Driverless vehicle logistics and fleet yard operation - accelerating transformation towards digital operations
Managing an outbound vehicle logistics chain or a vehicle fleet yard presents a formidable challenge in today’s automotive sector. As thousands of vehicles journey towards dealerships or customers, passing through distribution centers, harbors, and dealer lots, efficiency becomes key. This is similarly true for rental car companies managing vast fleets on their premises.
Despite many processes within vehicle logistics being digitized and optimized, a significant inefficiency persists. Numerous drivers traverse these areas, locating and moving vehicles to their next stage in the logistics chain. This activity contributes to additional costs from damages, waiting times, walking distances, and space requirements, signaling that today’s vehicle logistics operations are far from the pinnacle of efficiency.
The current shortage of drivers and lack of necessary skills further impedes the essential transformation towards seamless, transparent, and rapid vehicle movement. It’s important to note that autonomously driving cars in the future are not the standalone solution for these challenges, as they will require guidance to navigate the complexities of congested logistic environments.
