Freight and Transportation Optimization for Heavy-Haul and Line-Haul in Saudi Arabia

Issues

The client was a large construction materials supplier reliant on heavy freight movement across Saudi Arabia. Rising transport costs and inconsistent fleet reliability hindered service performance and profitability. The company required a structured freight optimization strategy.

Solution

We developed a freight optimization framework incorporating route balancing, load consolidation strategies, telemetry adoption, and fuel efficiency monitoring. The solution improved fleet utilization and reduced unnecessary mileage.

Approach

  • Conducted fleet performance analysis and identified high-cost route segments.
  • Assessed load planning practices and opportunities for consolidation. → Introduced telemetry systems for driver performance and vehicle health monitoring.
  • Modeled optimized routes to minimize empty returns.
  • Developed performance dashboards tracking fleet KPIs.

Recommendations

We recommended implementing digital dispatching, adopting incentive-based driver performance schemes, and negotiating fuel-efficient fleet upgrades. Further advice included establishing cross-branch coordination for load sharing and optimizing delivery schedules.

Engagement ROI

Fleet utilization increased by 31%, fuel consumption decreased by 18%, and annual freight costs dropped by SAR 4.2 million. Transport reliability significantly improved across major project sites.
