To help its customers optimize delivery routes
The international logistics company builds bespoke software andhardware solutions for fleet management

Delivery companies in Central and South America, like many countries
across the globe, face two major challenges: demand for homedeliveries has increased, and finding experienced and knowledgeable
drivers is difficult.

“Today, even a small local shop has to have a home delivery system,”said Miguel Loya, Rastret’s CTO.

More deliveries mean more drivers are needed – but historically, only
those with expert local knowledge could do the job. This limited whoa fleet owner could hire and it required owners to give more freedom
to drivers.

“Technology has made the delivery market more dynamic becausethat expertise is no longer needed,” Loya added. Armed with the rightnavigation tools, drivers can rely on Rastret’s software to plan routes
for them. This widens the pool of potential drivers.

Rastret provides software and hardware to small and mid-size
logistics companies. The company’s solutions upgrade the customer’snavigation capabilities and expand their pool of potential drivers,
while keeping them within tight cost margins. Already operating inthe Americas, from Chile to the Southern USA, the company is now
expanding into parts of Europe.

“There has been exponential growth in thearea of delivery, especially the last mile.”A b ou t Rastret

Easy-to-use development tools and up-to-datetour planning information
Rastret uses Amazon Web Services (AWS) and HERE to solve location-related challenges.
Together, AWS and HERE accelerate speed to market and time to value through the powerof location services and the leading cloud and IT services.
Rastret leverages HERE’s fleet-specific data, tools and APIs, such as HERE Tour Planningand HERE Last Mile, along with geofencing, geocoding and geotagging tools. Up-to-date
information on changes in the weather, construction on the roads, road geometry andtraffic helps Rastret’s clients plan the best routes and react quickly to changes.

“I am really impressed by the flexibility of HERE’s products. They save us a lot of work
because they are ready-made solutions and we can focus on implementation,” Loya said.
Stability is vital to Rastret’s clients, which is why Rastret works so closely with AWS.
The security and stability of AWS’ servers gives the logistics company the flexibility andreliability they need to grow.

“Route predictions are very important today
and they involve lots of elements. Having asmuch up to date information as possible allows
us to make better decisions. The shortest
route is not always the best route.”

Reliable infrastructure, accurate data and the ability
to help customers reduce fuel consumption

Rastret has been a proud AWS customer for a number of years due tothe service’s flexibility, scalability and reliability. The addition of location
technology from HERE blended well with AWS’ offering and accelerated
multiple areas of Rastret’s business.

Fresh and accurate location data is critical to solving the driver shortage for Rastret’s clients. Since switching
to HERE products and development tools, they’ve resolved a number of issues related to inaccurate
information and outdated positions.
It can be difficult to quantify the impact a good development tool has on a project. But in terms ofimplementation timelines, Loya estimates that HERE’s tools enable them to work approximately 30% faster.
“Right now, I’m working on a project and the results we’re obtaining are about two months ahead ofschedule,” said Loya.

The overall benefits of AWS and HERE extend to Rastret’s customer base as well. Rastret has watched its
clients reduce fuel use and increase fleet efficiency without increasing the size of their fleet.

Research and development sets Rastret apart from its competition. With support location technology, thecompany is using connected vehicle sensor data from approximately 8,000 vehicles to enhance services,such as driver analysis reports and vehicle performance.

With a powerful location platform that combines enterprise-grade location
data, services and tooling, HERE looks for ways to help customers innovate.
HERE also offers the development support that allows for easy integrationof HERE data with customer data to deliver applications that impact end
users in meaningful ways.

“We don’t measure delivery times, but our customers complete
more deliveries per shift than before using our solutions.
It’s an increase in efficiency without increasing their fleet!.”Miguel Loya, CTO, Rastret
