SÖDERTÄLJE, Sweden, Nov. 19,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Complete Fleet
concept is Scania's response to the realities of today's complex
and multi-layered haulage industry. By integrating their entire
fleets and trailers into the full range of Scania's digital
services, hauliers can connect not just their Scania vehicles but
those of other truck manufacturers, too.
Today, Scania introduces its Complete Fleet concept for
digital services. Regardless of vehicle brand or type, all of the
vehicles and trailers in a customer's fleet can now have the same
comprehensive access to Scania's growing range of digital services,
such as positioning, tachograph, performance reports and service
planning. This applies equally to both multiple brands and
mixed-fuel fleets, including gas, biofuel, battery-electric
vehicles, combustion engines, and plug-in electric hybrids.
The Complete Fleet approach will enable transport company owners
to have better visibility, control and energy efficiency for their
whole fleet. It reflects Scania's understanding that many of our
loyal customers also have other vehicle brands in their fleets, as
well as diverse types of truck body applications and trailers.
In addition to this, the European haulage industry today has
significantly more trailers than trucks on the road, with trailers
tending to remain in fleets for much longer than vehicles. In many
cases, the older trailers still used in rolling fleets are not
connected, meaning they are hard to locate and even more difficult
to manage.
Until now, many transport companies requiring a full overview of
their fleet may have chosen to retrofit one particular telematics
system for managing their various vehicles or trailers. It's an
inefficient and costly approach that can mean their primary
transport assets – the tools of their trade - are often in
workshops, when they should be out on the road keeping the supply
chain going and earning their owners money.
Some transport company owners choose to stick with
factory-installed telematics systems that are specific to their
different vehicle brands, but this can make overall fleet planning
a fragmented and inefficient process. Not having connectivity or
overview of part of the fleet has a negative impact on utilisation
and efficiency, and is another complicating factor for overall
transport operations.
Complete Fleet now gives fleet owners a new simpler and
much more effective 'catch-all' option. Better still, the
onboarding of mixed fleets into Scania's digital ecosystem with the
Complete Fleet approach is a simple and quick process which
can be done from within My Scania itself, through existing
data-sharing and other enabling agreements.
It all adds up to customers having the opportunity to connect
and control their entire mixed fleet of diverse trucks and trailers
on a scalable basis, giving them efficient planning for the entire
unit, both truck and trailer, and providing them with complete
overview and transparency.
"Scania wants to be together with our customers throughout their
journey, and the introduction of Complete Fleet is the
latest example of how we can support them with cross-system
compatibility now and in the future," says Andrea Wetterberg, Acting Head of Service
Portfolio and Delivery at Scania.
"By offering a unified and expanding digital service with
consistent data across all vehicle brands and trailers, we are
giving today's haulage company owners transparency and safety,
cost-efficiency and energy savings across their entire fleet."
