Have you ever wondered how much staff
time is spent processing a package at your facility? From the moment
it arrives to it's ultimate delivery there may be several people
involved. Receiving and logging, attempting to contact the recipient
(often several attempts are necessary), delivering the package and
obtaining signatures are all time consuming tasks that are difficult
to measure.
Automating your process with package
tracking software is a great way to save time. In addition to
eliminating errors that occur through hand-logging, it is also much
faster to scan information off a bar code. Tracking numbers, date and
time stamps and other logistics are recorded automatically.
Manually notifying package recipients
can be a repetitive and time consuming process. By allowing your
tracking system to automatically e-mail or text a recipient, you not
only save time, but create a record of notification. Have you ever
wished you had a record like this for a missing package?
Yet another source of wasted time can
be failed attempts at deliveries. This is usually caused by poor
communications – for example, forwarding instructions that never
made it down to receiving. A good tracking system like SQBX can
associate specific instructions with a package, and will display
those instructions when a package is scanned in.
Staff time is valuable. If you're
paying staff to write down tracking numbers all day long, you're long
overdue for a demo of what cloud based tracking technology can do for
you.
