Logistics service providers, including freight forwarders, transportation companies, and warehouses, are constantly on the lookout for the perfect software solution.
They strive to move away from outdated custom-made systems or realise that their current Excel files and processes are insufficient to meet the rapidly changing customer demands.
This has led to a growing number of LSPs joining the ranks and selecting Boltrics‘ branch standard solution. However, the question remains: how standard is this standard?
A Unified Solution, with Unlimited Flexibility
Boltrics’ philosophy revolves around providing a single software version that assists logistics service providers worldwide in streamlining their operations.
We refer to this version as the branch standard. But here’s the thing: applying this single version to your specific processes is anything but standard.
The software is still fully customisable, allowing you to configure functionalities and workflows based on your business’ unique requirements.
In other words, the standard functionalities can be flexibly adapted to align with your specific processes.
Unlocking the Advantages of Collaborating with Logistics Service Providers
The primary advantage of offering a single software version is that you can continuously benefit from the latest developments in the logistics industry.
These advancements are often inspired by the needs of other logistics service providers, with Boltrics solution having input from 200+ organisations. By working together as a collective, a robust and future-proof software solution has been developed to help optimise for your operations.
What is developed for one customer becomes available to all others through regular updates.
Let’s take a recent example: a new Transport Management System (TMS) functionality was introduced called ‘Irregularities’.
This feature supports your Customer Service department by capturing deviations in the delivery process, such as instances of “not at home” or “damaged,” or any other label that represents an irregularity in the process.
This functionality is now a standard part of Boltrics’ software. However, how you capture and handle irregularities and how they interact with other actions in your TMS application is entirely up to you.
For instance, you can set up direct email communication with the customer from the ‘Irregularity document.’
Alternatively, you can automatically generate a second delivery or trigger a function that includes the delivery in your plan overview and separately invoices the additional trip.
The level of flexibility is entirely configurable to meet your specific needs.
Future-proof your business with an always up-to-date solution
So, while the functionalities are readily available in our 3PL Dynamics software, how you utilise them depends on you and your key users during implementation.
Nevertheless, be rest assured that Boltrics ensures you are always up-to-date with the latest software advancements, and any bugs associated with updates are promptly identified and resolved in the application, benefiting everyone who operates on the same version.
In summary, Boltrics’ branch standard solution offers the benefits of a standardised software platform while providing the flexibility of a custom-made system, giving you the best of both worlds for your deployment.
This approach ensures you stay current with the latest software features, while allowing you to tailor the system to your unique requirements.
Together, we build a powerful software solution for the logistics industry, continually improving and advancing to meet the evolving needs of logistics service providers worldwide.
If you’re eager to see how 3PL Dynamics can transform your logistics operations, we invite you to take the next step.
