Looking to Increase Your Transport Fleet's Efficiency?
Productivity in transportation not only impacts the efficiency of operations, but also the sustainability and competitiveness of the entire industry. In this blog, we explore how metrics can transform transportation into an operational advantage. Keep reading and discover how to boost your fleet's efficiency!
A transportation productivity indicator is a quantitative measure used to evaluate the efficiency and performance of activities related to the transportation of materials or people. These indicators provide information on various key aspects of the transportation process and allow companies to analyze and improve operational, logistical and economic performance.
The transportation industry is an essential part of the economy, facilitating the movement of goods, services and people. Productivity in transportation has become a key factor in achieving an efficient supply chain and sustainable mobility. In this area, productivity indicators are crucial tools for evaluating performance, identifying areas for improvement and making informed strategic decisions.
Key indicators for an efficient fleet:
- ✅ Transit time: It is a crucial metric in logistics and transportation that measures the total time it takes for a load to move from a point of origin to a destination point. This time includes not only time in motion, but also waiting, loading and unloading times, and any other delay that may occur during the journey.
- ✅ Vehicle utilization index: It is a metric that measures the efficiency with which a vehicle is being used in terms of its cargo capacity. It is calculated as the percentage of the total vehicle capacity that is used in a trip or given time period.
- ✅ Cost per ton-kilometer: It is a fundamental metric in cargo transportation that measures the economic efficiency of the operation. It indicates how much it costs to transport one ton of cargo over one kilometer.
- ✅ Kilometers traveled per liter of fuel: It is a metric that measures fuel efficiency in a vehicle. It indicates how many kilometers a vehicle can travel with one liter of fuel.
- ✅ CO2 emissions index: It measures the efficiency of fuel consumption and the environmental impact of transportation. Lower CO2 emissions mean greater sustainability and responsible management.
At MIGTRA we use information that companies already have, such as: surveillance camera images, GPS devices, front cameras, third eye, dispatch guides, sales or planning information.
This data is processed by artificial intelligence engines and other proprietary algorithms, capable of identifying opportunities for operational improvement and predicting situations that can threaten the safety of the transportation system and operations.
Some examples of the above: falls from height, human-machine interaction, prohibited zones, non-use of PPE, non-compliance with safety regulations, speeding, driving fatigue, microsleep, distracted driving, bottlenecks, waiting times in product loading and unloading processes and other operational resources.
