In the transportation and logistics industry, manual tracking and reporting processes often lead to inefficiencies, errors, and delays. Traditional methods of managing shipments involve paper-based documentation, manual reporting of departure and arrival times, and reliance on telematics devices for tracking. These methods are prone to human errors, lack real-time visibility, and result in increased operational costs.
Drivers can easily report departure and arrival times directly through the app, eliminating the need for manual documentation and reducing human errors. Timestamps captured by the app provide accurate records of each leg of the journey, facilitating better scheduling and planning.
Sky app updates the current location of the vehicle in the background, providing real-time tracking and visibility of shipments within SAP GTT. Continuous location updates enable proactive decision-making and improved ETA calculations.
The app provides regular updates on the truck's geolocation, enabling stakeholders to monitor shipments' progress throughout the journey. Real-time geolocation data facilitates route optimization, risk management, and proactive exception handling.
Unlike traditional tracking solutions that rely on telematics devices, Sky app operates independently on mobile devices, eliminating the need for additional hardware and infrastructure. This reduces implementation complexity, upfront costs, and maintenance efforts, making the solution more accessible and scalable.
The app enables drivers to capture proof of delivery using digital signatures, ensuring a secure and tamper-proof method of verifying deliveries. Digital POD eliminates the need for paper-based documentation, reducing administrative overhead and improving efficiency.
Seamless integration with SAP TM and SAP GTT ensures efficient data exchange and synchronization between the tracking app and enterprise systems. Data consistency across platforms enables accurate reporting and analytics, leading to improved operational efficiency and decision-making.
Sky app supports digital Consignment Note (CMR), digitizing the documentation process and reducing paperwork for drivers and logistics operators. Digital CMR enhances data accuracy, compliance, and accessibility, improving overall operational efficiency and auditability.
Automation of tracking and reporting processes minimizes the risk of human errors, leading to more accurate data and improved operational efficiency.
Integration with SAP TM and SAP GTT ensures data consistency, enabling better decision-making, improved customer service, and enhanced supply chain visibility.
Digital CMR and seamless data exchange streamline documentation processes, ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements and enhancing operational efficiency.
Digital proof of delivery and documentation eliminates paperwork, reduces administrative overhead, and improves data integrity and accessibility.
Real-time location updates and regular geolocation reporting provide stakeholders with enhanced visibility and control over shipments, enabling proactive management of logistics operations.
Elimination of telematics integration and reduction in manual processes lead to cost savings in hardware, infrastructure, and administrative overhead.
Overall, Sky – The Tracking App (mobile based) enables a driver to report key events like departure, arrival, proof-of-delivery with digital signature and update current locations in the background to SAP Global Track and Trace.
