SERVIROAD achieves the highest TAPA Certification level with a major contribution from Frotcom

Jan. 24, 2022 - PRLog -- The Portuguese logistics and freight transport company specializes in logistics and temperature-controlled transport of valuable goods to Europe and Angola, imports and exports, customs clearance, consulting, and support.

Being a TAPA, IFS*, BRC*, and ISO* certificated company, SERVIROAD needed a complete fleet management solution to comply with the standard of each certificate.

Frotcom was found to be the right partner to meet this need since the team understood the specificity of the sector and could find equally specific solutions to keep up with the high levels of demand that certifications oblige. Also, Frotcom is constantly innovating in a market that is increasingly demanding.

(...)

SERVIROAD raised its level of TAPA Certification from Trucking Security Requirements (TSR 3 to TSR1). These were some of the features responsible for this certification raise level:
- Buzzer notifications when tractor and trailer doors are opened without previous authorization from the office;
- Coupling and uncoupling control;
- Using a portable panic button device.

Thanks to Frotcom's features, SERVIROAD has also achieved an average reduction of fuel in the overall fleet, decreasing the cost per kilometer traveled, reducing the vehicles' wear and tear, and lowering maintenance costs.

Noé Bernardes, TAPA Controller and Security Advisor at SERVIROAD, said: "Since implementing the Frotcom software, we have achieved a reduction of around 0.8 liters in the company's overall average. We cover approximately 1 000 000 km per month across the entire fleet, which translates into direct savings of approximately 4500€. Frotcom revealed itself as a strategic supplier in the company's organization, accompanying and creating solutions for the challenges that our customers pose. Moreover, they created solutions that did not previously exist on the market, such as Fleet alarms without the driver's action, being the entire process managed from the monitoring center".

Ultimately, it is crucial to emphasize SERVIROAD's TAPA certification level upgrade through the use of Frotcom's features and its remarkable results in fleet cost reduction and compliance with all of its certification standards.
