Need For A Tracking Application
The way business is done in India is changing. Earlier brands showcased products to consumers through advertisements and consumers then walked up to the stores to buy them. Today brands are taking products straight to consumer’s home. Consumers are now in a position to order anything right from food to cabs to diamonds to services (hyperlocal) – through the tap of a button on their mobile phones.
This has led to a tremendous increase in amount of on the field workforce as well as on road vehicle inventory which is increasing exponentially and is only going to increase in times to come. These newly added segments along with the already existing transport ecosystem and on the field workforce such as sales, marketing and field agents is making it more and more necessary for companies to have an extremely efficient field tracking system in place to manage their operations effectively and remain profitable as well as sustainable.
