Client since: December 2019

Logicorp.inc Logistics is a major trucking company that plays a prominent role in the US and Canadian logistics market.

The company required a digital truck management platform to be built from the ground up as they wanted to move away from utilizing a costly and inefficient third-party platform. They also wanted to sell the final TMS platform as a SAAS service.   


Services Used

  • Discovery stage
  • Product analysis
  • UX/UI design
  • Web, Mobile and SAAS development
  • Test
  • Amazon Web Services Cloud


Technology Used

  • ReactJS
  • Laravel
  • PostgreSQL
  • Swift
  • Kotlin

Work Approach

Our work approach was iterative and opened up consistent communication between our team and the client throughout the development of the project.

We progressed according to the SCRUM method and also utilized 20 two-week sprints, with clear tasks and deadlines. This ensured our work was at a good technical level, as well as including efficiency in the prioritization of various tasks.


Challenge

Our team faced a system challenge when the iOS driver app was not able to support image downloads in the background. The in-house implementation of this proved challenging for the developers.


Solution

The developers were able to come up with a solution that ensured the app runs smoothly on all iOS mobile systems without the addition of significant costs.

 
Results

The new TMS doesn't just replicate the functionality of dispatch platforms. Today it has evolved into an IT ecosystem that combines logistics digital and CRM capabilities. In order to market the TMS, a lot of time was spent on SaaS and making it work. A select few businesses, including brokers and carriers, were able to use the system due to the SaaS itself. The orders from the brokers were placed on a shared list for pickup by various carriers. Additionally, there is interaction with the American database of brokerage firms, from which you can obtain TMS data.

The platform has relieved company management, simplified the work of dispatchers and drivers, and reduced costs. Supervising the work of the drivers has become much easier as the number of errors and bureaucratic oversights has decreased significantly, as well as the number of fines.

With the new IT-platform at its disposal, our client entered the TMS-software market, as originally planned. Today they sell this solution to their partners by subscription, which has allowed them to quickly recoup investment in the development and break even.
