Using Eleos’ configurable and programmable platform, Knight-Swift built a custom driver app that offers drivers more control over many aspects of their routes, while still maintaining the standards defined by the company.

Using the native “Trip Planner” feature, drivers are able to plan their routes on their personal mobile device using an amazing mobile app OR through the same app available on an in-cab tablet. This means planning is not tied to the cab and can be done anywhere the driver may be – relaxing on a sofa at home before their trip or while sitting in a booth at their favorite truckstop when they’re on the road. Aspects of the trip under the driver’s control include things like updating fuel stop locations, when and where to stop, re-routing their drive based on personal preferences, and adding points of interest along the route. All route changes are instantaneously analyzed by the system and reported back to dispatch to ensure they meet allowance standards. This flexibility allows drivers to make better use of their time while they aren’t driving, as well as feel trusted and more in control of their day.
