Boosting Efficiency and Compliance with Stratum's Transport Management System

In the fast-paced world of logistics and transportation, staying ahead of the curve is crucial. For businesses managing fleets and assets, regulatory compliance and efficient documentation are not just operational necessities—they are critical to success. Stratum's Transport Management System (TMS) offers a comprehensive solution that transforms these challenges into opportunities for growth and efficiency.

Streamlining Regulatory Compliance

Regulatory compliance can be a daunting task, with numerous rules and standards to adhere to. Stratum's TMS simplifies this process by automating the tracking and reporting of compliance-related documentation. Here's how:

Automated Documentation: Our TMS ensures that all necessary documents, such as vehicle maintenance records and driver logs, are automatically tracked and updated. This reduces the risk of non-compliance and the associated penalties.

Drivers and Fleet: Stratum's TMS offers comprehensive management tools for both drivers and fleet. It ensures that driver qualifications, certifications, and hours of service are monitored and updated in real-time. Fleet managers can easily track vehicle inspections, maintenance schedules, and compliance with safety standards, ensuring that both drivers and vehicles are always road-ready.

Available any time: Get the information off of spreadsheets and out of people's heads. All you need in Stratum is at your fingertips. Use clean dashboards and custom filters, see the big-picture or fine-details. Keep your data accessible for everyone in the team.

Reports, Notifications and Alerts: The system provides real-time alerts for upcoming compliance deadlines, ensuring that nothing slips through the cracks. This proactive approach helps businesses stay ahead of regulatory requirements.

Audit Readiness: With all compliance data centralized and easily accessible, preparing for audits becomes a straightforward process. The TMS generates comprehensive reports that can be quickly reviewed and submitted to regulatory bodies.

Optimizing using Data

Your fleet is one of the biggest investments you make. But are you getting the most out of it? Stratum will gather your fleet utilization data, meaning you can analyze vehicle usage, identify underutilized vehicles, and optimize routes to reduce fuel and maintenance costs. The result? Increased efficiency, reduced costs, and a better bottom line.

Utilization Analysis: Analyze the utilization of your fleet to identify underused assets and optimize their deployment. This helps in balancing workloads and improving overall efficiency.

Margin Calculation: Stratum's TMS provides real-time margin calculations, allowing you to see the profitability of each trip. By understanding your margins, you can make informed decisions to maximize profits and reduce unnecessary expenses.

Cost per Mile: Track and analyze the cost per mile for each vehicle in your fleet. This metric helps you understand the true cost of operations, enabling you to identify areas where you can cut costs and improve efficiency.

Cost of Ownership: Stratum's TMS offers comprehensive insights into the total cost of ownership for your fleet. This includes acquisition costs, maintenance, fuel, and other operational expenses. By having a clear picture of these costs, you can make strategic decisions to optimize your fleet's performance and longevity.

Enhanced Transparency

Transparency is vital for effective fleet management. Traditional methods can make it difficult to maintain a clear overview of fleet operations. Stratum's TMS enhances transparency in several ways:

Centralized Information Hub: All relevant data is stored in a single, centralized system. This means no more sifting through piles of paperwork or multiple spreadsheets to find the information you need.

Comprehensive Reporting: Users can generate detailed reports on various aspects of fleet management, such as maintenance history, compliance status, and utilization rates. These reports provide valuable insights that can inform strategic decisions.

Audit Trails: The system maintains a clear audit trail of all activities, making it easy to track who performed what actions and when. This is particularly useful for compliance and accountability purposes.

Seamless Integration: The TMS integrates seamlessly with other business systems, ensuring that data flows smoothly across your organization. This reduces duplication of effort and minimizes the risk of errors.
