More than self-driving vehicles or machines

Autonomous Transport Solution by Volvo

Whether it be in a quarry, mine or on a highway, we offer a fully integrated autonomous transport solution that makes the movement of goods safer, more sustainable, and efficient. Our solutions are based on a Transport as a Service (TaaS) model and they are much more than an autonomous truck or machine. We offer an entire autonomous transport ecosystem with Volvo Autonomous Solutions as your single interface.

Here is how it works:

Virtual driver

The virtual driver is responsible for performing the dynamic task of driving within a pre-defined geographic area and conditions. Based on industry-leading hardware and software, virtual drivers that are integrated into our solutions are either created in-house or co-developed with industry-leading partners like Aurora.

Vehicle

Our vehicles and machines are purpose-built or adapted for autonomous driving with high integrity systems needed for safe and reliable operations.

Transport and Fleet Management

Whether it is controlling and tracking your fleet, planning routes, managing transport flows or haul cycles—with our transport and fleet management system, we ensure the efficient running of your operations. This includes monitoring performance, real-time updates on vehicles, loads and transport times as well as integration with your current TMS, FMS or ERP systems.

Infrastructure

Chargers, gates, barriers or communication systems—together with you we will define and implement the infrastructure needed to deploy autonomous transport solutions for your business.

Operations

Whether it is material transport, logistics, hauling or mining—we set up the entire autonomous transport operation for you. And depending on the needs of your business we take complete or partial ownership of the day-to-day management of your operations.

Uptime

We offer a tailored service, repair and maintenance program that ensures uptime and productivity for your business.

Payment

We are flexible when it comes to business models and payments. When you pay for autonomous transport capacity, our aim is to offer a payment experience that is seamless, straightforward and integrated with the relevant digital payment systems in your market.

Autonomy for a better future

Driver shortages, capacity constraints, harmful emissions, hazardous working

conditions – our industries are facing unprecedented challenges. Through autonomy we want to address these challenges and make the movement of goods safer, more sustainable, and efficient.
