Why trip costing matters
A Busy Truck Can Still Be an Unprofitable Truck.
Transport operators often see fuel immediately because it is paid frequently. Maintenance, tyre replacement and depreciation arrive later, so they are easier to ignore when quoting.
The toolkit reserves for those costs at trip or kilometre level so a route that looks busy does not quietly consume the vehicle and destroy margin.
