Also serving Mangalore and Mangaluru
Tankers leaving the refinery, tippers hauling coal from the port, private buses on every coastal route: Dakshina Kannada moves on wheels, and few operators know their cost per kilometre.
Trusted by 200+ organisations across India & overseas — including
Stand beside the highway at Surathkal for a while and the district's economy rolls past. Bulk tankers carry petroleum products and LPG inland. Trucks take coal, fertiliser and containers from New Mangalore Port up the Shiradi and Charmadi ghats. Private buses, a coastal institution, connect Mangaluru with every taluk town. College fleets collect students from across the district. Behind most of these are owners who manage trips by phone and diesel by trust.
ERPNext fleet and dispatch management records vehicles, documents, drivers, trips, fuel, tyres, maintenance and expenses, and links each trip to its billing and its costs. GPS feeds can be integrated for live status and geofencing. Reminders cover insurance, permits, fitness and service. A Dakshina Kannada transporter sees profit by trip, by vehicle and by route, and knows which truck is free before promising one.
Fuel is the largest running cost and the easiest to lose. Trip-wise fuel entries compared with distance and expected mileage by vehicle show which trucks, routes or drivers need a closer look.
When rain closes a ghat road, trips reroute through longer passes and costs jump. Route-wise costing and trip records let the operator claim the difference from the customer with evidence.
A tanker stopped at a checkpost for a lapsed document loses days. Document expiry alerts for each vehicle and driver, including hazardous goods licences, reach the manager well ahead.
Petrochemicals and refining
Tanker operators carrying petroleum products and LPG track calibration and safety certificates, driver hazardous goods training, loading slot schedules, trip-wise shortage claims and transporter bills against contracts.
Port and shipping logistics
Container and bulk cargo hauliers tie each trip to a job and consignee, record detention and halting charges, and bill from trip data, with driver advances settled against trip sheets.
Education and healthcare
College bus fleets and hospital ambulances manage route rosters, driver duty, preventive maintenance and fuel, with per-route cost reported to the trust.
Fleet projects start with your vehicle list, documents and a month of trip sheets. We study them remotely from Kochi, Kerala, and meet your dispatch team in Mangaluru to see how trips are assigned in practice. Configuration and GPS integration are done remotely. We return to Dakshina Kannada to train dispatchers and drivers, and remain on call through the first billing cycle.

In most cases, yes. If your GPS provider offers an API, the feed is linked to vehicles and trips in ERPNext for live status, distance and geofence alerts. We confirm this with the provider during discovery.
Advances given for a trip, fuel paid in cash, tolls, loading charges and daily allowance are entered against the trip and settled when the driver returns. The balance flows into payroll or is recovered, and accounts are updated automatically.
Yes. Route and schedule-based operations, daily collection by conductor, fuel and maintenance by bus, and permit tracking can all be configured. Private bus owners in Dakshina Kannada can see earnings per route and per bus.
