Their Challenge
Logistic companies often deal with a myriad of challenges that can affect their bottomline. Delays, route changes, and any amount of unknown variables can impact the productivity of a route. Our client came to us with the goal to create a route optimization software to create the most fuel efficient route for truck drivers.
Our Solution
Our team worked with the team at Fuel IQ to create a proof-of-concept mobile application and backend to prove their vision was technically feasible.
Our Approach
What Saritasa Did
Backend Development
Our team built two separate backend admin panels for the management of the system. A super admin oversees and controls the entire system, while a dispatch admin manages the jobs themselves. A dispatch agent is responsible for adding trips to the system, including; dates, drivers, trucks, start and end points, and any waypoints needed.
Driver App
Once the trip is created, the driver will get a text notification and a link to the trip. The driver is then able to open a mobile-friendly web version of the system and add in their location and the amount of gas in their truck. Once the trip is calculated, the driver receives another text with their route mapped out.
3rd Party Integrations
The system is integrated with a map that tracks all the gas stations across the country. It also keeps track of the gas prices at each location. Our team built a way to import fuel prices from each location so the system always has the most up-to-date information.
Cost-Saving Algorithms
Once the dispatcher adds a trip into the system, it will automatically calculate the amount of fuel needed to complete the trip and the most cost effective path from point A to point B.
