WHITE PAPER

Digitalisation heralds a new age for carriers

And the role of the dispatcher receives recognition at last

We know this much is true: while the driver shortage prevails and pressure to achieve a truly sustainable fleet increases, management-level decision makers are preoccupied with devising a strategy that responds to these headline challenges.

We also know from experience that little to no focus is on optimising “true” execution. And that is where some of the largest cost savings can be uncovered – alongside having the right fleet and drivers in place.

Digitising the role of the dispatcher

It’s the dispatcher who remains responsible for factors like mileage and driver hours, and it’s time to give them the tools they need to flourish rather than flounder in a role known for tedious manual tasks that would make anyone’s head spin.

Our brand new white paper deconstructs tradition to shed light on what can be achieved with Nexogen’s Fleet Operator, and what it means for our industry to increase the dispatcher’s span of control by 33%.

A new dawn for itinerary management

It’s a fact that 85% of FTL long haul carriers rely on dispatchers to steer their fleets. Resulting execution plans are feasible, but not optimal. Triggered by this revelation, we threw our efforts at developing an algorithm to find the optimum plan for every trip, based on all known parameters. Fleet Operator is both holistic and dynamic, and focuses on cost savings and efficiencies. Monitoring and recalculating itineraries is fully automated, saving between 25-45% of the dispatcher’s time.

Thanks to Fleet Operator by Nexogen, we are not only planning transportation but also optimising it in terms of the estimated arrival time, route, length, or emissions.

EXCERPT FROM THE WHITE PAPER

Fleet Operator optimises the execution plan of a trip considering all the variables a driver meets along the way. A fleet of 500 trucks will see savings of 150,000EUR per month, and that is without taking into account the 33% increase in the dispatcher’s capacity and productivity.
