Vehicle Control Center (VCC)
The Vehicle Control Center (VCC) is an approach to the intelligent networking of commercial vehicles, their drivers and the outside world. Therewith we develop a future oriented solution which provides vehicle manufacturers and fleet operators with genuine competitive advantages.
Its support for new technology and processes enables the continuous optimization of commercial vehicles and the logistics chain.
The challenge – increasing efficiency
Vehicle manufacturers face a range of challenges. To retain their competitive edge, they need:
- To reduce costs for the systems, the operation and the development – over all variants
- simultaneously suppliying vehicles more reliable and robust
The road freight industry is also characterized by increased competitive pressure. Challenges are:
- Reliable and just-in-time delivery
- Consequent minimisation of costs
- Efficient management of many fleet operating processes
High levels of reliability and transportation safety need to be backed by new strategies to minimize fuel consumption and reduce wear and tear.
Future-oriented systems are major determinants of success for both fleet operators and vehicle manufacturers. They need to support communication technologies such as GSM, WLAN and Bluetooth including the ability to hook up mobile devices.
Crucially, they must also ensure seamless interaction of the relevant systems inside and outside the vehicle, in conjunction with an ergonomic Human Machine Interface (HMI).
The Vehicle Control Center is our response to these needs, providing vehicle manufacturers and fleet operators with a comprehensive answer to the challenges they face.
