AI has marked its presence in all the fields of our life. Whether it is booking tickets for a journey or joining online classes, you will find the presence of
artificial intelligence in every task. The impact of artificial intelligence in our day-to-day tasks can be realized from the fact that it has made its entrance in those sectors that till now were controlled by human interference. Let us for instance talk about the business of fleet management.
Till a few years back the business of fleet management was the most difficult business to manage. The main reason was the difficulty in tracking the drivers operating different vehicles. With the advent of AI, managing fleets has become quite easier. Depending on your needs an AI development agency will develop an application to manage your fleets. The benefits of using artificial intelligence in fleet management business are:
1. Data-Driven Decisions: The most common problem faced by fleet operators is the absence of data related to drivers and the vehicle driven by them. The delay in delivering packages, and excuses like traffic jams and road conditions by drivers increased the cost of operations. With an AI-powered application, the driving data start collected as soon as the driver departs from the depot. The use of this technique helps in tracking the location of the vehicle and understanding the reasons for any delay due to traffic, environmental or other conditions. This also helps in determining the time of the next assignments that would be assigned to fleet drivers.
2. Visibility of Fleet Movement: As the whole process is automated and digitalized it is easier to track the position of the vehicle. Based on this information the operators can speculate the time by which their vehicles will reach their destinations and return. Based on this analysis they can predict the exact time by which their delivery vehicles will deliver goods to their clients. This helps in increasing the accountability of operators and also avoids the circumstances of making useless excuses.
3. Increases the Productivity of Drivers: As drivers know that their activities are being tracked they do not make useless delays and perform their duties on time. This helps in increasing their productivity. They get enough time to relax. At the same time, they are in a position to go for extra rounds. This helps in increasing their salary.
4. Lower cost of Operations: When the operators can track the position of their vehicles, the drivers are alert and they avoid useless delays. This controls the cost of operations.
Conclusion: Today the use of
artificial intelligence is flourishing at dynamic speed and making its space in the fields that till now were operated by human beings. The business of fleet management is one such business that mainly required human interference to manage it properly. But as it suffered from lots of drawbacks the use of AI is offering surprising benefits to its operators and now more and more fleet operators are trying to exploit its benefits.
