When running your courier service, one of the most important things to take care of is drivers! Making sure you have enough, managing and contacting the ones you have, and streamlining dispatching to drivers, it can be hard to keep it all straight. Luckily with digital courier software, driver management is simple and easy to do!

Dispatching Drivers with Ease

With support for an unlimited number of drivers, you won’t have problems migrating your current driver information onto digital courier systems. But with an unlimited number of drivers means that managing them and dispatching them will quickly become a struggle. If you have all of your drivers on different apps or on random email chains, it will be almost impossible to manage all of your drivers effectively and in a timely manner. However, with online courier software, you can access all your drivers in one easy to access location! With these systems, you can have a list of all your drivers, with easy numbering or labeling as well as detailed notes to make sure that driver information is current and accessible. From here, you can see which drivers are available and how many packages they are currently delivering. With all the information you need, just select a driver and click dispatch and you are good to go! No more manually keeping track of who is available at this time or who is already on a route, just check the system and dispatch!

Driver Communication

Once drivers are out on the road, it can be hard to track their routes or provide updates if addresses or times change. Being able to communicate with your drivers is imperative to making the most efficient deliveries. With Digital Waybill’s 2-way dispatch app with GPS tracking, you can stay in constant contact with all your drivers and can instantly update each other with pickups, drop offs, or any information changes. With Google Maps integrated tracking, you can follow the routes of your drivers to see when packages will arrive and find the right driver for every delivery. In the app the drivers will also instantly get notifications for order details and can collect customer signatures. Everything that your drivers need to effectively and efficiently deliver packages can be found in the app, as can everything that you need to track and manage your drivers’ deliveries!

Driver Feasibility

Of course, drivers are an integral part of your business, and as such, they are linked to your scalability and growth! With online courier services, there are flexible options to add branches and drivers as your business grows, scaling with your company needs. And with easy invoicing and driver reports, you’ll have all the information you need to make important decisions on growing your business. With Digital Waybill, managing, growing, and dispatching your fleet of drivers has never been easier, giving you time back to work on the rest of your business.
