Technology & Visibility

Technology That Drives the Supply Chain Forward

At Transport Logistics, Inc., technology is more than a support system — it's a specialized discipline built into every step of freight execution.

ScanMan

ScanMan — Multi-Platform Scanning by All-Freight Supply Chain Technology

Freight visibility often fails not because systems don't exist, but because data is captured inconsistently, delayed, or disconnected from daily operations. ScanMan closes these gaps with consistent, real-time scanning at every physical handoff.

Inbound Scanning

Validate freight as soon as it arrives. Inbound scans verify quantities and flag discrepancies at the point of receipt.

Check Scanning

Ensure freight stays on the correct path through mid-process verification points.

Outbound Scanning

Confirm freight accuracy before departure, reducing mis-sorts and short-ships.

Delivery Scanning

Carton-level delivery validation with POD capture using precise timestamps and GPS coordinates.

How It Works

How Visibility Is Maintained

Our approach to visibility is built into daily operations — not layered on afterward. Consistent scanning, standardized handling, and defined workflows ensure freight status remains clear from receipt through final delivery.

  1. Inbound freight is received and identified. Shipments are scanned as they enter the network, creating a consistent starting point for tracking and reporting.
  2. Freight is consolidated and routed. Pallets are assigned to routes and delivery schedules using standardized processes that support accurate handling and predictable execution.
  3. Delivery activity is confirmed at the stop level. Scanning and confirmation at delivery locations provide clear insight into when and where freight is completed.
  4. Visibility is maintained throughout the process. Operations teams maintain ongoing insight into freight status, exceptions, and delivery progress without relying on manual updates.

Reporting

Real-Time Scanning & Operational Reporting

Scan activity is available within seconds of occurring, allowing operations teams to monitor execution as it happens — not after delivery is complete.

End-to-End Scan Visibility
  • • Inbound scans when freight is unloaded from trailers, including damage notation
  • • Scans when cartons are assigned to store-specific pallets
  • • Verification scans when pallets or cartons are loaded for delivery
  • • Delivery confirmation scans at the store or destination
Exception & Correction Tracking
  • • Identification of cartons scanned to incorrect store pallets
  • • Visibility into correction activity when mis-sorts are resolved
  • • Documentation of attempted deliveries to incorrect locations
Proof of Delivery & Route Insight
  • • Digital and physical proof of delivery submissions
  • • Real-time visibility into where a driver is on their route
  • • Estimated delivery times that update dynamically based on route progress
Claims

Proactive Claims Identification & Handling

Claims are most effective when identified early. Our systems automatically flag potential claim events as they occur, rather than relying on delayed reporting or manual follow-up.

  • • Potential claims are identified through scan activity and exception data
  • • Events are flagged automatically for internal review
  • • Our team reviews flagged items within one to two business days
  • • Claims are handled proactively, without requiring customers or carriers to manage the process

By addressing issues close to when they occur, claims are resolved more efficiently and do not linger for months before action is taken.

Operational Impact

Built for Operations Teams

Visibility is only valuable if it improves how teams operate day to day. Our approach is designed to support faster decisions, clearer communication, and fewer surprises throughout the delivery process.

  • Faster issue identification. Problems are surfaced earlier, allowing teams to respond before delays compound.
  • Fewer inbound status calls. Clear, consistent visibility reduces the need for manual check-ins and follow-ups.
  • Standardized delivery data. Information is captured in a consistent format across routes, locations, and service areas.
  • Clear accountability at the stop level. Confirmed delivery activity supports accuracy, reporting, and performance review.
Human Support

Technology Backed by Real People

Visibility systems are only effective when someone is actively monitoring them, responding to exceptions, and ensuring data reflects reality on the ground. Our technology is supported by real operations and customer support teams who understand the freight, the routes, and the delivery environment.

When issues arise, customers speak directly with knowledgeable people — not automated systems, ticket queues, or chatbots. Support is available 24 hours a day, every day of the year.
