Jonathan Bates , Chief Product Officer , Powerfleet and transportation management systems have become not only widespread but almost essential , there ’ s now an emphasis to transition from simply collecting data to effectively leveraging it for tangible business change and improvement .
It ’ s no surprise that the transportation industry faces a problem of an abundance of disconnected data , leading to many issues , including significant threats to organisational health and productivity . Without effective processing mechanisms , this overload leads to reduced profitability , asset inefficiency and decision-making challenges . Additionally , the use of multiple suppliers and siloed platforms has caused increased frustration due to the inability to interpret the volume of data .
All of this points to the dire need for businesses to integrate and harmonise their data to be successful . Companies require information and insights across various aspects of their operations , from mobile assets to personnel and business processes . These data silos destroy organisational effectiveness . In order to consolidate these diverse data sources into one accessible platform , a single solution and partner is paramount . One platform can transform business operations and performance through integrating , harmonising , simplifying , and actioning data intelligence across operational and executive-level stakeholders , throughout the entire supply chain from start to finish .
