ePOD

We will work with you to automate your proof of delivery processes. ePOD (electronic proof of delivery) means there are no paper tickets involved in the process of delivering goods or services to your customers.  You get peace of mind, real-time visibility and total control. Capture photos, signatures, and delivery confirmations as soon as it happens.  

For those companies where visibility is key, our ePOD solution helps close the loop on all material movements, giving you accurate, and timely information about what items have been moved where.
