How we got there

01

The Challenge

TransLogix operated 180 delivery vehicles serving regional routes but lacked real-time visibility into fleet operations. Dispatchers planned routes manually using spreadsheets, resulting in suboptimal routing with 32% empty miles. Vehicles experienced frequent breakdowns due to reactive maintenance, costing $480K annually in emergency repairs and downtime. Customer satisfaction suffered from inaccurate ETAs and poor delivery coordination.

The company needed a modern fleet management system with GPS tracking, AI route optimization, predictive maintenance, driver performance monitoring, electronic logging device (ELD) compliance, fuel card integration, and customer portal with real-time tracking. The solution needed mobile apps for drivers, integration with existing ERP (NetSuite), and analytics dashboards for fleet managers.

Our Approach

We implemented a cloud-based fleet management platform using AWS IoT Core for vehicle telemetry, processing 850,000 GPS updates daily from telematics devices. The route optimization engine used a combination of genetic algorithms and machine learning, analyzing historical traffic patterns, delivery time windows, vehicle capacity constraints, and driver hours-of-service regulations to generate optimal routes.

Predictive maintenance models analyzed sensor data including engine diagnostics, tire pressure, brake wear, and oil quality to predict component failures 2-4 weeks in advance. Integration with vehicle OBD-II systems provided real-time fault code monitoring. The mobile driver app built with React Native provided turn-by-turn navigation, digital proof of delivery, HOS (Hours of Service) tracking, and pre/post-trip vehicle inspections.

The Results

The fleet management system transformed operations, saving $1.8M annually in fuel and maintenance costs. AI-powered route optimization reduced average trip time by 24% and enabled dynamic rerouting around traffic incidents. Predictive maintenance algorithms prevented 87% of potential breakdowns through early intervention. Driver safety improved with 62% reduction in harsh braking events, while real-time visibility gave customers accurate ETAs.

AI Route Optimization

The routing algorithm processed 200+ delivery stops daily, optimizing for minimal total miles, fuel consumption, and delivery time windows. Machine learning models trained on 2 years of historical data predicted traffic patterns by time of day, day of week, and weather conditions. Dynamic rerouting automatically adjusted routes when drivers encountered unexpected delays or new rush orders came in. The system achieved 96% on-time delivery rate compared to 73% with manual routing.

Predictive Maintenance & Diagnostics

Telematics devices monitored 150+ vehicle parameters including engine temperature, RPM, fuel level, battery voltage, and tire pressure. Predictive models identified anomalies indicating impending failures. Automated alerts scheduled preventive maintenance before breakdowns occurred, reducing emergency repairs by 87%. Maintenance history tracking optimized service intervals and identified problematic vehicles for early retirement. The system extended average vehicle lifespan from 6.2 to 8.4 years.

Driver Performance & Safety

The system tracked driver behavior including harsh braking, rapid acceleration, speeding, and idle time. Gamification with safety scores and monthly leaderboards encouraged safe driving. Drivers showing concerning patterns received targeted training. The mobile app provided in-cab coaching with real-time alerts for unsafe maneuvers. Safety improvements reduced insurance premiums by 18% and accident frequency by 45%.
