Administration Portal
ShipTrack includes a dedicated administration portal that delivers point & click simplicity for overall configuration and management of the workflows as well as detailed analytics and reporting. The administration portal allows the user to configure the basic workflows that will then be used in the other ShipTrack modules. Some of the things you can do from the Administration Portal:
- Create and manage service types
- Manage rules around ETA’S and Service Levels
- Manage users and roles
- Manage rules at the company and client level
- Create mobile workflow and build update menus for mobile and web applications
- Import and export data
Reporting and Data Analytics
For internal or third party logistics providers the requirement to measure and report on the performance of operations is critical for many reasons:
- To monitor day-to-day operational performance
- To report on contractual objectives (SLA’s) with customers
- To report on regulatory compliance. ShipTrack offers easy access to creating canned reports as well as custom on the spot reports in an easy to use search tool.
For more advanced reporting and analytical analysis functions, all of our data can be automatically exported to a third party system or a data warehouse in order to create predictive analytics using AI or BI tools such as Descartes Analytics.
Productivity Leverage automated processes for more effective dispatch, order processing, and driver management.
Service Provide both your customers and CSRs with real-time access to shipment information, reducing call-centre volume and enabling first-call resolution.
Retention and Safety Monitor compliance and ensure driver safety with safety checklists and turn-by-turn directions
Route Optimization
Selecting the optimal route to deliver a parcel in the past was dependent on the experience and knowledge of the dispatcher. In today’s complex and fast-paced logistics environment with staff turnover and constantly increasing workloads, automation is the only way to remain competitive. Route optimization algorithms built-into ShipTrack route planning app ensure every delivery order is delivered in the fastest and most efficient way possible. By accounting for many more variables that a human could possibly manage, ShipTrack’s route planning app increases delivery capacity, reduces staff workloads and enables compliance to delivery SLA’s.

Driver/Vehicle Management
ShipTrack’s mobile & route planning app for delivery drivers is a simple-to-use iOS or Android app that receives incoming delivery orders and communicates the status of deliveries automatically and in real-time to ShipTrack’s cloud-based system. It also includes safety checklists as well as features like one touch integration to the Waze app that contribute not only to more efficient deliveries but to driver safety and accessibility as well. ShipTrack has the ability to assign vehicles to routes and drivers to vehicles in order to create a clear picture of what is happening operationally.
Tracking Page & Tracking Widget
Significantly reduce the number of calls to your Customer Service department by installing the ShipTrack tracking widget on your website to enable customers to easily enter a tracking number to get immediate status on shipments or orders.
Once they use the widget they will access a fully-branded, self-service web tracking page that allows customers to track the progress of any shipment or order.
