Vehicle visibility exists in one screen while dispatch decisions happen in another.
The proof of concept must preserve live delivery operations while showing that location data can enter the workflow dispatchers already trust.
Who you’d be doing this for
“My dispatchers are still calling drivers because the map they use never gets the live updates.”
Martin Machado · Dispatch Manager
Runs daily routing and delivery coordination for the food distributor’s refrigerated fleet.
What is at stake
Dispatchers can see pilot vehicles in one dashboard but still call drivers for delivery locations. You must weigh a fast proof of value against protecting the customer’s live dispatch workflow.
Why it isn’t already fixed
Every obvious fix costs something else. That’s the part you’d have to decide.
- fast proof of value vs. protected dispatch operations
- customer-specific mapping vs. reusable API pattern
- live vehicle data vs. testing-environment boundaries
- pilot deadline vs. product roadmap certainty
Why Samsara
Samsara Dashboard vehicle data and the Samsara Open API must prove operational value beyond a standalone map view.

This is the setup. The work is inside.
Running it puts you in the room: the full situation and its constraints, stakeholders who push back in their own words, and the decisions that are yours to make. What you produce becomes a Day One Plan — work you can show someone instead of describing.
