LiteLink Technologies Inc. provided an update from the alpha version launched on December 24, 2018 of the 1SHIFT Logistics platform to a closed group of customers. LiteLink combines deep industry experience in logistics with technologies to create an ecosystem of shippers, third-party logistics companies, and trucking carriers to operate collaboratively with reduced effort, lower cost, and greater predictability. The 1SHIFT trials were planned with the objectives of delivering the capability for a shipper to select amongst a preferred set of carriers, and then track the shipment until successfully delivered. A trucker will provide trip status and flag any issues via the 1SHIFT mobile app to minimize the communications with all parties and quickly resolve any obstacles for on-time delivery. The upcoming user testing with truckers will include features such as capturing images for supporting dispute management, and trucker substitution in scenarios that are scheduled as well as unplanned (such as truck breakdowns). The continued trials will include the lessons learned during alpha trials so far and include a new set of features including: Deeper audit trail with details of each shipment to facilitate dispute resolution, insurance claims, and release of payments upon delivery confirmation. More comprehensive exception processes to further support in-transit changes to initial shipment plans. Self-service capabilities for user and profile management to prepare for scale and usability enhancements to both the web and mobile apps.
