Thesis on the topic of unsupervised learning at Service24h from April 2026
UNS At Daimler Truck, we are changing the transport system of today and jointly achieve real effect. We take responsibility worldwide and work together as a global team. We are driving our progress and success together – each: at Daimler Truck makes the difference. Together we want to reduce our carbon footprint, increase safety on and off the road, develop smarter technologies and attractive financial solutions. All this is essential to achieve our goal – for all those who move the world. Become part of our global team: You make the difference – YOU MAKE US Customer Services & Parts is responsible for the global service and parts business for Mercedes-Benz Trucks. Within the area, our department is responsible for the International Pannendienst “Service24H” and provides quick help in numerous countries with clearly defined processes and the control of external service providers. Within the department, the Planning and Analytics team is responsible for defining, collecting and analyzing all relevant key figures used in the end-to-end process. They serve as an important influence for the daily business of the department in the management of the service providers: inside and out markets, the quality of after-sales services and customer support: inside and the strategic orientation of the department and after-sales services. As part of this thesis, the efficiency of the dispatch process is to be analyzed. The Dispatch Process is a sub-process of the Service24h, which includes the case intake by a telephone agent, the examination of necessary payment guarantees and the assignment to a nearby workshop. The aim of the final work is to identify the causes and responsibilities for over-average processing times by means of modern unsupervised learning approaches (in particular clustering and dimensionality reduction). In particular, the focus is on so-called “long-runners”, i.e. cases in which the time span between case-taking and dispatch lies clearly above the average. To this end, the existing data base is to be processed in a structured manner and optimized with respect to relevant features. Various algorithms of Unsupervised Learning are tested and the results are evaluated using defined metrics and compared to manual analysis methods and existing models. The work includes the continuous improvement of the feature engineering strategy. In addition, the results are considered critical in terms of their practical benefits for service optimization. .
