Proof of Delivery and a Whole Lot More i-gistics®
Mobile Delivery software operates on Intermec mobile computers and provides proof of delivery to reduce lost shipments and avoid delivery disputes. But i-gistics goes beyond simple proof of delivery, by automating your entire pick-up and delivery process to extend shipment visibility beyond the distribution center.

The Right Shipment at the Right Place at the Right Time
i-gistics Mobile Delivery provides drivers with an electronic customer manifest containing detailed delivery and pick-up information. Items can be scanned to ensure accurate delivery. Exceptions, adjustments, damages and returns can be noted electronically. Pick-up information can also be collected and communicated to improve load planning for outbound shipments. Integration with your enterprise systems increases the accuracy of your information by eliminating paper and error-prone data entry.

Improved Operational Efficiency
Wireless data messages allow driver and dispatcher to communicate more effectively in real-time. The software minimizes phone calls by allowing the driver to send and receive regular status updates, such as arrival or departure times and delays with a push of a button. Drivers can receive messages even when away from the truck making unanswered calls a thing of the past. This improves operational efficiency to speed delivery and increase the numbers of stops the drivers can make.

Set Yourself Apart from the Competition
i-gistics Mobile Delivery allows for realtime shipment tracking so you can proactively manage customer expectations by knowing the shipment location and time of arrival. You can also capture time and charges for value-added services such as product installation or setup. Combined, these factors improve customer satisfaction by enabling you provide prompt, reliable delivery and service.
