Software for the Transport Industry

Custom transport software: from fleet management to route optimisation and driver apps. Digitise your fleet operations and reduce costs.

The transport industry is the backbone of the global economy, yet it faces immense pressure from rising fuel costs, strict emissions regulations, and a growing driver shortage. Transport companies that want to stay competitive must invest in digitalisation. Custom software enables fleet operators to monitor their vehicles in real time, plan routes intelligently, and support drivers with user-friendly mobile apps — all from a single centralised platform.

Pain points

  • Lack of real-time visibility into vehicle locations and fleet status across the entire operation
  • Inefficient route planning leading to unnecessary kilometres, higher fuel costs, and delays
  • Manual processing of driving and rest hours causing compliance errors and fines during inspections
  • Poor communication between dispatchers and drivers resulting in missed last-minute changes
  • Fragmented systems for planning, invoicing, and maintenance that do not communicate with each other

Our solutions

  • Fleet management platform with GPS tracking, vehicle status monitoring, and real-time dashboards
  • AI-driven route optimisation accounting for traffic, delivery windows, vehicle capacity, and emission zones
  • Mobile driver app with digital consignment notes, driving hours registration, and navigation integration
  • Automated maintenance management with predictive alerts based on mileage and sensor data
  • Seamless integrations between planning, TMS, invoicing, and on-board computers

Benefits

  • Up to 20% lower fuel costs through optimised routes and driving behaviour analysis
  • Full compliance with driving and rest time regulations through automated registration and alerts
  • Faster invoicing and fewer errors through digital consignment notes and automatic hour linking
  • Higher driver satisfaction through better communication and less administrative work on the road
