"Mit Tourbosoft haben wir im ersten Jahr nach der Einführung bereits 200.000 € Fuhrparkkosten eingespart. Durch die bessere Tourenplanung steigerten wir unsere Produktivität im Fuhrpark signifikant und setzen weniger externe Speditionen ein.
Weiterhin haben wir die Ergonomie der Arbeitsplätze unserer Fahrer durch die in die Fahrer-App integrierte Navigation deutlich verbessert, so dass diese sich besser auf die Verkehrssituation konzentrieren können, die im Ruhrgebiet sehr beanspruchend sein kann. Durch objektive Zeitvorgaben und optimal geplante Tourreihenfolgen konnten weiterhin die zu leistenden Überstunden der Fahrer deutlich reduziert werden. Durch die Digitalisierung ihres Arbeitsplatzes fühlen sich darüber hinaus die Fahrer in ihrer Tätigkeit aufgewertet.
Die Einführung der Tourbosoft-Systeme im Fuhrpark ist somit ein rundum geglücktes Projekt, das uns motiviert hat, nun auch die Digitalisierung unserer Lager- und Einkaufsprozesse ebenfalls mit dem Team von Tourbosoft anzugehen.“
