Our back office platform is at the heart of your fleet management activities. TX-CONNECT guarantees real-time fleet information, from departure to arrival. Moreover, the platform can be easily integrated into other software and reporting tools - which is an extra, much appreciated plus.

Communication with your trucks and trailers

Every freight planner aims to deploy his fleet to the max. Up-to-date fleet information is a prerequisite to achieve that goal. Our solution? TX-CONNECT. As the platform is connected to the on-board computers in the trucks, it can visualise all truck and trailer data, in real time:

  • Present locations of trucks and trailers, on a scalable map.
  • Routes travelled.
  • Status of the cargo.
  • Estimated time of arrival.

Moreover, automatic alarms are triggered whenever there's a risk that something might go wrong: when it looks like the estimated time of arrival will be exceeded, a truck enters or leaves a predefined area, etc. This total overview offers many possibilities! The freight planner can monitor the fleet at all times, proactively respond to situations and plan the freight orders as efficiently as possible.

Communication with your drivers

By coupling TX-CONNECT to the on-board computer, there are numerous possibilities to communicate with the drivers. Freight planners can send instructions via text messages, inform drivers of predefined routes or destinations, pass on the schedule, warn them of unsafe locations or traffic jams, etc., thereby avoiding expensive misunderstandings. Moreover, the freight planners can monitor the in-vehicle situation in real time too: what is the driver doing, how much driving time is left, why is he waiting, etc. Your guarantee for a faultless, proactive and efficient way of working!

Communication within your company

It's not just your planning team that benefits from the TX-CONNECT information platform. The platform integrates seamlessly with other company-wide software packages, thus facilitating the job of other departments too. The correct registration of hours worked, for example, helps the HR department to accurately calculate the wages. The administrative team will appreciate that the digital format of the signed consignment note is automatically linked to the administrative file, so that they can immediately draft their invoices, etc.

TX-CONNECT is also a perfect basis for detailed reporting: as it records and charts the performance of your company, it can help you pinpoint strengths and weaknesses and find ways to optimise productivity and profitability. Available reports include:

  • Analyses of fuel consumption and driving behaviour will help promote economical and ecological driving.
  • An overview of trends in your drivers' activities (e.g. waiting hours) and the kilometres driven will help deploy your resources to the max.
  • Details of periods of idling and load factor and a comparison of empty and invoiced kilometres will help maximise the deployment of your vehicle park.

Communication with your customers and subcontractors

Ever thought about the benefits of proactively informing your customers? Clients will surely appreciate it and your team will work more relaxed. TX-CONNECT can help. As freight planners gain a real-time overview of all fleet data, they can timely inform your customers about what is happening with their cargo (location, time of arrival, status, etc.) and notify them in case of deviations from the schedule. What's more, customers and subcontractors can even track their own trucks' movements, via the same platform. You can, of course, predetermine the fleet data they have access to.

Working with subcontractors who have no access to the TX-MAX on-board computers? Well, exchanging data with their drivers is made easy with the TX-SMART smartphone application. This mobile tool also allows their activities to be displayed in TX-CONNECT, thus fostering smooth and error-free collaboration.
