Baseline
Measure current volume, time, cost, failure, service, risk and revenue at the workflow level.
P10 · Implementation blueprint · Mappls Fleet Command
Logistics Fleet, Cold Chain & Telematics
Vehicle, route, temperature and delivery exceptions are visible too late, causing leakage, SLA failures and high control-room effort.
01 · Target operating outcome
Define the change before choosing the technology
Which exception—delay, deviation, idling, pilferage or temperature breach—costs you most per month?
Business case: lower fuel/idling/deviation, reduced spoilage/pilferage, higher asset utilisation and fewer SLA penalties. Build per vehicle/trip/lane.
Target
Data uptime; exception precision; response/action rate; quantified savings/avoidance; integration and rollout plan.
02 · Solution architecture
One connected flow from source data to operational action
GPS/IoT tracking, route and trip management, temperature sensors, geofences, control tower, driver app, alerts, analytics and APIs. We start with the single most expensive exception, prove its economics on representative lanes and then scale the control tower.

Map, customer, asset, sensor and enterprise data

The shared Mappls identity is separated from application membership. A user can be an administrator in one app, an analyst in another and a viewer elsewhere.
04 · Data and integration
Connect the minimum information needed to make the workflow real
Location foundation
Map, road, address, place, imagery, boundary and terrain layers appropriate to the decision.
Enterprise context
Customer, order, asset, vehicle, incident, task, sensor or transaction records from systems of record.
Integration pattern
APIs, SDKs, secure batch, streaming events, webhooks, files or on-premise integration depending on architecture.
Security and control
Least-privilege RBAC, audit events, encrypted transport, tenant separation and cloud, private or offline deployment.

Product details05 · Proof of value
Use a bounded implementation to answer the scale decision
4–6 week 25–100 vehicle/lane pilot with baseline, live alerts and weekly value review.
- Confirm data, geography, users and workflow: Fleet/shipments? Existing devices? Exception frequency and cost? Control-room staffing? TMS/ERP integrations? Decision owner?
- Configure Mappls Fleet Command for the selected role set
- Run baseline and intervention scenarios with real stakeholder reviews
- Evaluate agreed criteria: Data uptime; exception precision; response/action rate; quantified savings/avoidance; integration and rollout plan.
- Package production scope and commercial model: Per asset/month + hardware/sensors + connectivity + setup/API; enterprise minimum commitment.
