Overview
Transportation and logistics are essential components to most enterprises’ productivity, whether through air, ground or sea.
Most companies within the transportation and logistics sector fully understand the inherent competitive operational advantages that can be realized via integration of mobile technologies. The unpredictable nature of fuel costs, labor rates, increased traffic and a changing regulatory environment make it imperative to have dynamic, real-time, visibility and control of mission-critical processes. Increasingly, within the T&L sector, the lack of robust process visibility and control leads to reduced productivity, increased costs, and poor bottom-line business results.
Industry regulations are forcing transportation and logistics organizations to do more with less, therefore, profitability is threatened. Having increased visibility into personnel, equipment, processes and transactions enables enterprises to better support critical operations in real time – improving operational efficiency and performance.
