BUILT FOR SMES: Fitri Abdullah, Head of Maxis Business Services
KUALA LUMPUR: Maxis Berhad chalks up another milestone following the introduction of Built for SME – Logistics & Transportation, an integrated real-time solution for the Logistics & Transportation industry.
The bundled solution, the first of its kind in the country, comprises a diverse host of services beyond fixed and mobile solutions, which include Maxis Managed Machine-to-Machine (M2M), Logistics & Warehouse Management System via Maxis Cloud and Maxis Fixed Line Saver (FLS) with Unity Hotline.
Maxis’ Managed M2M solution is the country’s first and only self-managed web-based fleet management solution in Malaysia.
M2M offers business owners more information about their business processes, more automation with which to manage assets and increase productivity, and enables enterprise to offer customers a new generation of services with a lower cost to serve. Combined with Maxis’ 2G and 3G network, the widest and fastest in the country, enterprises can monitor their mobile vehicles and perform remote diagnosis anytime and wherever they are.
This provides benefits such as increased driver productivity based on location-based tracking anytime, anywhere; reduced driver overtime enabled by way of monitoring trip reports; and remote monitoring facilitated through automatic notifications of violations such as speeding, off-hour operations, among others. This will also ensure that SMEs gain greater visibility across their business, mitigate risks and increase overall efficiency.
The Logistics & Warehouse Management system via Maxis Cloud’s enables SMEs to run back-end business processes smoothly with the lowest capital expenditure while offering overall operation visibility in real-time and increasing efficiency. Maxis Cloud also offers customers comprehensive total logistics management software and applications for freight and forwarding, as well as shipping, transport and warehouse. In addition, companies will also be able to lower administrative costs through automated tendering, shipment creation and consolidation processes.
Maxis FLS enables SMEs to enjoy savings offered by Maxis mobile rate plans with their office fixed line phone. With free calls of up to 38 hours between company lines, whether fixed or mobile, within one office location or between branches, companies can enjoy savings of up to 40% on their company’s monthly phone expenses. With Maxis FLS, warehousing and logistics companies who do not have fixed coverage at their site offices will have access to a proper communications system, allowing them to connect with their workforce in different locations. The revolutionary FLS bundled with Unity Hotline solution also enables customers to distribute up to 30 concurrent incoming calls to a maximum of 100 Maxis mobile lines from one single business number.
“Built for SME – Logistics & Transportation provides logistics SMEs with end-to-end solutions from mobile to applications and software under one bundled offering that is designed to help their business run efficiently and in the most cost-effective manner. This solution will benefit price-conscious SMEs who require communications technology at low upfront investments
and maintenance costs, and will enable them to access these services through a single provider to address all their communications needs,” remarked Fitri Abdullah, Head of Maxis Business Services.
Built for SME Solution – Logistics & Transportation is the second of a series of vertical launches by Maxis in the SME market, following the successful launch of its Built for SME – Retail, Malaysia’s first integrated retail solution for retail SMEs, earlier this year.
