Distribution

Goods arrive when the van doesn’t break down on the route.

In distribution, a van off the road means customers not delivered, a route redone and a day lost. GoDrive CarBox shows you where each van is and how it is doing, and warns you in time when one needs a garage.

The problems it solves

• Unplanned stops

  Small but steady deviations are spotted before they become breakdowns on the route.

• Long routes

  GPS location and optimised routes shorten the day’s trips and show each vehicle’s real mileage.

• Guesswork servicing

  You know which vehicles need attention now and which can wait, so you book the garage without taking healthy vehicles off the road.

• No backup ready

  When a vehicle has to go into the garage, you know in time and can move its routes to another one.

• History for every vehicle

  Faults and diagnostics stay in the history, useful with the garage and at resale.

How it works

The black box plugs into the OBD-II port, reads the engine parameters and the GPS position and sends them to the cloud, where each engine is compared with vehicles of the same make and model. A confirmed deviation becomes an alert in the app and by email, and with the Business plan the trip to a specialised garage can be arranged ahead of time.
