Fleethand joins Bosch L.OS to offer its customers an advanced truck parking solution

We are excited to announce that Fleethand joins Bosch L.OS – Logistics Operating System as a partner. The L.OS platform, which is operated on Amazon Web Services (AWS), provides logistics and forwarding companies around the world with quick and easy access to digital services and smart service integrations.

In a first step, Fleethand integrates Bosch Secure Truck Parking via Bosch L.OS into its fleet management system and brings this innovative truck parking booking platform directly to its customer base. This integration is set to transform how fleets manage parking, enhancing both operational efficiency and driver convenience.

By leveraging the integration capabilities of Bosch L.OS, Fleethand users now have real-time access to more than 400 truck parking areas across Europe. This allows them to reserve parking spots in advance and cancel reservations when plans change, offering flexibility and control.

Benefits for Fleethand users

1. Real-time parking availability

Fleethand users can now access accurate and real-time information on available parking spots along their routes, whether in high-security areas or affordable depot locations. This enables fleet managers and dispatchers to plan and secure parking more effectively, reducing uncertainty and improving route planning for their drivers.

2. Simplified reservations and cancellations 

With just a few clicks, users can reserve parking spots directly through the Fleethand system. If schedules shift, reservations can easily be modified or canceled, providing flexibility in route management.

3. Reduced idle time

Finding secure parking without wasting time is a major challenge for fleet managers and dispatchers. With this integration, drivers no longer need to search for parking upon arrival, minimizing idle time, reducing fuel costs, and easing the stress of last-minute parking searches. This can save up to €100 per truck each month by avoiding unnecessary parking search traffic.

4. Optimized route planning 

The ability to reserve parking in advance allows fleet managers and dispatchers to create more precise and optimized routes. This not only enhances on-time delivery rates but also helps drivers avoid unnecessary detours when looking for parking, keeping operations smooth and efficient.

5. Enhanced driver safety and compliance 

Securing parking reservations ahead of time helps ensure drivers comply with mandatory rest periods and safety regulations. By providing safe, designated locations for breaks, this feature promotes driver well-being and compliance with regulations such as the Hours of Service (HOS) requirements.

6. Creating additional business 

Customers can also generate additional income by offering available parking space at their facilities to other drivers, creating a new revenue stream.

How this solves a major industry challenge

Parking is one of the most time-consuming and frustrating issues drivers face on the road. With increasing pressure for timely deliveries, limited parking availability, and strict regulatory requirements, fleets need a reliable parking management system. Fleethand and Bosch L.OS directly address these challenges by providing fleet managers, dispatchers, and drivers with the tools they need to access parking availability, plan more efficient routes, and alleviate the stress of managing multiple logistics demands.
