Project

Overview

This project focused on building a comprehensive logistics management platform to streamline operations for a logistics company. The platform is designed to optimize the entire process, from creating tasks for truck drivers (via assigned tickets), tracking time, digitalizing paperwork, and generating valuable analytics. By automating and simplifying these key processes, the platform reduces manual work, improves operational efficiency, and provides better visibility into logistics operations.

The solution includes a web-based admin panel for user and client management, ticket assignments, and analytics, and a mobile app for truck drivers that allows them to manage their tickets, track time, provide GPS location updates, and handle e-signatures and documentation. The mobile app was built natively for Android (using Kotlin) and iOS (using Swift), ensuring optimal performance and seamless integration with the drivers’ workflow.

Problems & Solutions

Challenge

The project  faced several challenges:

1

Complex Workflow Management

Coordinating tasks, tracking driver locations, and maintaining clear communication between drivers and the admin panel was essential.

2

Time Tracking & Efficiency

The logistics company needed a way to monitor time spent on deliveries and other tasks in real-time to enhance productivity.

3

Paperwork Digitalization

Transitioning from a paper-based process to digital workflows for document management, including e-signatures and photo confirmations.

4

Analytics & Reporting

Providing insights into operational performance with real-time analytics for better decision-making.

Solution

Sentysoft addressed these challenges by:

1

Building a Web-Based Admin Panel

We created a robust backend using Python, enabling the admin team to manage users, clients, tickets, and workflows efficiently.

2

Native Mobile Apps for Drivers

The mobile app was developed in Kotlin (Android) and Swift (iOS) to provide optimal performance. The app includes real-time GPS tracking, ticket management, time tracking, and e-signature capabilities, allowing drivers to work efficiently.

3

Digitalizing Paperwork

Automated the document generation process by allowing drivers to submit e-signatures, photo confirmations, and create auto-generated documents for each job.

4

Comprehensive Analytics Tools

Integrated analytics in the admin panel to provide insights into driver performance, task completion times, and overall logistics efficiency.
