If you feel like every minute counts when you’re waiting for a shipment, you’re not alone. In a world where everyone is in a hurry, patience has become a luxury. Discover how real-time tracking satisfies our thirst for immediacy.
What is real-time tracking?
Real-time tracking is a technological tool that allows you to monitor the location and status of a shipment from the moment it leaves its point of origin until it arrives at its destination. Through GPS devices, sensors and advanced communication technology, it is possible to obtain updated information on the exact location, transit conditions, weather changes, among others.
The customer at the center
Beyond technology and operational efficiency, real-time tracking puts the customer at the heart of logistics. By offering them the opportunity to track their package at any time, companies not only improve their service, but also strengthen the relationship and trust with their users.
4 Benefits of real-time monitoring
-
Increased visibility
Customers and businesses can know precisely where their shipment is at any time. This builds confidence and reduces calls or complaints related to package status uncertainty.
-
Route optimization
With real-time data, you can identify obstacles or problems on the route and reroute the shipment efficiently.
-
Cost reduction
Avoiding delays and errors saves on costs associated with returns, reshipments or compensation.
-
Improved decision making
With up-to-date information, companies can make more informed decisions about the management and distribution of their shipments.
Technologies behind real-time tracking
- GPS (Global Positioning System): allows determining the exact location of a shipment anywhere in the world.
- IoT (Internet of Things): interconnected sensors and devices that collect and transmit information on the status and conditions of the shipment.
- Cloud platforms: allow large amounts of data to be stored and processed, making it easily accessible from any device, anywhere.
- Artificial Intelligence (AI): helps to foresee potential problems, optimize routes and improve the efficiency of the logistics process.
Future expectations
As we move into the 21st century, reliance on technology for logistics will intensify. We can envision a future where the customer not only knows where their package is, but can interact virtually with it, receive delivery estimates based on artificial intelligence that considers multiple factors in real time, and even modify delivery destinations en route with just a click of a button.
The possibilities are limitless and at FR Logísticos, we are committed to being at the forefront of these advances, always putting the customer at the center of innovation.
