FunkTrans Fleet Management System Selects Acapela

FunkTrans Termintransport GmbH, a direct transport service in Austria, has chosen the digital disposition and fleet management system from UniDiCom, which is speech-enabled by Acapela.

UniDiCom, a company in electronic mobile solutions in Austria, provides a global system based on Pocket-PCs with GPS-localization and GPRS-Networking, covering the whole transportation channel. The call agents can localize the drivers and have an overview of their position, status, orders and waiting waste time. The address of the incoming order is transformed into GPS coordinates by a GeoGIS-database and sent with the billing information and other delivery conditions to the nearest car to the pick-up place.

UnidiCom solutions allow FunkTrans Termintransport to track the 200 vehicles in circulation, to adapt their route to optimize pick up and delivery delays.

Acapela text-to-speech vocally transmits the details of the next stopping place - order and address basically - to the drivers. The information is transmitted to the pocket PC located in the vehicle and visual information is vocalized using Acapela text-to-speech.
