Problem
Freight operators often lack real-time visibility into shipment location, temperature, and shock events, leading to missed alerts, damaged goods, lost pallets, and inefficient communication with drivers and stakeholders.
Solution
Delivery Chain offers an IoT‑enabled freight monitoring platform that continuously tracks shipments using geofencing, accelerometers, and temperature sensors. The system automatically generates real‑time alerts when assets cross predefined waypoints or exceed temperature and shock thresholds, and it delivers these notifications to relevant parties. Integrated mobile applications and a REST API allow users to receive alerts, view live location data, and access automatically processed documents such as bills of lading and proof‑of‑delivery. By consolidating sensor data, alerts, and documentation into a single, secure enterprise‑grade platform, the solution reduces manual check‑ins, improves incident response, and provides actionable insights for logistics planning.
Target Audience
Primary customers are shippers, 3PLs, carriers, and cargo owners who need continuous visibility and automated incident reporting for their freight operations.
Features
- Geofencing engine that triggers instant notifications when shipments enter or leave designated zones
- Accelerometer and temperature sensors that detect shock events and temperature excursions, logging time and GPS coordinates
- Automatic, configurable alerts sent via email, SMS, or API to drivers, shippers, and other stakeholders
- Real‑time tracking dashboard with map view, status of in‑motion vs. at‑rest inventory, and event history
- Automated document processing that captures BOLs, PODs, weight certificates, and other freight paperwork and pushes them to connected systems
- RESTful API and mobile app integration for seamless data exchange with existing transportation management systems
