Let’s dive into how HERE Technologies can support your cost management strategy.
Efficient Location Services
HERE Technologies’ location services are crafted to enhance operational efficiency and reduce costs. Key services include:
- HERE Map Rendering: Integrate pre-rendered map tiles and images into your applications, available in various zoom levels and display options. This helps in reducing the development time and costs associated with custom map rendering.
- HERE Geocoding & Search: Discover addresses, points of interest (POIs), and other location data with daily updates. Accurate geocoding reduces errors and improves the efficiency of location-based services, saving time and resources.
- HERE Routing: Get accurate estimated times of arrival (ETAs) with routing algorithms for various transportation modes, including cars, bicycles, and trucks. Optimised routing helps in reducing fuel consumption and travel time, directly impacting cost savings.
- HERE Matrix Routing: Calculate travel times or distances for up to 10,000 origins and destinations. This is particularly useful for logistics and delivery services, helping to optimise routes and reduce operational costs.
Fleet Optimisation for Cost Efficiency
The HERE Fleet Optimisation package is a game-changer for logistics management. It offers a single, transparent pricing model for all components. This package includes tools for route optimisation, asset tracking, and real-time fleet management. By leveraging HERE’s advanced location technology, businesses can significantly reduce fuel consumption, minimise travel time, and enhance overall operational efficiency.
AI-Driven Logistics Management
HERE Technologies’ AI-driven logistics management solution, designed to run natively on AWS, offers flexible pricing and better cost control. This solution is accessible for in-house software developers and integrated software vendors (ISVs). By utilising AI and machine learning, businesses can gain deeper insights into their logistics operations, identify cost-saving opportunities, and streamline their supply chain processes.
Tailored Pricing Plans for Every Business
