GeoPal for Transport & Logistics
GeoPal web and mobile app improves visibility, scheduling efficiency and
proof of delivery while reducing costs for Transport & Logistics businesses.
Mobile Data Collection – Text, photo, GPS location, signature, barcode and RFID scanning
plus many other customizable mobile form features.
Location Tracking – GPS location tracking visible on the map in real-time. Interactive
layers show employees, customers, and asset locations if required.
Route Replay & Shift Clock – Promote efficient fuel usage and time-keeping by monitoring
routes driven and drivers’ active working time.
Real-Time Reporting – Information is securely and accurately transferred instantly from the
mobile app to the web management system for real-time analysis.
• Limited visibility of drivers, vehicles, or equipment during transportation.
• Lost, incomplete, or delayed paperwork = no proof of delivery and inaccurate records
• Delays in invoicing and reporting, due to time needed to process paperwork
• Inefficiencies in work scheduling because real-time driver locations are unknown
• Time theft or padding of hours worked reduces driver availability
Common problems in Transport & Logistics
Enhanced Visibility and Location Tracking
• Driver routes and locations can be tracked in real-time using GeoPal,
enabling on-the-spot scheduling changes and making more efficient
use of the driver’s active working time.
• Especially suitable for businesses that drive different routes each day.
Dynamic location tracking enables real-time updates on progress and
delivery times for customers.
• If transporting customer vehicles or using owned vehicles without
in-vehicle tracking, GeoPal enables visibility of ALL drivers.
• If drivers must leave the vehicle, GeoPal can track them on foot also.
Problems Solved by GeoPal
“We have gained visibility and efficiency through location and shift tracking, which
enables forward planning of driver availability. We can now strategically plan based
on where drivers are and the location of our vehicles, because of GeoPal.”
Chris Pickering, IT Manager, Accident Exchange, UK
“We utilise a lot of customer equipment and we had no visibility. We use an on-board
tracking device for our own vehicles, but we have no tracking in our customers’
vehicles. Now with GeoPal we can track all our drivers.”
Allen Wilkinson, Director of Operations, Eagle One, USA
