Pickup, Transit, and Delivery Tracking Solutions
You may trace the whereabouts of packages at any point in transit which will keep your customers satisfied and informed. The automated pickup and delivery solutions let drivers collect signatures using a mobile computer and submit them wirelessly with a date, time, and location stamp. They may also scan tracking numbers for verification.
Additionally, you can view the locations of every truck in your fleet and get notifications for problems. Automatic proof of delivery enables you to keep consumers informed, lower errors, and increase driver productivity.
Route Edge Automated Pickup and Delivery Systems: The Route Edge software is a tool for enhancing efficiency in the delivery, billing, and merchandising processes. It enables the configuration and management of business routes, clients, and products. Route Edge can help you improve customer experience, lower returns, and out-of-stock items, reduce paperwork and administration, and provide insight into your inventory for better management.
In Transit Visibility: You may examine how execution compares to your plans and make any adjustments by using in-transit data. You can view the real-time GPS locations of your fleet, including the locations of the vehicles’ cargo. This monitoring information can be retained to identify future behaviour. Alerts can be set up to inform you of any circumstances, such as on-road assistance or truck transfers. Location-based alerts are provided through geo-mapping, such as when a truck arrives at its destination or enters a no-drive zone.
Proof of Delivery: Real-time delivery confirmation boosts client confidence, quickens the invoicing cycle, and ends client complaints about delivery delays. These options are readily adjustable with the help of Route Edge software. These include mobile computer signature capture, which enables receipt and invoice generation as well as real-time delivery confirmation. Drivers have the ability to scan any packing with a barcode and even snap pictures of the product once it has been delivered or any damaged goods.
Direct Store Delivery (DSD): Direct store delivery (DSD) solutions reduce returns and out-of-stock items by offering the right combination of products in the right amounts at the right time, using real-time consumer information and sales history. The program assists you in forecasting the ideal product mix for a given time by considering past sales data, previous promotions, seasonal variations, shelf space, and even weather conditions. The DSD technology creates invoices automatically and enables vendors to send invoice information to the retailer’s system.
Inventory Management on the Road
Utilise inventory management tools to prevent losing valuable and returnable assets. Observe the inventory in the truck and at the destination. Even if they are not immediately apparent in a fully loaded trailer, RFID enables drivers to swiftly scan valuable and returnable items. Some systems can automatically identify when important assets are out of the truck’s line of sight and notify you so that losses can be minimised.
