Enabling Fleet Business Agility with Platform Modernization

Driving agility and efficiency through platform modernization

A global transportation services company with over 440,000 rental vehicles struggled with agility, scalability, and operational inefficiencies due to its outdated legacy systems. GlobalLogic modernized the company’s rental platform, enabling scalable growth, optimizing vehicle utilization, and reducing costs. Implementing a microservices-based architecture and AI-driven automation helped the company improve pricing strategies, enhance user experience, and accelerate decision-making with real-time data insights.

The Challenge

A global transportation services company managing over 440,000 rental vehicles faced critical challenges that hindered its agility, scalability, and operational efficiency. Its legacy rental system was slow to adapt to market demands, limiting the rollout of new product features and making it difficult to respond to customer needs.

Inefficient vehicle tracking and scheduling led to underutilization, increasing operational costs and requiring costly manual interventions. Additionally, maintaining aging software consumed valuable resources, diverting focus from innovation. Complex workflows, slow onboarding, and a lack of guided decision-making also impacted employee productivity.

Remaining competitive called for the modernization of its rental platform, improved pricing strategies, and harnessing data-driven insights to optimize operations and reduce costs. Given this company’s goal of doubling the rental fleet to 1 million units by 2030, it needed a scalable, future-ready platform.

Value Created

GlobalLogic partnered with the client to modernize its rental platform through a structured approach:

  • Microservices-Based Architecture – Transitioned from monolithic systems to a scalable, domain-based API framework.
  • Automated Business Rule Engine – Enabled dynamic pricing, promotions, and location-based discounts.
  • AI-Enhanced Data Analytics – Provided real-time insights for asset reallocation and strategic decision-making.

GlobalLogic delivered a future-ready platform that improved efficiency, scalability, and business performance. Breaking down operational silos and integrating AI-powered automation were keys to this client’s success.

Impact

The platform modernization resulted in measurable business benefits:

  • 10% reduction in transportation costs – AI-driven asset reallocation minimized unnecessary truck movements.
  • Faster product innovation – Reduced time spent on system maintenance, allowing for new feature development.
  • Enhanced user experience – Improved reservation and pricing workflows boosted customer satisfaction.
  • Enterprise-wide data accessibility – Centralized decision-making enabled better route planning and disaster response.

Pioneering a next-gen enterprise architecture has given this client a resilient and scalable rental platform that drives revenue growth and operational efficiency.

GlobalLogic’s AI-powered platform modernization empowered the client to enhance agility, reduce costs, and optimize vehicle utilization.
