Transport operations

Less paperwork and uncertainty, more productivity and efficiency. The transport operations services in Volvo Connect are designed to help you stay proactive and make faster, smarter decisions. You’ll gain access to real-time truck tracking and, for electric trucks, a tool to predict the range and energy use.

What are transport operations services?

Transport operations services, such as Positioning and Range and Route, help you streamline your transport planning with real-time truck positioning, live driver data, and full asset tracking. For electric trucks, simulate routes to predict range and energy use—making every assignment smarter and more efficient.

Plan transport assignments faster

Real-time positioning of your trucks and detailed information about your drivers help you plan transport assignments faster.

Track vehicles in real time

A unit tracking function offers a comprehensive overview of your assets’ positions.

Predict the energy use of electric trucks

Simulate your electric truck’s route to predict its range and energy use.

Positioning

The Positioning service in Volvo Connect makes it easy for you to plan transport assignments, keep track of your trucks and find free capacity. With a map-based service, you can see everything from the real-time position of a truck to detailed information about the driver, truck speed, load and type of vehicle.

Always informed

Get continuous updates on speed, driver status and expected arrival times. And because truck positioning is recorded, you can review a route at any time.

Help in choosing the right truck

With real-time information, you can decide on which truck is best suited for a new assignment and who is the closest to the pick-up location. It also shows you who is most suited to reach a delivery destination within their work shift.

Complete overview of your assets

Keep track of your trailers, service vans and containers with the unit tracking function. The function is included in all Volvo Connect services and is a great complement to the Positioning service.

Know where you can and can’t go

Set vehicle geofences to automatically inform your colleagues and customers when vehicles enter or leave a specific area. This critical and time-saving information is displayed in the cab and in the office as the truck enters or leaves a certain geographical area – like a terminal for example.

Range and Route

The Range and Route service in Volvo Connect is a powerful planning tool for electric trucks that simulates routes and predicts range with precision. It automatically takes into consideration truck specs, payload, weather, terrain, and energy-consuming equipment, so you can be confident your truck can go the distance.
