How HERE data can help transport companies

Fleet management and delivery teams want to ensure they’re operating their vehicles at maximum efficiency and have visibility of their fleet across an entire road network.

There are many costly considerations when operating a fleet. Businesses need to factor in meeting delivery windows of service level agreements and permissible time limits, while maintaining the safety of their drivers and their business’ bottom line.

To manage a fleet’s efficiency, businesses need to access detailed information about road infrastructure, regulations and zone restrictions, and dynamic traffic data.  HERE’s Location Services and Map Data help to improve business outcomes and support improved driver safety.

This includes information such as height, weight and speed restrictions and road information such as grade, elevation, curvature or roughness, dynamic traffic and hazard warnings, building footprints for pickup and drop off, and point addresses for more precise routing. 

This information can then be integrated into enterprise apps that fuel internal business operations to manage complex fleets with varying vehicle sizes and cargo, driver licensing and experience, service level agreements, and driver hours and rest time regulations.

Businesses can create innovative solutions that enable informed, data-driven decisions to help manage their fleets.

Last mile service and delivery 

HERE technology in transport

Between 40 - 50% of the total costs to a business making a delivery occurs in the last mile.

To gain customers loyalty and boost satisfaction, businesses want to ensure customers have a frictionless tracking experience and on-time delivery.

To achieve this, HERE Technologies offers Last Mile, an end-to-end application for optimising the planning, dispatching, and completion of deliveries so urban fleet operators can improve efficiency and customer satisfaction. HERE Last Mile includes routing, dispatching, and turn-by-turn mobile navigation in one product, minimising deployment and development time.

HERE Last Mile provides near real-time route optimisation based on job priority and driver skill, allowing a flexible reaction to changing conditions and customised routes based on the fleet’s special requirements.

Further, businesses can utilise HERE Technologies’ real-time and historical traffic data to minimise delivery costs to the business based on petrol consumption, kilometres and toll efficiencies.

Inefficient management of a traffic network can cost both commuters and businesses time and money. Traffic management teams are on the field to assess areas and traffic flow based on historical and real-time data and make decisions to minimise congestion and safety risks.

With so many moving parts across a road network, HERE helps networks operations managers, in transport management teams, draw in third-party data sources make fast and informed decisions to get traffic flowing at an optimal speed. These third-party data sources include data from traffic sensors, distress calls, social media, video feeds and officials.

A challenge for remote teams is when there have been changes to a road network or areas unmapped. HERE offer users the ability to extend the HERE base map and add rural roads or unmapped areas in only a few clicks.

We love working with organisations who set ambitious goals & see location technology and spatial data for the massive opportunity it presents in business.
