As part of the collaboration, Webfleet joins Bosch’s Logistics Operating System L.OS, to offer additional services with the Webfleet fleet management platform.
The goal is to connect different services and systems into a uniform systems for businesses to run their fleets more efficiently based on real-time data.
As a first use case, Bosch Secure Truck Parking, a European booking platform for secure truck parking, will integrate into the Webfleet fleet management solution via Bosch. The digital solution will allow fleets to quickly and easily plan and book secure parking spaces across a network of verified parking lots, minimising cargo theft risk and prioritising driver well-being. The solution also helps to reduce fuel costs and CO2 emissions from time wasted searching for a parking space.
