The power of data & insights to make business more sustainable

Digitization & sustainability go hand in hand

Internet of Things company Suivo started in 2010 in Edegem with classic track & trace solutions for companies. Meanwhile, it offers "data & insights" in a 3D view and is an important link in the information chain/digitization at its customers. 3D? Suivo's solutions help in Vehicle Telematics, Mobile Workforce and Asset Management. 

"We digitize your workflows by connecting colleagues and the assets they use," they say at Suivo. The 3D approach allows the Suivo IoT Cloud platform to be rolled out in phases, according to the priorities organizations have. They recently added the "Eco Drive App" to their IoT Cloud Platform, which will undoubtedly redefine the concept of sustainable mobility. The app is applicable across all sectors and leads to enlightening insights through analysis.

More efficiency and less pollution on the road

In recent years there has been a strong awareness among business owners that trips should be planned more efficiently. Every fewer kilometers driven counts in terms of cost savings and leads to less pollution. In order to give concrete substance to these increasingly frequent management ideas, Suivo developed convenient "off the shelf" available solutions for various sectors. Suivo serves customers from the public sector, construction, utilities, transportation, logistics, police and fire departments, ... 

Data of trips, loads, shipments, vehicles, tools, other materials and assets and drivers, among others, are consultable in real time. For example, Suivo previously developed a turnkey solution for the ready-mixed concrete sector, which records every movement of a concrete mixer on the Cloud Platform, including loading and unloading and integration with the ERP system; every dispatcher's dream.

Eco Drive App: the driver gets to take the wheel

The Eco Drive App recently launched by Suivo gives both the platform operator and the individual driver insight into their own driving behavior and relevant vehicle data. The stored data can be displayed per day and per vehicle and include numerous data on trips made: miles driven, idling, G-forces, consumption, speeds, violations... In this way, the driver literally and figuratively gets more control over the wheel to adjust or adjust driving behavior based on the recorded parameters.

Eco-Score gamification leads to better acceptance

The Eco Drive App should give drivers more insight into their own driving behavior and encourage them to drive more environmentally and safety-consciously. For example, they can see for themselves where they were driving too fast or braking too hard and adjust their driving behavior accordingly. The app has social relevance, especially in today's zeitgeist and, thanks to its instant feedback after each drive, encourages a change in attitude. In the future, the addition of a gamification element will help the use become even more fluent.

This development already illustrates Suivo's evolution: from selling tracking devices to digitalization solutions. The ultimate goal of capturing, connecting and centralizing data is optimization. Specifically, to optimize workflows and existing capacity. Suivo believes in open platforms and linking with existing data to create unique insights that lead to sustainable operations.
