Internet Of Things

With the growing number of fleet vehicles, the increasing road freight traffic, and environmental pollution level all over the world, it becomes a challenge for fleet owners to keep watch of their fleets. Hence IoT seems to come into the picture revolutionizing the future of fleet management and is set to make a set benchmark for this sector. Sabre is a software and technology company that powers the global travel industry. The company is partnered with airlines, hoteliers, agencies and other travel partners to retail, distribute and fulfill travel. Sabre India power mobile apps, airport check-in kiosks, online travel sites, airline and hotel reservation networks, travel agent terminals, aircraft and crew scheduling systems, and scores of other solutions. While sharing her thought with Nitisha from BISinfotech; Priya Dhandapani, Director – Software Engineering, Sabre Bengaluru Global Capability Centre (GCC) elaborates the pros and cons of IoT in the fleet industry. Kindly highlight the value of IoT in fleet management IoT (Internet of Things) is going through a rapid transformation, and its advanced capabilities make it an ideal solution for fleet management. IoT integration will ensure compliance, improve efficiency, reduce costs, gather meaningful data about the vehicle – like current location, route, live traffic information, fuel usage, time spent in driving etc., to accelerate decision-making. Some of the benefits of leveraging IoT for fleet management include real-time analytics, improved driver safety, better fuel management, planned and timely vehicle maintenance, improved delivery quality and speed etc. The data collected from IoT devices can help Identify products that are in high demand, localize the storage and supply thereby decreasing the overall delivery cost. It also lowers fuel usage, which in turn reduces the fleet’s carbon footprint. With the emergence of future tech like autonomous/self-driving vehicles, IoT technology can help drastically improve the ability of these vehicles to better anticipate imminent threats and risks present in the environment.
