Why Let Manual Errors and Delays Cost You More?
Managing complex logistics and transportation operations with outdated technology can lead to inefficiencies, such as delayed shipments, inaccurate inventory tracking, and manual data entry errors. Legacy systems often struggle to keep up with the dynamic needs of modern fleet management, real-time monitoring, and predictive analytics.
Without these, you’re unable to proactively address issues like delays, traffic congestion, or maintenance needs, leading to higher operational costs and missed opportunities for improvement.
Codewave specializes in modernizing transportation and logistics IT systems through custom software development, tailored to meet the specific needs of your business. Our solutions include fleet management software, logistics process automation, transportation management systems, and a range of additional services. These integrate seamlessly into your existing infrastructure.

From Fleet Downtime to Full Visibility
Dealing with outdated systems, missed deliveries, and rising fuel costs? Modern IT solutions can optimize your logistics for better performance and cost savings.
Outdated vehicle tracking systems often result in excessive fuel consumption, unpredictable maintenance issues, and longer delivery cycles. These inefficiencies make it challenging to meet growing customer expectations for timely deliveries.
We develop innovative fleet management solutions using AWS IoT Core for real-time vehicle tracking and Azure AI for predictive maintenance. Our platform also includes driver behavior monitoring, carrier collaboration, load planning, and navigation features.
This enables fleet managers to schedule preventive maintenance, optimize fuel consumption, and minimize vehicle downtime.
Example: A last-mile delivery company managing 150+ vehicles may struggle with unexpected breakdowns and fuel wastage. After implementing telematics solution, they can expect a significant drop in on-road failures and significantly lower fuel spend. This can result in improved delivery SLAs and operating margins.
Static or manually planned delivery routes often result in longer travel times, wasted fuel, and driver fatigue, especially during peak traffic hours or when road conditions are changing. These inefficiencies can cause delays in shipments and increase operational costs.
We build advanced route optimization systems powered by real-time tracking and mapping, Google Maps API, and AWS Machine Learning. These systems analyze live traffic conditions, vehicle availability, and delivery priorities to recommend the most efficient paths.
Integrated admin dashboards offer comprehensive visibility into route performance, while plate recognition and dispatch tools streamline load distribution and track vehicle movement. Our platform also takes into account road infrastructure data to avoid known bottlenecks and ensure route safety.
Example: A food delivery chain operating in metro cities may experience frequent late deliveries during peak hours. By implementing an intelligent route optimization system, they can expect more efficient routing, increased on-time deliveries, and a notable reduction in fuel and labor costs.
Standard logistics tools often fall short when it comes to handling specialized operations, such as airport logistics, factory workflows, or secure user access. These gaps lead to delays, manual dependencies, and scaling issues.
We build tailored logistics platforms, starting with PoC & MVPs using tools like Firebase, AWS Lambda, and Node.js for rapid validation. We then scale to complete systems using React, .NET Core, and PostgreSQL. These platforms support module customization, apps, and plugins, secure authorization (via OAuth/Azure AD), and real-time notifications using Firebase Cloud Messaging or Azure Notification Hubs.
With this setup, teams can automate tasks, reduce manual work, and run complex logistics operations with greater speed and control.
Example: An airport ground operations team may rely on spreadsheets for crew scheduling. By building an aviation logistics platform, they can expect faster task assignment, live notifications, and improved shift coordination, resulting in reduced downtime and increased throughput.
Logistics businesses often adopt technology haphazardly without a clear roadmap, resulting in fragmented systems, manual workarounds, and increased operational costs.
We provide consulting services across business analysis, SDLC optimization, QA strategy, and digital risk management. To achieve this, we utilize tools such as Jira, Confluence, Postman, and Azure DevOps to define scalable technical roadmaps and streamline development, testing, and release processes.
Example: A regional freight company may face challenges due to outdated tools and inconsistent workflows across departments. After engaging with us for logistics digitalization consulting, they can expect a streamlined system architecture and faster delivery processing.
When operational data is scattered across different systems, logistics teams struggle to extract timely insights. This results in delays, inventory mismanagement, and missed performance targets.
We implement end-to-end data analytics solutions using tools like AWS QuickSight, Azure Synapse Analytics, and custom-built BI dashboards. These systems integrate supply chain data, improve compliance reporting, and provide real-time visibility into delivery performance, asset health, and inventory trends.
Example: A 3PL company managing multiple warehouses may lack real-time visibility into late shipments and stock levels. With our integrated analytics solution, they can expect better decision-making, reduced penalty costs, and improved resource planning across their supply chain.
Legacy IT systems in logistics frequently struggle with scalability, leading to frequent downtime, delayed deployments, and escalating infrastructure costs.
We offer end-to-end managed services including cloud-based data management, virtual asset optimization, logistics cloud migration, CI/CD automation, and transportation cloud security.
Our solutions utilize AWS, Azure, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, and GitHub Actions to ensure high uptime, faster deployments, and secure infrastructure that grows with your operations.
Example: A logistics tech firm expanding to new cities may face frequent outages and development slowdowns. After migrating to our managed cloud with CI/CD automation, they can expect 99.9% uptime, faster software rollouts, and a significant drop in IT management overhead.
Fragmented systems and manual processes across supply chains, including inventory updates, dock scheduling, payment processing, and shipment tracking, lead to delays, high operational costs, and scalability issues.
As a software partner, we develop custom automation workflows for supply, production, and parcel logistics, integrating systems such as ERP, WMS, and TMS using tools like AWS Step Functions, Azure Logic Apps, Node.js, and Python-based microservices.
We also digitize payment processing, automate document generation and reporting, and develop route planning and dock scheduling modules with live sync to fleet data and inventory.
Example: A regional logistics company may handle dock scheduling and payments manually across different systems. After adopting our custom-built automation suite, they can expect faster dispatch turnaround times, real-time inventory synchronization, and unified reporting. This can result in smoother handoffs and reduced admin overhead.
In logistics, delays and losses often happen when teams lack real-time visibility into shipment status, vehicle location, or equipment condition. Without live updates, it’s hard to reroute deliveries, prevent spoilage, or act quickly during disruptions.
We build mobile and IoT-enabled systems that provide live insights using 5G-connected sensors, GPS, RFID, QR codes, and Bluetooth beacons (wireless transmitters). Our solutions also include digital twins for simulating asset performance, and edge processing (via AWS Greengrass) for faster local decision-making.
These tools are accessible via custom React Native mobile applications and can track ESG metrics, cargo conditions, and equipment health in real-time.
Example: A cold chain logistics company may experience spoilage due to temperature fluctuations during transit. With our IoT-integrated mobile solution, they can expect real-time alerts, live tracking, and quicker responses, hence reducing losses and ensuring safety compliance.
