Smart Logistics for Automotive

Automotive manufacturers do not have visibility into the location and movement of their vehicles when shipped through ocean and fleet trucks. In addition manufacturers are looking for visibility within their parking lots and service management centers.
Automotive manufacturers are also looking for just in time delivery of parts to ensure smooth manufacturing. The lack of real time knowledge of the eta of the parts leads to increased inventory hold and potentially delayed receipt of parts at the manufacturing facility.

Solution

Bell.One​ innovative Smart Logistics solution can track the vehicles near real time and provide the manufacturer the exact location of their vehicles across the globe. The location can also be provided when the vehicles are on ocean shipment by tracking the vessel.
In addition to in transit vehicle movement Bell.One platform can provide movement details within a service center with workflow times to better estimate service performance.
