Client Profile
Our client is a US-based technology startup serving the transportation industry with safety and compliance solutions. They offer cloud-based solutions that help fleet operators decrease downtime and improve performance.
Challenges: Manual Compliance and Low Visibility
- Compliance Risk: Manual logging of driver service hours and vehicle mileage was time-consuming, error-prone, and failed to meet regulatory requirements (e.g., ELD standards).
- Operational Inefficiency: Manual processes for inspection logs, repair tracking, and document management reduced visibility into actionable data.
- Scaling Difficulty: The lack of a digitized, automated platform meant operational inefficiencies and compliance risks intensified as the client’s business grew.
QBurst Solution: ELD-Compliant Digital Platform
We developed a fully customizable and quick-to-deploy fleet management platform, utilizing Java, Kotlin, Swift, and a microservices architecture (Spring Boot, React, AWS Cloud) to digitize and automate critical transportation and logistics workflows.
- Full Digital Ecosystem: Delivered web and mobile applications (iOS/Android) for geographical tracking, electronic service hour logging (ELD compliance), and digital document storage for regulatory purposes.
- Integrated Workflows: Seamlessly integrated eDVIRs (Electronic Driver Vehicle Inspection Reports) with the mechanic repair process and automated work order creation based on inspection/diagnostic inputs.
- Compliance Simplification: Simplified DOT audit preparation, accident investigations, and claims management through automated data capture and readily accessible digital documentation.
Technical Highlights
- Hardware Integration: Connects with various truck-data port adapters via Bluetooth (BLE), following J1939 and OBD2 protocols to send parsed logs to the servers.
- Automated Logging: Electronic logging automatically captures and updates driver duty status based on engine activity and vehicle movement detection.
- Behavior Monitoring: Monitors driver behavior (harsh braking, speeding) to generate a Driver Score.
- GPS Optimization: Features GPS-enabled route optimization and real-time fleet tracking using Google Maps.
- Financial Reporting: Compiles fuel tax information by jurisdiction to ease quarterly filings.
Impact
- Fuel Efficiency: Optimized route planning and vehicle maintenance tracking led to a 13% reduction in fuel consumption.
- Cost Savings: Improved safety and compliance processes resulted in a 6% reduction in insurance premiums.
- Fraud Prevention: Enhanced tracking and data accuracy reduced total claims resulting from fraud by 15%.
- Operational Streamlining: Digitized documentation, accident scene management, and real-time alerts ensured 'on-time service' and quicker process closures, replacing error-prone manual logs.
