Logistics
Knowledge Automation for Logistics.
See how process industry leaders are using knowledge automation to avoid errors in loading & unloading – saving millions of dollars in avoided incidents per year.
Challenges
Loading & unloading incidents lead to hefty fines.
47% of incidents in loading and unloading in plants are human error related – with 11.5k incidents taking place each year in the US alone. With high staff turnover and wide-ranging levels of skill and competency, trucking and railcars have become a key pain point for operations and logistics professionals in the process industry.
Varying levels of competency
High turnover of staff with very different skill levels, with new hires often starting out in loading and unloading.
Lack of on the job training
Slow & subjective training system based on written SOPs & on the job shadowing leads to a lack of visibility of competency of operators.
Variety of trucks & railcars
The large number of types of railcars & trucks makes the inspection & execution of loading/unloading tasks a challenging mission.

How Calumet transformed its loading operations
Challenge
Calumet Montana Refining has 180 carriers hauling from 2 terminals (fuel and asphalt) – with 1.5k truck loads per month during peak season. The Calumet team wanted to reduce operator and admin workload; improve the quality of training material and mitigate costly incidents.
How Voovio helped
Calumet was able to save operators 75 to 80% more time, onboarding 10 to 20 new drivers per month. Voovio allows them to recognize issues faster, gain more driver feedback on issues and automate truck driver test results during onboarding.
