Startup Story: TransportSimple | Re-defining Administration Of The Logistics Industry

TransportSimple Founder

Founded by father-son duo Hardeep Singh and Jasdeep Singh in 2018, TransportSimple offers fleet management services to logistics businesses.

Referring to the current working way of the logistics industry as chaotic, time-consuming, error-prone, and lacking owner visibility, Jasdeep says the startup with its services streamline logistics operations.

How TransportSimple Started?

When Jasdeep joined his family trucking and logistics business three years back, at that time, the business was managed using multiple spreadsheets, accounting applications, and manual registers which caused losses and delays.

So, to manage the business properly, Jasdeep started looking for a better solution to manage, but couldn’t find any.

But soon he realised, other fleet owners and transporters were facing similar challenges and saw an opportunity.

So, to streamline business operations, account handling for easy administration, and other logistics-related services, Jasdeep with his father started TransportSimple.

TransportSimple is a one-stop solution to manage the day to day operations, including Trip Tracking, GST compliant Accounting, Party Management, Maintenance with Tyre summary, and timely notifications.

The startup further scaled up its services by working with startup incubator NSRCEL, IIM-Bangalore.

Also, as per the startup, their software allows fleet owners to ensure a ‘predictive maintenance’ approach rather than ‘reactive maintenance’.

“TransportSimple eliminates the error-prone task of manual accounting and helps decision-makers get instant access to the reports. Users can manage day-to-day operations such as trip and inventory tracking, maintenance and employee summary, GST compliant accounting modules with necessary filing reports, and live performance monitoring. The analytics-driven charts and reports help reduce downtime, malpractice, and expenses, thus increasing the profits.”
