Commutation and commutation are the back of any economy worldwide. India has already started its journey to upgrade the transportation infra structure especially road links between major cities. The pace at which the developmental work is progressing does not commensurate with the actual requirement. Hence on a macro economic perspective we need competitive and prudent solution to optimally utilise the transportation resources.
Strengths of Indian Transportation Industry are as follows :
- Geographical spread of land
- Better road conditions
- Better network for transportation
- Competitive pricing on road transportation
- Major players into the fray
- Competence on par with global standards
- Acceptance and adaptability to new technology
- Availability of trained man power
Weaknesses of Indian Transportation Industry are as follows :
- Presence of too many unorganised local players
- Non stringent policy on vehicle maintenance as a public service
- Non friendly government policies on crossing borders of interstate travel
- High tax rates
- Unorganised and uneducated man power involved in the industry
There is a major obligation for the IT sector to play a major role in the up gradation logistic activity. Conventional systems are in place or fairly longer time. Transition from the old school of thoughts is definitely a major challenge to the ensuing technology. Understand ability on the adoption of new technology is going to consume more time. But it is still worth the wait since the under lying potention of this transport sector is really very huge.
Apart from the traditional office automation and builing logics behind this sector, we have successfully integrated various other technologies to offer a viable and practical solution. GPS (Global Positioning System) ensures online tracking of vehicles. Management of these mobile assets has become handy. This system facilitates maintaining integrity of data in terms of location and time.
The various reports available on tracking the vehicle such as
- Work hours report
- Work hours summary report for group of vehicle
- Stop hours report
- Vehicle history report
- Hours by states and districts
Apart from tracking of the mobile assets the alerts and reminders for maintenance of the vehicle and the driver is efficiently done through
- Over speed alert
- Coolant temperature alert
- Engine oil alert
- Fuel theft report
- Gradual stop of vehicle
- Alert on harsh brake etc.
These report and alerts are the integral part of the software application where these data are culled out directly in to the system online. Data transfer in the interval of 5 seconds to 120 seconds through GSM module attached to the system give concurrent information about the vehicle.
