Breaking Down Barriers to Better Automotive Logistics

Breaking Down Barriers to Better Automotive Logistics

The Automotive Logistics 2024 Systems & Software Survey reveals that legacy systems are the most significant challenge holding back automotive logistics companies — ranking above cost and security concerns. Limited real-time tracking, poor system integration and fragmented data-sharing are among the top inefficiencies reported. In fact, 89% of automotive stakeholders plan software upgrades to improve visibility and efficiency, highlighting a widespread push for modernization.

The survey also found that software fragmentation is a major hurdle. More than half of finished vehicle logistics (FVL) companies use unique software platforms, creating significant interoperability issues. Additionally, 84% of respondents plan to develop, upgrade or invest in new software within the next year, yet many still rely on in-house or niche solutions that perpetuate integration challenges.

At Precision Vehicle Logistics, we help remove inefficiencies and streamline operations for automotive manufacturers and suppliers. Our advanced logistics solutions prioritize real-time tracking, seamless system integration and improved end-to-end visibility. By replacing outdated processes with data-driven strategies, we minimize delays and maximize efficiency — giving our partners the tools to stay ahead in a competitive market.

As the industry shifts toward modernization, the question isn’t whether to upgrade; it’s how to do it effectively. With Precision Vehicle Logistics, you don’t have to navigate that road alone. Let’s drive the future of automotive logistics together.
