Client Profile:
Amtali Plantation is a tea garden that specializes in producing saplings and operates its own fleet of vehicles for sapling delivery. However, they faced various challenges in monitoring their vehicles and fuel usage. The region where the vehicles operated lacked proper network connectivity, which hindered effective vehicle tracking and monitoring. As a result, the management had no visibility on the vehicle’s location, daily travel distance, fuel consumption, or driver behavior. Additionally, they had no means to track the working hours of the vehicles.
Challenge:
The client faced challenges in accurately tracking and managing their fleet’s daily activities, including route adherence, stop durations, and driver behavior. Manual record-keeping was time-consuming, prone to errors, and lacked real-time insights into fleet operations.
Solution:
The client adopted the Teltonika FMB 920 tracking device integrated with the Bongo IoT platform to enable efficient trip-wise daily activity monitoring and management.
Key Features Implemented:
- Real-Time Tracking: The FMB 920 tracking device provided real-time GPS location data for each vehicle in the fleet.
- Geo-Fencing: Customized geo-fences were set up to define designated areas such as delivery points, depots, and client locations.
- Trip Detection: The solution automatically detected and recorded trips based on ignition and movement events.
- Route Playback: The Bongo IoT platform enabled historical route playback, showcasing the exact paths taken by each vehicle.
- Stop Detection: Stops were automatically recorded when vehicles remained stationary for a predefined duration.
