Haulage and Logistics
The PODFather software provides a fully integrated backoffice traffic and mobile PDA system. With the flexibility to be used either stand-alone, or completely integrated with existing IT systems, The PODFather scales to cope with haulage and logistics operations of all sizes.
The PODFather is designed to track jobs from the transport office to drivers, and back again via mobile networks. Electronic proof of delivery tickets (PODs) are received by both office staff and customers within seconds of a delivery being completed, where it is automatically archived, and further processed for invoicing.
By removing paper PODs from the business, many problems are eliminated, including:
- Improved cashflow: delayed invoicing due to paperwork not being returned on time;
- Reduced admin: overheads of manually entering completed PODs into back-office systems;
- Improved customer service: you gain the ability to automatically advise your customers as their deliveries are completed, and provide a transparent audit trail of deliveries (including photos of delivered goods)
- Increased sales: real-time POD is becoming a common demand from customers - make sure you stay ahead of your competitors
