Challenge

There were several problems that had to be addressed. Firstly, truck routing had to be automated instead of being done with Excel spreadsheets. Secondly, there was a matter of cargo consolidation. Planning the optimal load for each truck and the optimal transportation for each load. This should also take into account the fuel expenditure and possible idle time. Thirdly, the client needed to monitor their trucks’ position wherever they may be and receive timely updates on the status of the delivery for each load. Finally, the exchange of information and documents between the truckers and the office needed to be sped up.

Solution

Step-by-step, we delivered a full-fledged ERP containing the following modules: - Customer Relations Management - Human Resource Management - Fleet Management - Transportation Management - Vendor Management - Finance & Accounting - Order Management - Customer Module (to let them track their cargo and decrease the workload of the client’s employees) - Mobile App

Results

The new ERP led to improvements in almost all the areas of the customer’s business: - Increased employee productivity by 23% - Decreased fuel expenditure by 31,3% - Faster order completion - Fewer downtime days for trucks - Increased number of orders (customer retention rate Increased from 72% to 94%) As the client keeps expanding his business, we remain their trusted software partner.
