PART 2 | How digitalization is revolutionizing fleet management in the age of sustainability: Vietnam context and Dibee's role

In Part 1 of this series, we explored how digitalization is transforming global fleet management, driving both operational efficiency and sustainability. The ability to track emissions, optimize routes, and predict maintenance needs is enabling fleet owners to reduce their carbon footprints while streamlining operations. But how do these global trends apply to Vietnam, an emerging market grappling with environmental challenges amid rapid industrialization?


In this article, we dive deeper into how digitalization is shaping fleet management in Vietnam, and how Dibee is helping companies comply with local regulations, measure and report vehicle emissions, and enhance sustainability efforts.


1. Measuring emissions for sustainability

As the market shifts towards a greener and more environmentally friendly economy, measuring and managing emissions becomes a critical step in building a sustainable fleet. By accurately tracking emissions, companies can reduce their environmental impact, comply with regulations, and cut long-term costs.


  • Why greenhouse gas emissions matter: Transportation is one of the major contributors to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Measuring and managing vehicle carbon footprints is increasingly a legal obligation as governments impose stricter regulations to curb emissions.


  • Methods for emission measurement: Dibee’s system, integrated with various digital platforms like GPS and TMS systems, helps gather critical transportation data such as fuel consumption, fuel types, vehicle models, cargo weight, vehicle usage, and more. This data serves as the input for emissions calculations. Prioritizing globally recognized methodologies, such as the GLEC Framework or ISO standards, Dibee ensures accurate and high-standard emissions reporting. This simplifies emissions tracking and reporting, pushing companies toward their sustainability goals.

  • Emissions reduction and offsetting: Accurately measuring emissions is just the beginning. Dibee’s sustainability tools provide insights into how companies can reduce emissions. These strategies include transitioning to greener fuels, upgrading to more fuel-efficient vehicles, maintaining appropriate vehicle maintenance schedules, and investing in carbon offset projects such as reforestation.


  • Cost savings through sustainability: Sustainability is not just about compliance—it makes financial sense. By optimizing fleet operations and managing emissions effectively, companies can reduce significantly fuel consumption, lower maintenance costs, and shrink their carbon footprint. The result is a win-win of both environmental and economic benefits.


2. Vietnam’s sustainability landscape in fleet management


Vietnam, though still a developing country, is already taking practical steps toward sustainability. At COP 26, Vietnam government has set ambitious targets to reduce GHG emissions and combat climate change, with Decree 06/2022/NĐ-CP and Decision 13/2024/QD-TTg being the latest regulations driving this change.


  • Decree 06/2022/NĐ-CP: This decree, part of Vietnam's commitment to global climate change mitigation, sets the groundwork for GHG reduction and the future establishment of a domestic carbon market.

    • From 2023 to 2025, organizations listed under Clause 1, Article 5 of this Decree are required to develop and implement emission reduction measures suited to their business operations. The emission reduction plan must be built and get approval from 2026 to 2030, with the ultimate goal of achieving "Net Zero" emissions by 2050.

    • Vietnam plans to pilot a carbon credit trading platform by 2025, with the official national carbon market expected to commence operations in 2028. This initiative will allow companies to trade carbon credits, partly helping them meet their emission reduction targets.


  • Decision 13/2024/QD-TTg: Following Decision 01/2022/QD-TTg, this decision expanded the number of organizations required to comply with GHG reduction efforts from 1,912 to 3,120, including 89 transportation – logistics companies. This demonstrates the government’s dedication to transitioning industries toward a low-emission future.
