Delivering more than just packages with transport data management

Delivering transport logistics IT solutions is no longer a back-office activity, nor is it solely concerned with delivering people and things from A to B. It doesn’t matter if the bus is on time if you can’t connect to the Wi-Fi network. It doesn’t matter if the stock reaches its destination if it’s been damaged in transit. It doesn’t matter how fast the train travels if it’s then needlessly stalled at the station. Today, it’s the experience on the journey that matters to your customers.

Adding value to keep you ahead of the game

At Node4, we understand that meeting the expectations of yesterday won’t keep you competitive tomorrow. We use our transformative IT solutions for transport and logistics to elevate your customers’ experience, developing new services to help you stand out from the crowd. Our portfolio of digital IT managed services will also enable you to drive productivity throughout your business. We do this by optimising your databases, augmenting your connectivity and using IoT to streamline your processes. It’s our aim to add value at every stage of your customer’s journey.

Insightful data leads to insightful behaviour

The technology services we offer through our transport and logistics IT solutions can benefit any business, across a variety of sectors. Our data analytics are accurate, fast and smart. Our transport data management services are helping to create a world where you can not only track the location of a shipment but also monitor and control the conditions of that cargo.

In this world, trains have reliable connectivity, buses log themselves in and out of depots and fleets of couriers converse effortlessly with the HQ. Just five years ago, all this would have been a dream. With the stable digital transformation in transport and logistics that we provide, our customers are making it a reality.

By partnering with Node4, EMR was able to achieve coverage and connectivity across 100 per cent of its sites – helping to enhance passenger experiences while significantly improving performance and reliability.

Stagecoach took its Cloud Adoption strategy up a gear thanks to Node4’s secure SD-WAN

Continue reading to learn how Node4’s expertise in digital transformation and in transport and logistics helped Stagecoach to overcome their challenge.

Stagecoach’s WAN was struggling to deliver on availability, bandwidth, security and integration. Like many companies, Stagecoach had put off a network upgrade because of the perceived amount of disruption it would cause. “We also wanted a solution that would improve our security posture,” explained Graham Moore, the operator’s Group Chief Information Officer.

“Cybercriminals have become far savvier, and incidents of hacks and scams show no signs of slowing. That’s why centrally managed security protocols and configurations were top of our requirement list.”
