Thanks to the implementation, our clients can make their business decisions quicker. They can speed up the invoicing process and react to their customer’s needs faster.
The implementation made the drivers’ work, as well as handling LTL shipment more efficient. Terminals automatically create load registers and gather availability status. The drivers have access to data on all packages and can plan the order of delivery queue individually. The device also reminds of additional services connected with e.g. delivering package at given hour or reclaiming documents.
