Palletforce, Europe’s leading logistics network, continues its investment in innovation and technology by unveiling its electronic proof of delivery (ePOD) app, cementing the company’s position at the forefront of the sector. Building on its Best use of Technology accolade at last year’s Motor Transport Awards, the roll-out of the ePOD2 app will see Palletforce pioneer a number of unique new features to drive quality, safety and service throughout the network. Key features: • Real-time vehicle tracking • Notifications • Trigger tracking events • Send updates to consignees via SMS, email and twitter • Scan Paperwork • Perform vehicle checks The ePOD app links seamlessly with the Palletforce’s Alliance system to provide enhanced tracking of freight, live updates for members and their customers and the provision of an accurate proof of location in addition to the proof of delivery. The system will also allow drivers to report whether a delivery point is residential or commercial, enabling Palletforce to build up a comprehensive database to highlight home deliveries and improve future manifesting and routing. The ePOD system was originally developed in 2011, and Palletforce was the first network to deploy it across the entire member fleet. The new app will see Palletforce provide a complete package to members, supplying hardware, software, airtime and centralised support. The ePOD upgrade is part of a major new tranche of investment in industry-leading technology and innovation to be rolled out this year.
