Transport and logistics
Management of transport processes and the vehicle fleet used for this purpose is an extremely complex, difficult and laborious task.
Many parameters and variables
The employee who performs these tasks must have the knowledge of the current location of vehicles, as well as of:
- Drivers’ working hours
- Availability of vehicles that provide specific transport conditions necessary for maintenance operations
- Fuel consumption
- Economic efficiency of particular transport
- Optimal transport routes
In many cases, the number of variables is increased by unauthorised unloading of liquid or loose cargo, for example. This can be further supplemented with information on driving style (ECO-DRIVING), how the vehicles are operated, or exceeded number of parameters essential from the point of view of transport costs.
Control and coordination
Managing such a large spectrum of variables without a vehicle positioning system that guarantees continuous monitoring can be difficult and, in many cases, impossible. SATIS system allows for control and coordination of almost all the factors that can exist in the transport process management.
Needs of transport process managers
- Vehicle location
- Location of trailers and semi-trailers
- Identification and working hours of drivers
- Control of cargo space conditions
- Control of the technical condition of transport vehicles
- Identification of unauthorized unloading of cargo
- Route optimisation
- Fuel control
- Notification of desired/undesired events
- Cooperation with customers
- Economical driving
- Panic notifications
- Improved timeliness of deliveries
- Driving through accessible transport corridors
