DP Logistics launches TruckBuddy

DPL team at TruckBuddy launch  

Leveraging technology to provide bespoke, cost effective options, DP Logistics Ltd. launched TruckBuddy, a web solution that offers smart transport solutions. 

With the expertise DP Logistics has garnered over the past two decades in the transport business, the platform is customised for multi industry verticals such as apparel, FMCG, industrial, electronics, etc.

Technology takes the pain out of finding, evaluating, and negotiating with transport suppliers on a case by case basis and the extensive manual work involved in planning, monitoring, generating of reports and similar tasks.

DP Logistics is equipped with a 24/7 monitoring control center to ensure the cargo is delivered to the destination in a safe manner, meeting the expectations of its valuable customers. Company specific report templates and dashboards facilitate decisions based on data and real time GPS tracking and alert system ensures the security of the cargo until it reaches the destination. 

DPL also has the added edge of being able to leverage on its own extensive fleet which includes both general purpose and specific vehicles such as cement carriers, automotive carriers, and specialised project equipment to provide customers with greater options.

Given the extremely challenging times faced by customers due to increasing freight/transportation costs DP Logistics has been focusing on ways and means of reducing expenses, while increasing efficiency and this is the second such initiative introduced in the recent past which leverages on technology. The first was the introduction of Robotic Process Automation (RPA) to its 3PL and warehouse operations.

A David Pieris Group company, DP Logistics covers the entire spectrum of logistics and supply chain management solutions including transportation, 3rd Party Logistics (3PL), warehouse management and freight forwarding.
