Goal
Modular telematics platform in the cloud with automated live data analysis.

 

Solution
We developed a highly-available and scalable telematics platform for managing and optimizing vehicle fleets with value-added services. This fail-safe, extendable cloud solution collects data from telematics systems and evaluates it in real time, enabling potential dangers to be identified automatically.

More safety. More success.

Kienzle Automotive

With this key objective in mind, Kienzle Automotive commissioned prodot to develop a highly available telematics portal hosted in the cloud. The design of the portal ensures that it not only evaluates data and events in a customer-based way, regardless of the telematics provider, but also subsequently provides reports or triggers processes.

Alarmportal

The alarm portal provides support in properly transporting hazardous materials, passengers or other valuable goods in compliance with corresponding corporate policies.

For this purpose, all relevant sources of information are automatically read out, aggregated and evaluated in real time. Corresponding rules help to keep an overview of important occurrences regarding driving behavior or the vehicle fleet at all times.

 

  • Fast: The alarm portal continuously synchronizes important data. Within very short response times, the portal issues warnings concerning speeding, drunk driving, unusually strong braking maneuvers or other unusual occurrences.
  • Safe: A highly available infrastructure guarantees compliance with strict service level agreements (SLAs).
  • Expandable: The platform’s fast and easy scalability allows for the monitoring of an increasing number of vehicles and occurrences. The user determines who receives which information and when. The user can also select different types of vehicles and several notification recipients in the system at all times.
  • Reliable: All occurrences and notifications can be traced via SMS and/or email.

Optimizing driving behavior and profitability.

Driver Scoring

As a rating system for driving behavior, Kienzle Driver Scoring actively contributes to a reduction in fuel consumption and to optimized maintenance and repair costs.

The scoring is based on a rating system which takes into account the clients’ individual application and vehicle profiles. Using the Driver Scoring App, the drivers have an insight into their personal scores at all times and can therefore actively adjust their driving behavior accordingly.

 

  • Scores: Each individual’s driving behavior is recorded and evaluated based on a rating system in line with each customer’s specific requirements. The rating takes into account safety, performance and profitability.
  • App: Everyone involved in the continuous improvement receives the data relevant to them. As a result, the drivers have easy access to their individual ratings via the app.

Municipal services

Monitoring of snow clearing and gritting vehicles - this also makes delivering on accountability simple.

 

  • Route planning: Comparison of planned and actual routes
  • Reports: Reports on cleared routes, gritting volumes and employee assignments
  • Information desk: Rapid processing of resident information inquiries by municipal employees


 

Our joint projects have developed into a genuine partnership. prodot understands our requirements, develops solutions accordingly and then implements them efficiently.“
