Background
This global shipping company operates a large number of warehouses servicing key global retailers, who have strict Load Quality policies and checks. Managing load quality assurance is vital for every load.
Challenge
Due to high quality demands, this customer manually takes photos of every layer of goods loaded into a trailer or container. While this slows down the loading process it helps to enable load quality assurance through Sentispec Handler. However, pictures are sometimes forgotten or misplaced, or have a low quality impeding or preventing any possibility of claims being handled effectively.
Solution
By mounting cameras on the loading trucks, and connecting them to the Sentispec platform, images are routinely captured for each shipment, with consistent quality. What is more, they are easily searchable digitally.
The huge advantage is that the customer will spend less time processing claims, and have a higher rejection rate, whilst freeing up manpower for critical tasks.
