Real-time
Fleet Management and Optimal Balancing plans
We worked as contractors in the metro area of the city of Medellín (amva), Colombia, to co-develop a new information system infrastructure for their public bike system. Leveraging state-of-the-art web technology and software architecture practices, Cohesive Manufacturing developed crucial components of the Encicla ecosystem in record time. These components enable users to perform automatic bike loans and returns at kiosks. They also empower field operators to monitor the system's behavior and utilize supercomputing capabilities to create optimal plans, minimizing kilometers traveled by balancing trucks and allocating bikes efficiently to reduce operational costs and environmental impact.
Efficient Journeys
Smart Commuting Solutions
It is the era of big data, and urban centers face the challenge of understanding their mobility patterns to formulate improved transportation policies. Cohesive Manufacturing collaborated with the metro area of the city of Medellín (AMVA), Colombia, to develop a digital application aimed at comprehending the key patterns of Medellin's predominant workforce.
Our GPS-based algorithms proficiently label trip origins and destinations, identify transportation modes, and determine peak hours of mobility. Additionally, the app facilitates carpooling with scheduled trips, encouraging coworkers in your residential area to share drives—a concept that can extend to companies in the program. To incentivize active mobility, the app employs gamification tactics.
