Industry
Logistics and transport
Fleets, couriers and distributors, where the paperwork follows the vehicle and the customer phones to ask where their delivery is.
The picture
Transport businesses run on documents that travel: delivery notes, waybills, signatures. When those come back to the office days later, invoicing is delayed, disputes are hard to settle and nobody knows in real time what has been delivered.
What usually goes wrong
The problems we keep seeing
-
Proof of delivery arrives days later
The signed note comes back with the driver at the end of the week, and the invoice waits for it.
-
Customers phone to ask where things are
Every one of those calls is somebody in the office ringing a driver, and neither call creates a record.
-
Fuel and maintenance are a black hole
Costs per vehicle are known in total and not per trip, so an unprofitable route looks the same as a profitable one.
-
Disputes are unwinnable
Without a timestamp, a photograph and a signature, a claim that a delivery never arrived is one word against another.
What we do about it
The work that fixes it
Each one is something we already do, with its own page and its own price. Nothing here is invented for this page.
