A unified telemetry and routing platform replacing four disconnected fleet tools with one real-time system dispatchers actually trust.

// 01The Challenge

Problem

Dispatchers were toggling between four separate systems — GPS tracking, route planning, driver communication, and reporting — none of which agreed with each other in real time. Decisions were being made on data that was already stale.

Strategy

We consolidated telemetry ingestion into a single real-time pipeline first, before touching any user-facing tool, so every downstream system — routing, the driver app, the ops dashboard — would finally be working from the same live state.

// 02Architecture

A telemetry engine ingests GPS data from every vehicle in near real time and fans it out to a route optimizer, the driver-facing mobile app, and an operations dashboard, replacing what used to be four independently-polled data sources with one consistent stream.

// 03Outcome

Solution

The route optimizer now recalculates against live traffic and vehicle state instead of static plans, and dispatchers see the same real-time picture as drivers in the field — closing a gap that used to cost hours every week.

Impact

Fuel costs dropped as routes stopped being planned against stale data, dispatch decisions sped up dramatically, and for the first time, every team was looking at the same numbers.
