挑战
DFS, a sofa retailer and manufacturer with 51 operating centres across the UK, faces the challenge of controlling driver behaviour to ensure safety, cost-effectiveness, and optimal fleet performance. With around 250 7.5-ton vehicles and 45 articulated vehicles with 80 trailers, DFS delivers 12,000 orders weekly. The drivers not only drive but also install furniture, making customer service a top priority. The main challenge is to monitor and provide feedback on driver behaviour to maintain high safety standards and reduce fuel costs.
关于客户
DFS is a prominent sofa retailer and manufacturer in the UK, operating 51 centres nationwide. The company manages a substantial fleet of vehicles, including 250 7.5-ton trucks and 45 articulated vehicles with 80 trailers, to deliver approximately 12,000 orders each week. DFS drivers are unique in that they not only transport but also install furniture, emphasizing a customer-centric approach. The company is committed to delivering high-quality service while ensuring the safety and efficiency of its fleet operations.
解决方案
DFS implemented the Microlise Fleet Performance product, including its safety module, to monitor harsh acceleration, braking, and cornering. This system identifies and records events, providing detailed information about the conditions at the time, allowing the transport team to analyze and debrief drivers effectively. Additionally, DFS installed the Microlise ClearVision camera system, which integrates with the telematics and safety module. This setup enables the team to review footage around incidents, gaining a comprehensive understanding of events before, during, and after any incident. DFS is also trialling the Microlise in-cab navigation systems and exploring an interface between its in-house systems and Microlise to provide customers with real-time delivery status updates.
运营影响
  • DFS has achieved a safer driving environment for its drivers through the implementation of the Microlise systems.
  • The integration of the Microlise ClearVision camera system has allowed DFS to review and understand incidents comprehensively.
  • The transport team can now effectively debrief drivers using detailed information provided by the Microlise Fleet Performance product.
数量效益
  • The fleet has saved more than 6% in fuel costs in its first year of operation.
