Case Study: Cargill improves driver safety and delivery efficiency with SAP Cloud Platform SDK for iOS

Building an App that Truck Drivers Love to Use with SAP Cloud Platform

The customer, Cargill, faced the challenge of improving safety and efficiency for its truck drivers and administration. They needed to create an intuitive mobile app that provided drivers with critical information like maps and plant wait times while also building in safety measures to limit the need for drivers to exit their vehicles during check-in and weighing processes. To address this, Cargill worked with vendor SAP, leveraging the SAP Cloud Platform SDK for iOS to connect with their back-end SAP Transportation Management application.

With the solution from SAP, Cargill quickly built and launched an iOS app that integrated with Apple Maps and automated key processes. The results included significant time savings for drivers and shipping clerks, along with greatly improved driver safety as they no longer needed to get out of their trucks at plants. The app's immediate adoption and positive driver feedback led to a more efficient operation with the expectation of drastically cutting administrative efforts.
