Real-Time Logistics Monitoring System
for Safer Logistics
Business Challenges
The client transports hazardous gases in cylinders and tankers using trucks of varying capacities. Given the inherent risks of handling such materials, ensuring real-time monitoring and proactive risk management during transportation was a high priority. A centralized Transport Operation Centre (TOC) was established to monitor safety-related events in collaboration with transport agencies and GPS providers. However, the legacy monitoring systems in place presented several challenges:
- Tracking and analysing data from over 5,000 vehicles daily
- Ensuring 100% accuracy across multiple GPS data sources
- Meeting SLA requirements of under one minute for detecting fatigue and distraction
- Managing centralized master data effectively
- Generating KPI dashboards for real-time comparisons of incident counts
With high-risk logistics, every second, and every signal matters.
Solution
To modernize the TOC operations, we developed a robust digital solution with real-time capabilities, tailored for use by TOC agents, supervisors, and administrators. The solution included:
A web-based interface for live monitoring of transport events
Automated notifications to escalate incidents to supervisors for immediate action
Route risk profiling to help avoid high-risk travel routes
A centralized dashboard displaying fatigue, distraction, harsh braking, harsh acceleration, and over-speeding incidents
Driver risk profiling based on event history, enabling personalized safety training
A cockpit view with real-time reporting for proactive decision-making
