Renowned ITES Company Reaps Benefits Of AFM Employee Transport Solution

daily workplace commute has become the world’s most serious challenge for workers. There is no denying that technology and transportation systems are constantly developing. People are still having problems getting to and from work on a regular basis. You can ensure that your employees arrive at work safely and that their morale is high enough for them to put their best foot forward in office.

Employee transportation services are frequently included in employee benefits packages and are viewed as valuable incentives. More and more companies are preparing to provide transportation for their employees. Many people, however, are concerned about delegating and managing routes, ensuring employee safety, preparing rosters and keeping overall costs under control. Quite similar was the case with our client, who had faced challenges in managing their employee transportation smoothly, so we came in and assisted them to deal with their biggest issues in the most effective way with our industry-leading solution, Asti Fleet Management (AFM) Solution.

The Client

Our client is one of India’s most renowned ITES companies,, with 6500+ transport users and the transport management team was facing numerous issues in their day-to-day operations related to employee transportation.

The Challenge

Unexpected cost overruns with high fuel expenses and vehicle maintenance costs

• Employee mobility faces a number of issues, many of which, unfortunately, drive up your expenses and squander your resources. If your drivers drive excessively, you will waste more gasoline. The same can be caused by traffic and obstacles, forcing automobiles to take a longer detour. Another reason for resources being wasted is poor management and vehicle management costs. High costs, in the end, have an influence on your bottom line and lower your profitability. Our client faced similar issues with costs increasing day by day.

Dissatisfied employees

• Oftentimes, your employees are not satisfied with the transportation management as there are delays in transportation or the unavailability of vehiclwhichthis makes it hard for them to commute effectively.

Overload of transport desk personnel

• When handling the overall requests and issues, the desk personnel at our client’s offices were overwhelmed with the huge number of coordination tasks, including attending to queries, solving employee issues, etc.

Poor visibility on the usage of fleet

• Maintaining the timeliness of your fleet is a difficult task. Maintaining pickup or drop-off timings is also a difficult chore. A single automobile running late might have a cascading effect on your entire transportation system and the same happened with our client, where they had very low to zero visibility on their fleet usage.

It is difficult to plan optimized routes & tedious roster preparation based on vehicle availability and employee transport needs for different routes

• It’s a difficult undertaking to figure out the optimal path for your fleet. You must evaluate a number of aspects, including pickup times and locations, driver availability, vehicle selection for certain routes, and route assignment to drivers. As a result, manually planning their routes increased the complexity of the process for our client and had an impact on process optimization.
