    Project Overview

    Building a Predictive Fleet & Shipment Management Platform for a Global Logistics Leader.

     

    Industry

    Logistics

     

    The Client

    One of the world’s largest logistics companies is aiming to modernize fleet operations and shipment tracking across multiple regions. Their existing legacy tools were fragmented, lacked real-time visibility, and couldn’t scale with growing global operations.

     

    Challenges Addressed

    • No unified visibility of shipments across regions
    • Unreliable delivery ETAs, leading to customer dissatisfaction and SLA breaches
    • Manual route planning increases operational costs
    • Scaling limitations when onboarding new enterprise customers and regions

     

    Collaboration in Action

    Cubet partnered with the client through a Dedicated Team model (Dedicated Software Teams)—a fully integrated team of engineers, architects, and data specialists working as an extension of the client’s IT division. This setup enabled close collaboration, a deep understanding of operational challenges, and ongoing development and support without requiring a large internal team.

     

    Technologies Deployed

    Backend: Python (FastAPI)
    Data Streaming: Kafka, Airflow
    Database: PostgreSQL, Redis, Elasticsearch
    Machine Learning: scikit-learn, TensorFlow
    Deployment: Docker, Kubernetes (AWS EKS), Terraform
    Integrations: ERP/WMS APIs, GPS/IoT devices, weather and traffic data APIs

     

    Innovative Feature

    A custom-built, multi-tenant SaaS platform featuring:

    • Real-time data streaming for live tracking
    • Predictive ETAs using ML models
    • Dynamic route optimization based on traffic/weather disruptions
    • Role-based dashboards for shippers, drivers, and managers
    • Fast onboarding of new regions and clients through data segregation

     

    Value Delivered

    • 30% reduction in delivery delays due to accurate ETAs and proactive alerts
    • 20% cut in fleet operating costs from improved utilization and routing
    • 2x faster onboarding of new regions, enabling rapid global expansion
    • Platform processes over 1.5 million shipment events daily with 99.99% uptime

     

    User Feedback

    Cubet felt like an extension of our own team. The platform changed how we operate—faster, clearer, smarter.

     

    Conclusion

    By adopting Cubet’s Dedicated Team model, the client scaled development rapidly without increasing internal headcount. The platform became a strategic asset—enhancing shipment visibility, reducing SLA breaches, and securing long-term contracts with global freight companies.

     

    Impact Made

    Significant operational cost savings, improved customer satisfaction, faster regional expansion, and a strategic edge in the competitive logistics space.
