The challenge

Virginia Transportation Corporation moves new vehicles for automotive customers. Drivers logged every pickup and drop-off by hand, and dispatchers had no live view of what was happening on the road. That led to delays, missed details and constant calls and texts to find out where things stood.

What we built

We built a native iOS and Android driver app for loads, inspections and signatures. It guides drivers through each step of a vehicle move in order, so nothing gets skipped, and captures the data the moment it happens instead of in follow-up calls or paper notes.

Vehicle inspections with VIN details and damage capture
Signatures and status updates sent to dispatch right away

How we worked

We designed the screens for speed in the field and structured the app so dispatch and operations can see what is happening without constant coordination. The platform is built to grow, with room for new workflow steps, scheduling support and reporting as the operation expands.

The team is able to speak intelligently about what they're going to do and what potential issues would be. I've had a lot of contractors just nod their heads, without knowing what I'm asking for, and do whatever they want. Denovo Studios really took the time to understand what I was looking for.
