For example: order input automation, driver and parcel tracking, route optimisation, and automatic notifications including sending out invoices, all from a centralised platform ‘your new Back Office System‘.

Courier delivery system should be easy & flexible to integrate. Should be easy to use, save time and money for the business owner.
Route Optimisation
Unlike other types of business’s, successful logistics require thorough understanding of the best routes to take. Imagine needing to travel to Oxford and then back to London, just to deliver a parcel to Birmingham in England, do you use the The M40 motorway, or, another road which may be more ideal. Answers to these types of questions can easily be answered using Courier Management Software.
Because an efficient route planning is critical for a successful courier business operations. A robust courier management software such as Delivery Master should provide advanced route optimisation capabilities. Such features organises delivery routes to maximize efficiency, leading to significant savings in vehicle maintenance, fuel costs, and courier driver labor hours. It takes into account factors such as delivery time windows, geographical considerations, and more. With the right software by your courier business’s side, you can effortlessly dispatch optimised routes to your drivers.
Tracking
Real-time visibility into important activities such as fleet and parcel tracking is essential for making informed decisions. Using technology, you can now easily monitor key metrics like which drivers are currently on duty, their pending assignments, and their precise location.
Depending on delivery business model, one may load the small van or the 10 tonner early in the morning and head out to pre-determined customer base. On the other hand, a courier business may pickup items, drop them off and pickup more (multi-drop) along the daily journey.
Functionality empowers business owners / dispatchers to balance workloads effectively and efficiently. Additionally, todays’ demanding consumers want to access parcel tracking information, enabling them to monitor the progress of their deliveries in real-time.
Delivery Master Back Office System + Driver Mobile App tied in to Customer Web Portal works in perfect symphony allowing greater productivity.
Automatic Notifications
Customers today expect timely updates on the status of their deliveries. Courier management software enables you to set up automatic notifications that inform customers of any changes in delivery status, including order receipt, invoice, and successful delivery. These notifications not only reduce the likelihood of failed deliveries but also enhance customer satisfaction, ultimately driving business growth.
Using your new software application a customer makes an online booking simply by using their smartphone, and voila, you receive an e-booking notification in your Back Office System. The customer online booking automatically inputs all the job’s details into your Delivery Master Back Office System. As soon as your office staff have confirmed and allocated the job, the customer can track any entered POB & POD information using the Customer Web Portal’s Order History screen. Not long ago, there was a primitive way to accomplish all this, today, there is a better way.
