In this era of digitalisation, the demand for efficient delivery is increasingly high. Logistics companies in Indonesia must be capable of organising more efficient operational workflows, particularly during peak periods—when high order volumes truly put delivery management capabilities to the test. This is why logistics companies require a fleet management system, which effectively helps enhance delivery efficiency.
1. Efficient Route Planning
On a fleet management system platform like Cartrack’s Fleet Web, you can plan routes based on trip history and assign them to specific delivery vehicles. Simply select an efficient route, configure route notifications, and schedule it for your chosen vehicle. Routes can be automatically scheduled for future days, maintaining the same vehicle and timing. In addition to route planning, Cartrack’s Fleet Web includes a “What’s Nearby?” feature to handle situational delivery needs. This feature allows you to identify the vehicle closest to and fastest at reaching the destination, enabling more efficient task assignment.
2. Digitalisation of Delivery Assignments
Minimise phone calls and manual paperwork in delivery assignments by using specialised tools for assignment and delivery management. One such example is Cartrack Delivery, which enables drivers to receive tasks, update task completion statuses, and submit proof of delivery—such as photos or digital signatures—via their mobile phones. Additionally, the system includes barcode scanning capabilities to track outgoing stock and verify that the items carried by the driver match the assigned order. These details are entered when creating a task and include barcodes, descriptions, addresses, item quantities, scheduled start and end times, task sequences or routes, and service rates. Beyond making delivery assignments more efficient, this digitisation also accelerates the processing of delivery invoices.
3. Real-Time Route Monitoring
A GPS-based fleet management system enables you to monitor vehicles and their routes in real-time. Additionally, you receive real-time notifications based on the settings you have configured in the route planner. Cartrack’s Fleet Web platform offers a range of selectable route notifications, including route start, route end, route deviation, return to route, route cancellation due to deviation, slow route progress, route not started, and late completion. You can choose to receive all or specific key route notifications via email or SMS.
4. Visibility for the Goods Recipient
Recipients need certainty regarding their shipments, such as knowing the real-time location of their orders. This visibility is crucial, especially when the recipient is a distributor or reseller who is also accountable to their own customers. This is why a GPS-based fleet management system is essential; it allows recipients to track shipment locations in real-time. With Cartrack, you can share vehicle location links using the "share location" feature. You can set the link's validity period to align with the scheduled delivery timeframe—for instance, extending it up to three days. This feature also alleviates the workload on your customer service team, who might otherwise have to handle a high volume of calls and inquiries regarding delivery progress.
5. Automated Delivery Status Notifications
In addition to real-time location tracking, automated notifications should be sent to customers so they do not need to constantly check the status of their orders. You can provide this service to your customers by utilising the geofencing feature found in GPS-based fleet management systems. Automated notifications can be sent via email or SMS when a vehicle enters the destination area. When customers are informed that an order is approaching, they can prepare themselves or the drop-off site accordingly. This leads to more efficient unloading and allows drivers to complete their daily deliveries faster.
