The CBH Domestics application eliminates the need for paperwork and enables truck drivers to expedite their on-site tasks. The app leverages geofencing and interfaces with IoT sensors at all key locations on-site, thereby strategically advancing on-site procedures. In addition, it gathers analytics during site operations and conveys this data back to the logistics teams, empowering them to take decisions based on the data and fine-tune the CBH Domestics Out-turns processes.
The CBH Domestics app (iOS and Android) brings new levels of efficiency and automation to the CBH Domestics Out-turns process.
Combined with a brand new online booking system developed by the team at CBH, transport companies and growers can now book slots at select CBH sites for loading their trucks with commodities to fulfil domestic contracts statewide. The app works seamlessly with this booking system and gives greater control to the CBH operations teams who can optimise the site out-turns process. This results in more throughput per site, helping growers sell their product faster to buyers in WA.
Upon entering the site, the app will automatically connect to site wifi services without driver interaction, resulting in a reliable connection site-wide. The app also allows drivers to capture their own weights at a weighbridge, removing the need for an employee to be in the weighbridge hut, manually capturing weights and entering it into the system.
The app was built primarily using React Native, however, in order to meet requirements and take full advantage of the iOS and Android operating systems, we created our own native modules for Bluetooth scanning, custom geofencing logic, PDF rendering and WiFi connectivity. Taking advantage of this new technology and using the “hybrid approach” for app development resulted in us delivering both an iOS and Android app to CBH with less development effort and increased consistency between platforms.
