Order Fulfilment
Order Fulfilment System (OFS)
OFS is a software application designed for businesses who need to track individual consignments from their customers into their operations, sort them into delivery routes (either fixed milk runs or dynamically) and then dispatch them on their way. The solution can work with both pre-advice and / or simple ad-hoc receipting. The solution uses mobile computers connected via WiFi and dovetails effectively with our 2020ePOD or the Track & Trace Manager solution.
