ZF’s Commercial Vehicle Solutions (CVS) division has launched SCALAR, its advanced new digital fleet orchestration platform.
Offering a diverse suite of features designed to optimise commercial fleet operations, SCALAR supports a wide range of customer requirements including fully automatic and live planning, routing, scheduling and dispatching solutions.
The company claims that it will help commercial fleets achieve new levels of efficiency by establishing intelligent end-to-end systems which ‘orchestrate’ the whole process of freight logistics as well as passenger transport.
The platform leverages unique vehicle data and takes real-time, AI-based automated decision-making and fleet optimisation to the next level. Its open, modular platform can support a wide range of customer requirements for both homogeneous and mixed fleets.
The integration of Bestmile’s Orchestration solution represents both a technology enabler as well as a significant commercial milestone for SCALAR in preparing the ground and delivering orchestration services. Underpinning ZF’s strategy to realise Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS), ZF is already successfully commercialising the Mobility Service Orchestration Solution, enabling public and private mobility providers to plan, launch and operate highly efficient fixed-route and demand-responsive transportation services for passengers.
