Revolutionising Driver Performance Management with AI-powered Advanced Telematics

Background

We believe that AI-driven telematics and driver performance management will enable automakers to enhance safety, reduce operational costs, manage maintenance and deliver a more personalised driving experience.

As a response to the increasing needs, for real-time driver performance and fleet management, we at Tata Elxsi leveraged upon our expertise in designing a scalable real-time driver scoring and monitoring system capable of processing vast amounts of real-time data. This solution helps to provide actionable insights for fleet managers and insurers on use cases like track driver efficiency, safety, and engagement, all while improving road safety.

This intuitive solution was developed for a leading Indian automotive manufacturer, who sought to enhance driver performance management by developing a data-driven system.

Challenge

The primary challenge in driver performance management capable of efficiently collecting and analysing over 50 TB of data daily. The solution needed to ensure scalability, real-time monitoring, and secure data handling for over 10,000 drivers while offering streak analysis and quantifiable rating changes. Furthermore, it had to comply with regulatory requirements in different regions, including Europe’s GDPR and the USA’s CCPA, to ensure data privacy. Tata Elxsi’s system needed to deliver precision and reliability for fleet managers across global markets. Additionally, the system needed to track driver engagement through streak analysis and provide actionable insights, all while ensuring top-notch data security and accuracy. This project aimed to revolutionise how driver performance is monitored and improved, setting new standards in the automotive industry.

Solution

Tata Elxsi proposed a comprehensive driver performance management solution incorporating advanced data collection and analysis techniques. The project involved developing a robust mechanism to collect user data and the Event Monitoring and Reporting technology (EMR) process its using for efficient analysis. The solution also included a ranking system based on the average efficiency, performance, and safety ratings. Furthermore, it tracked streaks by identifying consecutive days of driver engagement and quantified changes in driver ratings by comparing current and previous ratings.

Impact

The implementation of Tata Elxsi's advanced data solution for driver performance management yielded impressive results for the client. The system efficiently processed 50 TB of daily data from various sensors, evaluating over 10,000 drivers based on efficiency, performance, and safety. Streak analysis improved continuous engagement, with the longest streak at 120 days and a 20% reduction in inactive hours. Ensuring data integrity, the solution adhered to privacy regulations for users. Actionable insights identified 15% of high performers, driving a 25% fleet performance improvement. Scalability supported 10,000 concurrent queries without bottlenecks, boosting user engagement by 30% and system efficiency by 50%. It also led to a 20% reduction in data processing time.
