Challenges
With such a massive spread across the globe, in different geographies, the major challenge that the client was facing was manual processes involved in data management in the back-office Fleet ERP. This was very time-consuming, involved a lot of efforts and was prone to human errors. It was a tough task to manually cull out needed information, at the desired time and location. Even data analytics & reporting to the top management about the latest progress was an almost impossible task.
There was an incessant need for a Warehouse Management App (WMA) to automate these processes by updating and integrating the cargo information and thereby reducing the effort.
Our Solution
Adding immense value to the already existing Fleet ERP system, SPEC INDIA developed an integrated Warehouse Management iPad App, and is completely integrated with the Fleet ERP system. This ensured online updation of the ERP system and higher customer satisfaction.
SPEC also provided a very useful value added feature in this app, called Performance Analytics which gives automated insights about app crashes, connectivity status, error logs, installs & uninstalls etc. Using this feature improvements in user experience, performance and training requirements of users could be derived.
