-commerce in Indonesia is expected to grow rapidly in the next few years, with Bloomberg reporting that a fourth of Indonesians are set to come into contact with an online business by 2020.
Unfortunately, there is no accompanying growth in logistics to support online businesses. Indonesia is ranked 63rd on the World Bank's logistics performance index, which shows that the efficiency of supply chain logistics in Indonesia is low.
To increase the effectiveness and efficiency of logistical services, companies need smart systems like NEXTfleet. NEXTfleet is a fleet management solution based on the internet-of-things (IOT) technology offered by Indonesian telecommunications firm Indosat Ooredoo.
Basically, the system helps optimize the material distribution process from planning, scheduling and task division to accurate and real-time long-distance fleet monitoring using mobile applications and other IOT devices.
The system is suitable for industries such as logistics, supply chain management, manufacturing, transportation and retail.
Thanks to all the conveniences allowed by the system, your business could make its operational costs more efficient while increasing productivity at the same time. NEXTfleet optimizes your business’ logistics process by utilizing its four features. The four features are:
You could monitor many aspects of your distribution activities by making use of the system. The fleet manager dashboard could supervise delivery planning, order placement and dispatching, order tracking, fleet tracking, messaging, delivery report, fuel consumption, fleet performance analytics, situation alerts, driver behavior as well as the route taken by the driver through the system.
Drivers could also make use of an application designed by the system to provide them with information on the distribution task currently assigned to them, activity updates, manifest checks, route navigation to destinations, customer signatures upon receiving the goods as well as order and delivery management.
Customers, meanwhile, could make use of the system’s application to check their order placement as well as track the delivery progress of their order.
Thanks to all the aforementioned features, business operators could reduce operational costs by decreasing fuel and vehicle maintenance with carefully planned distribution activities as well as optimum route selection.
The operators could also increase productivity by increasing their distribution capacity by optimizing available fleets. The system also guarantees a better customer experience by allowing customers to easily determine shipping schedules as well as track fleet position on a real-time basis.
