Use case · Bus and truck fleet management

From GPS to the workshop,
your whole fleet in the ERP.

A bus and truck operator wants to know where its vehicles are, what state they are in and when to stop them. A small device brings all of it straight into the ERP.

The situation

GPS tracking lives in one portal, maintenance in another tool, mileage in a spreadsheet filled in by hand. A breakdown is discovered on the road, and the tachograph calibration turns up at the last minute.

What gets in the way

  • Mileage is read by hand, when it is read at all
  • An engine fault code stays invisible until the breakdown
  • GPS tracking does not talk to the workshop
  • Regulatory deadlines are followed from memory

How it works

  1. 1

    Equip

    A small device connects to the vehicle: GPS position, OBD2 and J1939 diagnostic port, cellular network.

  2. 2

    Track

    Real-time position, zone entries and exits, speed, prolonged idling and harsh driving come up into the ERP.

  3. 3

    Count

    The odometer comes up from the vehicle to its record, with no data entry. Imported fuel fills give the consumption.

  4. 4

    Anticipate

    A critical fault code triggers an alert and prepares a repair order for that vehicle.

  5. 5

    Maintain

    Repair orders by phase, parts, subcontracting and mechanics' planning. Tachograph and breathalyser have their due dates.

What changes

One record per vehicle

Position, mileage, alerts, repairs and calibrations read in one place.

Breakdowns seen earlier

The workshop receives the fault before the vehicle returns, with the code sent up by the engine.

Accounts of every trip

Distance, driving, stops and consumption are kept on record, ready for your emissions report.

Respect for drivers

Raw positions kept for 60 days at most, and each driver can obtain an export of their data.
