Logistics fleet compliance and tracking

By Micah Ondiwa, Senior Software Engineer 1 min read

Load records, axle load compliance, vehicle tracking and trip data help transporters avoid penalties and protect their vehicles.

For transporters, overloading means fines, delays at weighbridges and faster wear on expensive vehicles. Data helps prevent it.

Weigh before departure

Weigh loads at the origin — on site weighbridges or axle scales — and record axle group weights as well as gross mass.

Link records to trips

Associate each weighing with the vehicle, driver, customer and route. A single trip record becomes the source of truth for compliance and billing.

Track vehicles

GPS tracking shows routes, stops and timing, supporting planning and evidence of compliance.

Analyse patterns

Reports can reveal which customers, loaders, products or routes are associated with overloading, so the cause can be addressed.

Integrate systems

Connect weighing, tracking and dispatch with invoicing so information is entered once.

Use alerts

Alert dispatchers before an overloaded vehicle leaves the yard.
