If your business is involved in buying products, selling products, or both, your stakeholders have a vested interest in maximizing the efficiency of your transportation networks. Vehicle telematics systems are the way to go: combining technologies to collect vehicle data to derive insights on location, speed, maintenance, and more to improve safety, vehicle performance, and fuel consumption. Drivers can access travel-related dynamics in their vehicles, including weather and road conditions, while dispatchers can provide instructions on routes and daily tasks. Customer service agents can gain insights into delivery status and keep customers informed with real-time visibility. And you can meet sustainability goals by reducing carbon footprint.
SAP has long offered solutions that improve logistics services, global track and trace, and transportation, supply chain, and asset management. In fact, the SAP Digital Vehicle Hub application is a central repository containing vehicle data. It combines master data modeling and data transaction and telemetric capabilities, as well as vehicle lifecycle status, search, and monitoring functionality.
We continue to seek out innovative solutions from partners that incorporate vehicle telematics to integrate with our offerings. Our partners’ solutions are built on SAP Business Technology Platform, which brings together data and analytics, artificial intelligence (AI), application development, automation, and integration in a unified environment.
