Courier management software case study

How Hutech Solutions helps one of our client’s overall efficiency by 30%

Recently Hutech Solutions renovated a courier company that was struggling with an obsolete process into a flourishing operation, achieving an impressive 30% increase in operational efficiency.

Overview

One of our clients is India’s key player in the courier industry. When we discussed with the team, we noticed that the entire process faces technical crunches including damage-related issues and inefficiency in tracking. 

We also realized that the system could not cater appropriately to the end user’s requirement, leading to operational inefficiency. These issues will help streamline their workflow maximize the satisfaction of their customers and ensure that the system meets the unique requirements of their business.

Key Challenges

  • Limited Visibility into Fleet Performance: The client lacked real-time visibility into fleet performance using a centralized system resulting in difficulties in routing optimization, vehicle condition checks, and effective resource deployment.
  • Inadequate Communication among Teams: Poor communication between the dispatch, customer support, and logistics teams resulted in slow issue resolution. The breakdown affected decision-making, reducing efficiency by 30%. The main object is to enhance cross-functional communications to streamline operations and turnaround times.
  • High Operating Expenses: Manual scheduling and route planning led to high fuel and labor costs, which affected the profit margins and prevented the company from competing on price. This inefficiency limited the company’s potential for a 40% expansion. Optimizing operations is crucial to reduce costs and support growth.
  • Poor Data Management: The client had split data that was stored in silos and could not provide clear reports, thus causing bad decision-making and the failure to detect areas that can be improved or optimized. Lack of data cohesion poses hazards that compromise the safety and efficiency of overall operations.
  • Scalability: The system and processes in place did not handle the increasing demand of up to 45% loss for deliveries as a result, preventing the client from scaling their operation with the growth of the business.
  • Order Fulfillment Error: With manual order entry and tracking of shipment, there would be erroneous orders fulfilled as the expectation time was also compromised thereby leading to customer dissatisfaction and hence high returns or complaints.

How we helped

We created a proper blueprint and then developed a process. Our developer installed customized courier management software that fully fits their system.

 Key features of the software included:

  • Dynamic Fleet Management: The software allows the client to monitor the fleet in real-time to track vehicle performance and optimize maintenance schedules with guaranteed peak efficiency of operating the vehicles, thus eliminating maximum downtime and repair costs.
  • Customer Communication Integration: The firm integrated automated customer communication into the system, enabling it to send SMS or emails to customers to communicate updates on their orders with estimated delivery time and probable delay, which would eventually provide a better customer experience.

  • Scalability and Flexibility: Courier Management Software is engineered to grow with the customer’s evolving business needs by supporting more orders, intricate delivery networks, and new market penetration while maintaining service levels and operational simplicity.
  • Real-time Driver Performance Monitoring: The system monitors driver performance in real-time to enable customers to monitor efficiency, driving behavior, and fuel consumption, improving resource utilization and reducing operations costs.
  • Integrated Payment Systems: The solution provides seamless integration of payment, enabling the customer to pay for deliveries at different stages, thus allowing cash flow management and easing the billing process.
  • Geospatial Insights: Geospatial analytics are integrated into the software to give insights on delivery patterns, customer locations, and opportunities for route optimization to assist the client in planning a more efficient route and saving on fuel.
  • Improved inventory management: The system allows for comprehensive inventory management, which provides a real-time update about your stock. Therefore, it ensures efficient tracking and timely deliveries, preventing stockouts and overstocking.
